Jay Leno Drives Chevy Camaro Concept
Jay Leno makes an appearance with the Chevrolet Camaro Concept in Burbank, California.
Retro design, when it's done right, leaves an unmistakable impression of a beloved icon with a simple glance, instantly conjuring memories of simpler, often happier, times. With automobiles, retro design is a fountain of youth rendered in sheetmetal and horsepower, a chance to own brand new what we coveted decades ago, but with the benefit of modern engineering and safety advancements. And so it is with the Chevrolet Camaro Concept, which debuted at the 2006 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. A glance brings the late 1960s flooding back, but with details that clearly speak the design vocabulary of the 21st century.
Those 1967-69 first-generation Chevrolet Camaros took the country by storm and kicked off a so-called "pony car war" that lasted until the fourth-generation Camaro bit the dust shortly after the turn of the century. Chevy sold hundreds of thousands of Camaros in each of the last three years of the Sixties, took them racing and won two Trans-Am titles, and gave the Ford Mustang a run for its money on the track and in the showroom. It is this icon that Chevrolet looked to for inspiration while designing the Chevy Camaro Concept.
Performance and value are Camaro hallmarks, and while this automobile is strictly a concept for now because GM hasn't decided whether to build it, the company's global product guru, Bob Lutz, admitted that "astonishing value" was a goal in creating the Camaro Concept.
Under the Chevrolet Camaro Concept's long hood, which is shaped to mimic the old cowl-induction hood of Chevys past, is a Corvette-sourced 6.0-liter V8 engine making 400 horsepower. It's hooked to a six-speed manual transmission that drives the rear wheels, and includes Active Fuel Management technology to shut down four of the motor's eight cylinders when cruising on the highway. Chevrolet says that this car could get as much as 30 miles per gallon on the open road.
Unlike the Ford Mustang even the Shelby GT500 the Chevrolet Camaro Concept gets a four-wheel independent suspension, MacPherson struts in front with a multilink rear setup, equipped with progressive rate coil springs and gas shocks. Massive 21-inch front wheels and 22-inch rear rims front ventilated 14-inch discs with four-piston calipers. The cast aluminum wheels are a sharp-edged five-spoke design with a bright silver finish, and wear 275/30 tires in front and 305/30 rubber in back.
The Chevy Camaro Concept has room inside for four, but like that first-generation car after which it's patterned, the small back seats are best used only for short trips. Anyone familiar with the original Camaro will find themselves right at home in this concept vehicle, thanks to deeply hooded twin gauges residing in squared-off binnacles and viewed through a three-spoke steering wheel. Instrumentation is an exercise in minimalism, and the Camaro Concept's dominant color is black. Silver and orange accents add visual interest without making the cabin gaudy.
Thanks to its triangular rear quarter windows, broad creased shoulders, Coke-bottle waistline, and hooded headlamps, this Chevy concept car is instantly recognizable as a first-generation Camaro. Add to that quad taillights and sexy dual exhaust outlets, and you've got the look of the original front to back and side to side. But mixed with the classic design elements is a sharp-edged muscularity that is increasingly common in modern sporting machines, balancing the retro theme with a healthy dose of contemporary style.
When the first Camaro debuted, Baby Boomers were teenagers. Today, they're retiring with more wealth than any preceding generation. Will Chevrolet build the Camaro? We'd say it's all but a done deal, especially with the Dodge Challenger Concept widely rumored to be hitting the road by the end of this decade.
Let the pony car wars begin!
