Now Chevrolet has revealed the Convertible alternative for those who want the face-lift and removable hat. Unlike other convertibles that lose a fair amount of performance by altering the structure this 6th generation example benefits from a stiffer, lighter structure that helps reduce total weight by 200punds compared to the 5th generation Camaro.\u00a0The base model will come with a 2.0-liter turbo four, rated at 275 horsepower. It will be joined by a 3.6-liter V-6 model with 335 hp, and at the top of the range, for now at least, will be a V-8-powered SS with a 455-hp 6.2-liter LT1 V-8 borrowed from the Corvette Stingray. Transmissions will include six-speed manual and eight-speed automatic units.<\/p>\n<p>Photo &amp; Story via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.motorauthority.com\/news\/1098845_2016-chevrolet-camaro-convertible-live-photos-interactive-video\">MotorAuthority<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fkuHEcDoyDw\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>The 6th generation Camaro Convertible has been scheduled to come out early next year.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":16176,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[543],"tags":[2718,2972,2971,39,542,1994],"class_list":["post-16175","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sports-car-racing","tag-2016-chevrolet-camaro","tag-6th-generation-camaro","tag-camaro-convertible","tag-chevrolet","tag-road-racing","tag-sports-cars"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/2016-chevrolet-camaro-convertible-launch-detroit-june-2015_100515655_h-e1435189720440.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p42YSK-4cT","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16175","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/17"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16175"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16175\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16177,"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16175\/revisions\/16177"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16176"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16175"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16175"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16175"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
