3. Alpha-Platform Awesomeness
We already know how spectacular GM’s Alpha platform translates to driving dynamics, as seen in the Cadillac ATS and CTS. The platform was engineered from the beginning for sublime driving feel, light weight and can support a variety of engine specifications, including forced-induction. The current Camaro’s Zeta bones are simply too bulky, but we’ve seen what clever engineering can make out of it. Just look at the 1LE, ZL1 and Z/28. The platform has been specifically adjusted for the 2016 Camaro to fit the car’s proportions, and features a unique dash-to-axle to support the car’s iconic profile. With the 2016 Camaro riding on Alpha, expect superior driving dynamics, and most importantly, for the car to go on a much needed diet.
From the list of 10 things to expect....^^^^^^^^^^^
Sounds like they adjusted things to keep it looking the same as the 5thGen, but were still able to lose weight....Just sayin' it doesn't sound like the Camaro will appear"very small"....rather more the same size we are familiar with...
