Hopefully it's something less "radical" in Camaros than going "track-mode"...
It's more than we have now, isn't it? Can't see how much worse the outcry could get.

And it makes perfect sense to me....why wouldn't you want better fuel economy when you're just tooling around, or cruising down a highway. Principle? Silly argument, imo....sound? 100% fair - but it appears as though this has been thought of on the Corvette, too.

If you're not just rolling to the grocery store - chances are you'd be in sport mode, to have some fun...at which point AFM is gone, or greatly reduced, whatever the case may be...

"The future is now", as they say....drivers who just want to get away from fuel-saving tech either need a time machine, or a lot of letters to elected individuals.
