The switch to the newer Alpha platform, allied to a weight-conscious engineering programme, results in a coupé that is at least 90kg lighter than before, depending on the configuration.

Chevrolet proffered time behind the wheel of the V6-equipped 2015 model, which felt adequate around the walled Motown course, but immediately upon touching the throttle of the 2016-spec prototype, it was long forgotten.

Based on this very early drive, Chevy has set its sights on something higher than the latest Ford Mustang. While this new Camaro is now as light as the Mustang, the more powerful V6 and V8 engines of the Chevy will dictate the winner, at least on the drag strip.

Although the interior is a little narrower and the new platform renders the rear seats unusable for human transport, the overall package could be the pinnacle of American pony cars.

Basically, they love it even more than the Mustang thus far. That's really saying something.
