Mid Engine Camaro? What do you think about this concept?
This question I am about to ask will stir the pot a little bit(just 4 fun)..do you think GM will create or even think about a Mid Engine Camaro? Since the Trunk of the 6th are hard to get a few items in..I can actually see the engine in the rear of the camaro and the front having alot of space! If so this will be legendary for camaro's going forward which will have a leg up on Mustangs. Do you think it will be possible which will show us a new Z28 version we never thought of or chalk it up as a loss?

Lets get it

While it would be cool and really shake things up, never gonna happen. Camaro needs a shared architecture to survive so unless Cadillac is gonna have some mid engine sedans never gonna happen.

If anything ever goes mid Camaro, it will likely be a battery pack of some kind...
Corvette has just gone decades beyond Camaro. I would keep an eye on the new Cadillacs to see what may be in store for Camaro. All good....Camaro gave the 'Vette a run for it's money recently....but not anymore. |
With coupes and sedans going the way of the DoDo bird, we'll be lucky even to see a 7th Generation Camaro, let alone a radically redesigned one.

Just don't see it. The corvette went mid engine for differentiation but also because they had tapped as much performance as they can with front engine. I don't think the camaro is at that point and I see more hybrid tech coming for the camaro to be honest.

If they would be making a mid engine Camaro, the front hood would get a lot smaller since they would to move the whole cabin FWD to make some room for the engine. Then you'd be struck with the same issue.. no room in front.
Plus, Camaro is made to be a sport car for smaller budget. Making it mid engine would increase the price of the car dramatically and GM would lose a lot of potential buyers (like me who got a base model cause it is what I can afford). If they want to kill the Camaro sale and lose money, I bet they would do it. As said above if they want the Camaro to survive, it has to share the platform with something else and that won't be the corvette. You can keep dreaming haha. |
Never going to happen. It will go extinct before that ever happens. Domestic mfg has laid down for passenger car production (at least US built). The days are limited.
|
Technically, the next camaro could be slightly "mid" due to some hybrid rumors. But no, that's too much change going on.
|
I think the chances of the camaro going EV are much higher than mid engine.
|
No, with the huge investment and low price of the C8 Corvette we will be lucky to even see another Gen Camaro. Now I see why Chevy may be canceling the next Gen Camaro.

As for increasing the price dramatically, it was generally assumed that the same thing would happen to the Corvette, but look how that turned out. |
