These Camaros have no place in the EV future of GM and doubt if they will see any new type of promotions or advertising....What would be the point? Low sales and low demand will only justify the switch to electric. Then you will perhaps see dedicated EV Camaro television ads.
GM does spend a fortune advertising Cadillac on TV. Those are either low sales models or haven't even been built or offered for sale yet...lol....Go figure.

Because Cadillac isn't better than the competition, and the only people who have an attachment to the Cadillac brand and name are dropping like flies due to old age.
I'm clearly biased, we all here are, but by almost every metric I've seen the Camaro is a better car than the Mustang and Challenger, the latter has its own niche because it has usable back seat, is comfier because it's riding on a Mercedes platform (more of a GT car), and has a more dragster, straight line focused halo around it which means people don't expect nor care that it can corner like the Camaro or Mustang.
Great cars, all of them, we're living in peak ICE (and also witnessing its death), but the Mustang wouldn't be as good as it is today (GT350/500) without the Camaro.
As someone mentioned before, GM invested a lot of resources for the C8, and it paid off... Only for Covid and chip shortage to F everything up, BUT the hype is still there, otherwise they wouldn't be selling for 6 figures 2nd hand, GT350 and GT500 had dealer markups since day 1, Dodge pivoted the Hellcat and their V8 branding towards absolutely everything, Camaro? On the chopping block, AGAIN.
