It comes with the current map version in the original price, and includes unlimited use of basic navigation with no subscription or fees. You'll have to pay for updated maps (they are on an SD card) if you want them in the future.
There is also additional information with Connected Navigation, which gives you things like real-time traffic and fuel prices. According to the info on the build configurator it is available on "properly equipped vehicles" - it doesn't explicitly state anywhere that I can find if the Camaro is properly equipped, but I'm assuming it is. Connected Navigation DOES require a subscription through OnStar - looks like it's part of the "Connected Vehicle" plan for 24.99/month, or the "Premium Services" plan for 49.99/month. I'm not sure if there is a trial period with new purchase or not but I should be able to say for sure next week when mine comes in.
For what it's worth - I've had factory nav in my previous 3 cars, all have had some sort of similar optional extras for a price and all have offered a trial period of some sort. None of the connected features have been particularly useful to me, certainly not enough to pay for.
