Yeah, there's just something about the growl of the V8 that can't be replaced, as much as they try with the stereo system (like the Ford V6 and other European vehicles). I figure a hybrid system will at least allow the Camaro to get off the line quick enough to compete with the hybrids. Although, I imagine that GM may have already tinkered and found that it wasn't possible to create a seamless hybrid that was competitive enough with electric off the line. Ultimately, the consumer wants what the consumer wants and if a hybrid V8 can't keep up with a regular EV, then I am ok with GM jumping on the EV train.
