It’s the way the industry is moving. I’d miss the V8 rumble, but the electric performance has the potential to blow the doors off the current cars. Definitely better to have an all electric Camaro than no Camaro, and if they get the look right it could be a huge win.

Electric camaro.... BOO!!!! BOO!!! .....Then again, that means more gas for me and my car..... YAY!!! Electric camaro YAY!!!

I’m no Luddite. This is the future. The V8 rumble will be missed, but on the other hand.... No power loss at high altitudes.

They can't keep up with the power grid as it is. Gonna have blackouts all around the USA when they mandate this nightmare. If you want an electric vehicle buy one but don't regulate it into existence. Let the free market decide, not some climate alarmist with his head up his carbon footprint.

I completely agree! I, too, will miss the sound and feel of a V8, but the possibility of an all-electric Camaro is exciting.

You can head over to the Camaro News web site and see the article for yourself.

I don't need to read anything. The pictures have been out out there for over 6 years. And btw, they weren't for the 7th gen.

Only thing I don't get is why they want to call it a Camaro. Millions of great new names or combinations to choose from. After the new "Mustang" electric SUV, though, nothing would surprise me... talk about watering down a perfectly good brand.

There's a reason the site can't be linked. The Camaro6 moderators censor "c a m a r o n e w s . c o m" because it's a fake news site.

As others stated, here are the source images from way back in 2013.

Those pushing for electric vehicles for climate reasons are obviously one level thinkers. It's the old saying, "every problem has a solution, and every solution has a problem".

While there are many means by which to generate electricity, coal still remains at the top. The other major, reliable way to create massive amounts of power is nuclear, but the greenies want to kill that as well.

But deeper, let us talk about the mining of the rare metals that are required to create these batteries. So, even IF we solved the coal problem, we just take all those earth strippers and move them to mine the metals.

And finally, we all know that batteries do not last forever. At some point, these batteries will need to be replaced. So, exactly what happens to the old batteries? Where do we bury those? And how will that affect the planet?

When it comes to mandating electric vehicles, it kind of sounds like a story about frying pans and fires.
