2015 Camaro

The fifth generation signs off

The final year of the Zeta-platform car, with the LS7-powered Z/28 still on offer.

The fifth generation's final model year offered a Commemorative Special Edition on 2LT/2SS coupes and convertibles, including RS content, unique 20-inch wheels, wraparound stripe, body-color splitter, ZL1 spoiler, fender emblems, and Adrenaline Red interior.

Chevrolet said cumulative fifth-generation sales had exceeded 400,000 since April 2009; this is not 2015 model-year production.

The powertrain and identification notes below preserve configuration and model-year boundaries rather than treating every 2015 Camaro alike. Ratings use the measurement convention of their period, and visual cues are only a starting point: the VIN, factory labels, drivetrain identifiers, and surviving documentation should agree.

Why it matters

Chevrolet said cumulative fifth-generation sales had exceeded 400,000 since April 2009; this is not 2015 model-year production.

Engines

  • Chevrolet lists a 323-hp/278-lb-ft V6; 426-hp/420-lb-ft manual SS; 400-hp/410-lb-ft automatic SS; 580-hp/556-lb-ft ZL1; and 505-hp/481-lb-ft 7.0-liter Z/28.

Identification

  • The 2014–15 front/rear treatment separates these cars from 2010–13. Commemorative-package equipment must agree with documentation; Z/28 has its own splitter, flares, rockers, diffuser, hood extractor, and black 19-inch wheels. VIN position 10 is F.
