2022 Camaro

A narrower 1LE range

New colors, fewer 1LE configurations, and documented feature constraints shape a late-run model year.

Rapid Blue and Vivid Orange Metallic replace Crush and Shock; four-/six-cylinder LT-series 1LE availability ends, leaving SS 1LE and ZL1 1LE; Chevrolet also lists an available copper-free high-performance brake system.

Chevrolet warns that Rear Park Assist and heated/ventilated seats might not function on certain cars without later dealer retrofit, direct first-party evidence of feature constraints.

Why it matters

Chevrolet warns that Rear Park Assist and heated/ventilated seats might not function on certain cars without later dealer retrofit, direct first-party evidence of feature constraints.

Engines

  • Chevrolet lists a 275-hp/295-lb-ft turbo four, 335-hp/284-lb-ft V6, 455-hp/455-lb-ft LT1 V8, and 650-hp/650-lb-ft supercharged LT4. The brochure quotes 3.5 seconds 0–60 for automatic ZL1 coupe/ZL1 1LE and 198 mph for automatic ZL1 coupe.

Identification

  • Rapid Blue and Vivid Orange are useful 2022–23 cues but are not unique proof; VIN position 10 is N for 2022. SS/ZL1 1LE retain their established satin-black/aero treatments.

Open questions

Still unresolved:
  • The brochure establishes that no 55th Anniversary Edition was offered, but it does not show that Chevrolet “explicitly cancelled” one or why. Keep any cancellation/causation story labeled secondary or single-source.
