The sixth-generation Camaro is due out for the 2016 model year and eager Chevrolet fans have already rendered the nameplates next iteration. This latest design, which was originally posted on the CamaroG6 Facebook page, takes on a more realistic approach, looking less like a design study and more like a production car than the renderings we previously featured.
The front end design borrows from the Bumblebee Camaro that was designed for the upcoming Transformers 4 movie, with a thin headlight setup, underlined by a set of LED lights that meshes into the skinny grille.
On the side, the rear quarter panel features the Camaro’s signature triple vent setup just before the rear-wheel arches. The window line is similar to the current fifth generation Camaro, while the lower part and rocker panel below the door is dramatically sculpted. The designer, who is unnamed as of yet, also included the rims and brakes from the 2014 Camaro Z/28.
Would you be happy if the sixth generation Camaro took a similar route to the design seen here, or is it all wrong? Let us know in the comments.

The front looks a bit like the Buick Riviera concept and the Opel Monza concept.
Amazing– the bow tie is black and red! With caddy changing its shield, maybe chevy might dump the huge gold and chrome bow tie (granted the current camaro does have a smallish bow tie)?
Maybe GM has noticed how many camaro owners paint out the gold on their bow ties?
I saw G6 and immdeiatly wanted to read this even more, but then I found out it stood for “generation 6” (which is exactly what it meant for the Grand Am G6)! I don’t think Chevrolet will go bazzare with the 6th gen. Camaro. They will change it, but they will also keep styling elements from earlier Camaro’s. I hope they bring a 2.0t along with an LT1 to the picture!
if the new camaro looks like that absolutely going to purchase one.
Happy hell yes! More like fuck yes!
Ohhh no please GM don’t mess up the Camaro, this is awful!!!!!!!!
We’ll don’t get too excited as this not even close like the last one posted on this site.
The next gen will be as great as the first gen was to the second an second to the third.
It is time for many. To understand this car is no longer a so called pony car as it is now a true global get GT coupe reaching out to a much larger market.
This design is not really all that much different than the present car.
GM is going to advance this car much like they did the C7.
The way it will change but it will still not be mistaken for anything but a Camaro.
When it arrives half will love it half will hate it and a few months after intro 95% will love it.
What is more important is the new car will draw in more than 50 year old and older guys.
I would recommend that no one get too fixed on it looking like a rehash of the present model and let them do what they need to do.
This is the best rendering I’ve seen thus far and believe this iteration along with some world class tweaks to the interior will serve the ponycar wars well into the future.
Sorry but the future is more than Mustang vs. Camaro as the cars go global.
It is now the GT wars.
The real econo based pony wars have gone to the small econo based fwd turbo cars. Time markets and models have moved on.
GM needs to keep the distinctive shark like front end with its shark mouth grill.
Hopefully it has lost some weight without losing high speed road control.
I prefer C5 to C6
I like this better than the last rendering to show up here. I also think Scott has it pretty much right as well.
I’ll keep my SS thanks, looks like the mustang boys designed this one
just don’t like the sleepy eye look, any camaro look there, no
This is NOT a GM concept. This is literally a member on Camaro5.com who said “Here let me show you what my version of the 6th gen would look like.”
thank you for that valuable titbit, i can relax now .
That does look somewhat more realistic. I love the headlights melding into the narrow grill best. Cool and trim, not chunky, clunky and overdone. I hope that feature makes it to the real car.
bronc624, I’m trying to like it, i don’t see a camaro look to it, too much new age, do you see a camaro there , or new age camaro or what ???
I sure hope you are right Scott. The current car has very few owners under 40, and none of the guys I work with who are around age 30 like it at all and say it’s for old guys. The new car must advance and become a global car that is not stuck in the past, but somehow still be a Camaro. Very, very tough order to fill.
Robert, please see my reply to Scott. 🙂
We don’t want a smaller Camaro, we like it big and heavy like the current 5 th gen.
Where in the hell do you live? I am a mechanic and I work with about 400 to 500 guys ages from early 20’s to late 60’s and I must say every guy I run into just loves the Camaro old and young!
The only real complaint is most of them can’t afford one
You want to kill the car just keep it big and heavy.
Now when I say smaller we are only speaking cts coupe small.
The new car will be better in all ways with less mass.
Some of you will be disappoint no matter what they do. But no matter as the. next gen is in good hands.
HEAVY CHEVY!!!
This one does not look as good as the F-15 fighter one…I like to see Camaro go from the old dull-boxy style…to a sleek-muscluer look.
This one looks too much like the current Camaro…..it doesn’t have that sleek-muscular futuristic look.
Not vary sleek…..doesn’t look vary arodynamic …just look like another boxy design.

Love the whole concept. Really enjoy the front, especially the headlight design. Also really like the side sculpting and rocker panel design. So much more appealing than the new Mustang design, which is a little plain vanilla for me. Had a ’72 RS Camaro which I really miss. This concept has some actual drama to it. Rare to find today. And how about a rendering of the rear end.
Also agree with Brian, cost, especially at the entry level will be a huge motivator.
lol at the people wanting the car to be lighter and have better handling as if they were going anywhere other than the next stoplight….half of em talking own kia sephia’s…
Absolutely perfecttttttttttt. Now to fit it with the new LT1 and Z28 with the LT4 and I will buy one of them.
I like the white picture at the end for the new Camaro,,just my opinion
Looks like a hyundai in the front. Dont do it people.
Illuminate the side rear quarter gills. Front end looks like a hyundai. No dont do it.
It will look like a Camaro when it gets here
Looks too cool which means GM will never build it. 8^)
Cuz GM never builds anything kool! F/M!
This looks like a union between a Camaro and a Trans-Am. Nice eyes though.
Just make sure they fix the interior …. the current Camearo could have been so much better…..the C7 is a big improvement. Hope they learned..
Oh no, now it looks like a cheap Porsche, then better I purchase an original Porsche. GM should learn that todays people that have $50K+ to spend on an auto, prefer the retro look. Reborn the 67 & 68 Camaros and you will sell a lot of them.
New Camaro unofficial concept doesn’t look like a Camaro any longer, will be a fiasco. For a new look better buy another car. The design changed that much that sales will drop like it did with the 4th Generation. Looks like a cheap Genesis. This change will kill the line again.
Think on this, younger people don’t have $60K+ to invest on a car, they invest on a house. People that remember the 60’s Camaro’s passed that information to their children’s, which at the same time grows wanting to have one. These kind of people are on the age of 1967+50 = year 2017, right now, their children’s are on the 30’s by year 2017 and they won’t buy another car like this for the rest of their life, so the Camaro future is at risk, if all these people buy another car, a Mustang, Japanese, European and now for a big surprise Korean.
I was going to purchase a 2015 model, hoping some improvements, because current 2014 Camaro is the same as 2013 but the rear style, but now I won’t buy, knowing that there is coming a new model. If the new model is this ugly and cheap looking, then I will purchase another sport car, may be a Mustang with the most power and luxury to offer, which still remains with a retro look.
My list of the improvements the Camaro must have to improve, these are the things that if the Camaro improve I will go directly to buy one anywhere they have one:
1. Radio, should be 8″ screen, have mini HDMI, good tactile feedback, DVD but better a Blu Ray slot, full support for iPhone 5 & Android and newest, Accessible USB, and Aux. (3mm plug), should be internet capable with apps. Should have rear and front view cameras.
2. Should be a little smaller, but not too much, passengers space should be similar to a Toyota Avalon (5 persons), good trunk space, the trunk door should allow easy access to its interior. 60/40 Split rear seat.
3. The spoiler should be a real spoiler, raised, like a plane wing, not a cheap plastic strip or squash down one. The spoiler is a very important car feature.
4. The engine for the ZL1 should be at least a LS7 with 600+ Horsepower, 0-60 in less than 3.5 secs. a real sturdy one. All aluminum 6.2L engine is a bad design. The Heads Bolts strip the threads under heavy accelerations loosing out the head, a lost for the owner.
5. The Z28 is a fiasco, a stripped down, no luxury items, forget it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just for a few racers. Road and Engine sound gets into the cabin, that’s not acceptable for any car. With it GM/Chevrolet will go to bankruptcy.
6. The car sound should roar when at idle and accelerating but once it exceeds the 40mph should be completely silent so you can enjoy music and talk to your passengers. Better, design something to mute the muffler sound or make it louder at will.
7. Music system should have 500+ watts, very good sound. A car with a mediocre sound is very disappointing and discourage buying.
8. Current version of the Camaro is too low riding, easy to scratch with any small road bumps. It is now common seen the lower front end of the cars all scratched, too bad. Should have front & rear park assist sensors to protect spoilers. Should have a pressurize height adjustment so when you need to get in old style Cities or a business or house driveway you can rise the height of the Car and not scratching its underthings.
9. Also very important should have dead zone sensors with feedback on the side mirrors and inside console, so you can drive more relax and safely.
10. Current options should continue; carbon fiber; should be available on good leather, not synthetic, the color HUD. Mag wheels should be triple chrome treated, the black ones are pretty ugly. Polished Aluminum requires a lot of maintenance or clear painting. We want something that out shines with very good durability and easy cleaning (Chrome).
11. Should have stainless steel exhaust system with headers. Turbo is a bad idea, keep the Supercharger.
