General Motors has shared the first image of the 2022 Chevy Camaro finished in the vibrant new Vivid Orange Metallic exterior paint color.
The new Vivid Orange Metallic paint color (RPO code GCF) is set to replace the current orange hue on the Camaro’s color pallette, Crush. The Crush orange color is a gloss paint, whereas Vivid Orange has a shinier metallic finish and also appears slightly darker. Chevy has not said how much Vivid Orange Metallic will cost to order, but the Orange hue that it replaces carried a $395 price premium.
Vivid Orange Metallic is one of two new exterior colors offered on the 2022 Chevy Camaro – the other being Rapid Blue, which replaces the eyepopping yellow-ish green Shock color. Chevy provided us with a sneak preview of the Chevy Camaro in Rapid Blue at the NASCAR season-opener in Daytona back in February, where a Rapid Blue Camaro served as the official pace car.
GM has planned numerous changes and updates for the 2022 Chevy Camaro. The sports coupe will lose one wheel option, will do away with the Kalahari beige interior color and the 1LE performance track pack will no longer be available on LT trim level models. A new Design Package 3 option will give customers a new personalization option, however, bundling together various exterior accessories including satin black hood stripes, a black fuel filler cap and Camaro-branded wheel center caps. Chevy will also offer a new copper-free performance brake pad for the eco-friendly states of Washington and California.
The start of production for the 2022 Chevy Camaro was previously pushed back from June 14th to September 20th. The delay is likely related to the recent production line stoppage at the GM Lansing Grand River Assembly plant in Michigan where the Camaro is produced, which was caused by a shortage of semiconductor chips.

New Orange looks pretty cool in the photos, nice new color option
You can tell when a company has run out of ideas for a model,Instead of paint colors how about a new body style
1980 Z28 had burnt orange colour.
Now instruct your dealers to order the Camaro exactly like this in different colors when y’all decide to build this car next year haha.
Also don’t assume everyone wants the black interior either.
When dealers order for stock. They are playing percentages. If you want a lower percentage option, it’s best to special order it. Most dealers find their niche in the marketplace and stick with it. It’s a numbers game for dealers. They aren’t collectors and they rarely gamble on small percentage vehicles. Especially, in this market.
@dblezy – When we receive the allocated order, Chevrolet also provides a list of constraints, so it’s not as easy as saying, “yes, I’ll take one just like that”. May times we are forced to take what’s available that week or we lose the order.
Same bad CGI pictures. GM’s marketing & ad is terrible.
Looks sexy as f.. and some want to kill this beast, what are you, crazy?
I’ll go with just build cars that are ordered by real people, not just what produces numbers. They can force build cars that aren’t ordered to sell later on.
Awesome ride!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I worked at Stealerships way too long .
First off I didn’t know they charged for certain colors,Other then Vans .And this Orange (?)
Should have been Hugger Orange!!!
Again I say lost Company!
Crush is hugger orange, someone scooped up the patent on “hugger orange” and CHEVROLET, or anyone else, can not use the name hugger orange. The paint is the same only the name has changed.
I think all Camaro enthusiasts would agree, they should make a mid engine Camaro. And bring back the 1LE package. I have a 2016 RS and with the V6 pushing over 430bhp. Its a winner. Yes been modified. Lol
I support you ideal there are rendered pictures of a mid engine Camaro
The it’s not a Camaro, at best it’s a fiero or corvair…lol
That Kalahari that they are discontinuing would go great with this color.
Yes it would but probably couldn’t get it. You couldn’t get Kalahari with crush. They should let people order interior colors with any exterior color they offer.
I love my orange interior on my 2018 Hot Wheels CAMARO.
Why discontinue if you do at least make the Camaro a heritage package I grew up seeing this car and so have others so just grow some balls and put a tuned 7.0 from the c7 Corvette stingray
It would be amazing to put a 7.0 from a C7 Stingray, especially if you can actually find one.
No C7 ever came with a 7.0l stock.
That was kind of my point.
Pour la Camaro 2022, un rappel du 55 anniversaire identifiez avec le nom CAMARO, CHAQUE CÔTÉ SUR L’AILE DU CÔTÉ DROITE ET CÔTÉ GAUCHE. Un rappel pour une voiture de performance de GM CHEVROLET. Le 55 , identifiez en numéro 55.
PLEASE, don’t stop making the Camaro’ that’s my dream Car and I am waiting for one. Camaro is a beautiful vehicle and I hope it will be around for awhile Hope the chip situation ends soon, because I will be glad to put my car on the Road
Its nice they are working on 22 models,I ordered a ZL1 months ago have not got it yet.Maybe they need to focus on cars that have not shipped first.
2022 won’t start until September now according to a earlier report. Orders are closed i believe on 2021 so it will get built just going to take time with the computer chips slowly coming back into stock.
GM canceled my 2021 1SS 1le order last week. They have buyers but can’t produce cars.
FROM CANADA SHOULD OF LEFT IT HERE . WE BUILT THE BEST ONES
Yep, that was where my 2013 ZL1 came from and I still love it to this day. Not one issue.
Yeah, I agree, but that ain’t gonna’ happen.
Nothing like hugger orange 99
Chevrolet Camaro is done….Nothing new about GM
I have to disagree, crush is the same paint formula. Someone beat CHEVROLET to the punch and bought the patent on the name “hugger orange” so nobody can use the name hugger orange. You can still use the paint formula of hugger orange but you cannot call it hugger orange. I would imagine that whoever owns the patent probably wants a small fortune it and CHEVROLET chose to use a different name rather than purchase the patent. Also 1969 was the original hugger orange.
Don’t think I’m the only one but i think they should do another retro restyle with a 70 or 71 body style
In my opinion if CHEVROLET would reproduce the 1969 CAMARO they would not be able to built enough of them.
Please change the dash
and the horrible horrible tailights!!
I thought the Camaro was discontinued after this model year.
Gorgeous.
Such a great car!
Strap the orange.. bring on the mid-engine Camaro..Please..pretty please
Really 7liter from c7 lmk when you find one
