2024 Chevy Camaro To Drop Turbo 2.0L LTG Engine

The 2024 Chevy Camaro will be the final model year for the current sixth-gen sports car. To mark the occasion, the Bow Tie brand is offering up a new special variant dubbed the Collector’s Edition, as GM Authority covered previously. However, that isn’t the only change in store, as the 2024 Chevy Camaro will also no longer offer the turbocharged 2.0L I4 LTG gasoline engine.

With the announcement of the new 2024 Chevy Camaro Collector’s Edition, Chevrolet also listed off the sports car’s powertrain options, which include the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 LGX gasoline engine, the naturally aspirated 6.2L V8 LT1 gasoline engine, and the supercharged 6.2L V8 LT4 gasoline engine. Notably, the turbocharged 2.0 I4 LTG gasoline engine is absent from the list.

The Chevy Camaro was the last GM model to offer the turbocharged 2.0L I4 LTG gasoline engine. The boosted four-banger was previously offered for the 2022 Chevy Malibu, but was dropped from the lineup following an early build-out date. The engine option did not return for the Malibu’s 2023 model year.

Per a GM Authority exclusive, production of 2023 Chevy Camaro units equipped with the turbocharged 2.0L I4 LTG gasoline engine began winding down earlier this year. Now, with the 2024 Chevy Camaro set to hit production this August at the GM Lansing Grand River plant in Michigan, the turbo 2.0L I4 LTG gasoline engine will no longer be offered.

In terms of specs, Chevy Camaro units equipped with the turbo 2.0L I4 LTG were rated at 275 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. By comparison, the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 LGX is rated at 335 horsepower and 284 pound-feet of torque, the naturally aspirated 6.2L V8 LT1 is rated at 455 horsepower and 455 pound-feet of torque, and the supercharged 6.2L V8 LT4 gasoline engine is rated at 650 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque. The sixth-gen Chevy Camaro rides on the GM Alpha platform.

Looking ahead, the Chevy Camaro nameplate may be used in conjunction with a new EV sub-brand.

  4. Long live naturally aspirated engines they are durable long lasting, small turbo engines suck.

  5. The 4 cylinder turbo really gave a pure hint at how good the chassis is.

    1. that chassis they used on the 6th gen is amazing. It’s so balanced and predictable.

      You can take corners so fast and you feel very safe and secure doing it. It’s unbelievable how good the 6th gen Camaro is, no matter which engine option you get. The few people who bought 6th gen Camaros compared to Stangs and Mopars, we really found a hidden gem.

  6. I love my lawnmower engine 🤣
    I graduated college in 2019 and after working full time for a year I went out in search of buying my first sports car. Since high school my dream car was the 5th gen V6 Camaro, so naturally when I could afford a Camaro I wanted the 6th gen V6. However a 2.0T Camaro with the RS pack came and found me with a 20% discount, so I got the 2.0T instead of the V6 I wanted.

    I love the 2.0T, after driving it I would never trade it for the V6. If I could one day afford the SS, that’s what I want most. But I’m taking the turbo 4 over the V6. Now that the 2.0T is going away I’m really glad I got to experience this car. When the 7th gen comes out I’m really hoping they bring that 2.7T i4 from the Cadillac CT4. I’m either getting the V8 or the turbo 4, V6 feels out dated.

    1. Someone break the news to him about Gen 7.

      1. Okay I’ll do it, THERE’S NO GEN 7 CAMARO!!!!!!!!

        1. GMAuthority posted an article that GM is already working on the 7th gen. From my understanding the 7th gen Camaro is coming out in 2025-2026, and it’s going to be based off the A2XX platform used on the Cadillac CT4. It’s just rumours and speculation, but I think it’s true. Only time will tell.

          And if we think about things logically, of course GM is going to be very hush hush about it because they want as many people to buy 6th gen Camaros as possible, because if they think there’s no 7th gen, they will have a fear of missing out.

  8. This design is so tired. I can’t believe it took this long kill. Too bad they didn’t do that by completely redesigning it years ago. It looks like it did in 2010. That was cute in 2010, today it looks RIDICULOUS.

    1. Btw I hope you know, the 2010-2015 Camaro vs the 2016-2024 Camaro are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT CARS. They are built on completely different chassis. Yea their styles are similar but that’s what Camaro fans wanted. We wanted the old school look of the 5th gen but we wanted a better handling lighter sports car, and that’s exactly what we got.

      I don’t care what the haters think, to me the 6th gen Camaro is the greatest American sports car ever made, dollar vs dollar.

    2. Looks and style are subjective. But 6th gen Camaros are beating every car in its price range when it comes to setting lap times on the race track, that is an objective fact.
