The LT1 Coupe and Convertible are new for the 2020 model year. The LT1 trim is introduced as the long-awaited, entry-level V8 trim level. The model features the same 6.2L V8 LT1 engine as the Camaro SS, but with the appearance and chassis components of the LT Camaro models. It also features less equipment than the Camaro SS models. The lack of such a model in the Camaro lineup has been a huge criticism of the sixth-generation Camaro, and is believed to be a major contributor to the model’s depressed sales volume when compared to the competition.
Powertrain
The 2020 Camaro is offered with four gasoline engines, including one turbo-charged four-cylinder engine, one naturally-aspirated six-cylinder engine, one naturally-aspirated eight-cylinder engine and one supercharged eight-cylinder engine. The engines go unchanged from the 2019 model, except for the introduction of the new LT1 trim and its associated LT1 engine.
