There will not be a follow-up model to the Chevrolet SS Performance Sedan. The first-generation model was introduced for the 2014 model year and discontinued for the 2017 model year.
Chevrolet stopped taking orders for the SS Sedan at the end of February 2017, since the GM-Holden Elizabeth plant in South Australia where the SS Sedan is assembled ceased operations in October 2017, thereby marking the discontinuation of the SS Sedan along with the Holden Commodore, Ute, and Caprice — all of which are based on GM’s Zeta platform.
General Motors could theoretically introduce a follow-up to the sport sedan on the Alpha platform, but the automaker has not indicated that it considering such a model.
