New 2014 Chevy Camaro - Z28 Preview from Riverton Chevy

THE ALL NEW 2014 RESTYLED CAMARO HAS ARRIVED!


We are excited to announce the Chevyrolet's return of the Iconic Z/28 Camaro Model to Riverton Chevrolet.  While we're not sure when this beauty will show up on our new car Chevy showroom here in beautiful Sandy, UT we want to give you a little sneak peak of what you can look forward to.

The new 2014 model Camaro takes things to the next level in the key areas that have always made it unique – design and performance. Functionality and technology have also been enhanced to help this icon remain a sales leader in its segment. 

The 2014 Camaro represents the most significant design changes since the introduction of the fifth-generation Camaro as a concept car in 2006.

Chevrolet has announced that it’s bringing back the Z/28, a historic nameplate that harkens back to its first generation roots with a road-course focus and equipment engineered for competitive driving.

The restyled 2014 Camaro takes things to the next level in the key areas that have always made it a leader in its segment - design and performance. It arrives in dealerships later this summer.

While we're still waiting to see a complete list of the new Camaro specifications we do have this to show you directly from Chevrolet.

Compared to the previous model, the front fascia features a narrower upper opening and wider lower opening for improved cooling efficiency as well as reduced aerodynamic lift. The narrower upper grille also updates the appearance of the iconic “Halo Ring” high-intensity discharge headlamps on the Camaro RS package, which are now slightly hooded at the top and bottom.  The Camaro SS models now feature a functional hood vent which diverts some of the airflow entering the engine bay up and over the vehicle reducing lift.

The change in proportion is mirrored at the rear of the 2014 Camaro, which features a taller rear diffuser and new, narrower LED taillamps. The taillamps feature a contemporary, streamlined take on the Camaro’s signature dual-element taillights.

The restyled 2014 Camaro LS, LT, SS and ZL1 models are scheduled to start production in the third quarter and arrive to Riverton Chevrolet - Salt Lake City Chevy Dealer by late summer.  The all-new 2014 Camaro Z/28 will join the other models in the spring of 2014. 

The 2014 Camaro Z/28 is designed to be the most track-capable Camaro production model produced by Chevrolet.  The Z/28 will be powered by the naturally aspirated LS7 small-block V8 engine and Tremec TR6060 six speed manual transmission.  In initial testing, the Z/28 is three seconds faster than the ZL1.  The increase speed comes not only from the engine but also from:

• Increased grip: The Z/28 is capable of 1.05 g in cornering acceleration, due to comprehensive chassis revisions

• Increased stopping power: the Z/28 features Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes capable of 1.5 g in deceleration

• Reduced curb weight: The naturally aspirated Z/28 weighs 300 pounds less than the supercharged Camaro ZL1, with changes ranging from lightweight wheels to thinner rear-window glass

The first Camaro Z/28 was introduced in 1967 to compete in the Sports Car Club of America racing; it featured a smaller, lighter, engine, heavy-duty suspension, and was not available with an automatic transmission or air conditioning. 

The goal of this fifth generation Camaro Z/28 is to return to its road-racing roots.  Like the first generation Camaro Z/28, the 2014 Camaro Z28 will not be offered with an automatic transmission, and air conditioning will be an option. 

The Camaro Z/28 will be equipped with Recaro™ Performance Seats.  Recaro™ Performance seats will also be an available option at the start of the 2014 production run for the Camaro SS and ZL1 coupe models.

The restyled 2014 Camaro joins the all-new 2014 Corvette Stingray and the Chevrolet SS to form one of the most impressive performance car lineups offered by any manufacturer, and will allow your customers to continue to find new roads. 

The Camaro Z/28 features the very best, race-proven technology on the market, including carbon brakes, spool-valve dampers, and the hand-built LS7 V8 engine.   As such, the Z/28 will be positioned above the ZL1.  Specific information on the Camaro Z/28 pricing will be available at Riverton Chevrolet later this year.  Give us a call at (801) 576-4675 for more information on pricing your new 2014 Camaro in Utah.
