At first, visibility is unusually limited, but you quickly get used to it. Narrow windows are fully complemented by visibility mirrors installed exactly where needed. It’s also worth paying attention to the mirrors - for the American versions of cars and European-assembled cars they are different (in the European version they fold and are spherical, but in the American car they do not fold, and the driver’s mirror is “straight” (with a magnification of 1.2x - American standard). When If necessary, you can order an upgrade and for a small amount of money change the mirror itself to a spherical one that is familiar to a Russian person, not a lot of money.

Although, most of the tuning accessories are aimed at changing color characteristics, tuning the interior, which is not distinguished by the richness of its decoration, wheels and engine.
Is the salon comfortable?
Everyone calls the Camaro's interior practical, albeit rather poor. In the cabin, everything is to the point, nothing superfluous, the layout of the dashboard is rational. Many, especially tall owners, note that the roof is too low and certain difficulties with getting in and out of the car. The seats are made for a person of almost any height, although, ideally, they are adapted for a driver with a height of 180 cm. The road from the cabin is almost inaudible, relatively quiet even at speeds of up to 180 km/h. Sometimes they complain about the low roof and the not particularly comfortable seating position of the car, but this is not very critical, you get used to it. At first, the driver should pay attention to the process of opening the doors, since they are long, this can create certain difficulties in tight parking. The instrument panel does not cause any complaints, despite its apparent simplicity.

The fifth generation Chevrolet Camaro is one of the most prominent representatives such a class of car as a pony car. Production of this model began in 2009 and lasted until 2015. Long before the premiere, the pony car from General Motors attracted the attention of tens of thousands of car enthusiasts. Which is not surprising, because American company not just developed a new product. She decided to resume production of the legendary Chevrolet Camaro, which was completed in 2002.
Appearance
The appearance of the new product of the late 2000s became brighter and more interesting than that of models of previous generations. The image of a sports pony car harmoniously combines the features of its legendary predecessor of the 70s and modern design solutions. The car turned out to be muscular, predatory, dynamic and aggressive. The wide, long hood attracts attention. head optics expressive shapes, chopped shapes rear wings, led lights, large “barrels” of the exhaust system and 20-inch wheels.
It is also worth noting that the fifth generation Chevrolet Camaro is distinguished by its immodest dimensions. Its length reaches 4,836 mm and its height is 1,377 mm. The width is 1,918 mm. Thanks to the impressive difference between length and height, the car's appearance seems even more aspirational and dynamic.
Interior
According to many people, the Chevrolet Camaro, whose price cannot be called low, has a very ascetic interior. However, other car owners consider the lack of frills to be a huge plus. In addition, the interior design is unlike any other. However, like the whole car.
But they all agree on the materials used in the finishing. The plastic is hard and looks too cheap. But the seats are comfortable and conducive to long trips, dressed in expensive genuine leather.
The trunk of this model is quite large when compared with the similarly sized Porsche 911. And the rear seats can accommodate two people of average build. So this sports car can also be considered practical in its class.
What's under the hood?
There are several versions of the fifth generation Chevrolet Camaro, and they are all different power units. There are 9 engines in total, the power of which varies from 312 to 580 horsepower.
It is worth noting that even versions with the most weak motor impressive with its characteristics. 3.6-liter 312 hp injection engine The V6 allows you to accelerate to 100 km/h in just 6.2 seconds. The speed limit is 250 km/h (there is a limiter). The “appetite” of this engine is quite modest. 100 “city” kilometers consume 13.8 liters of gasoline. On the highway, consumption drops to 8.4 liters. This unit is offered with a 6-speed manual and automatic transmission.
The fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro with a 580-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine is different better dynamics. Acceleration to “hundreds” takes just over 5.5 seconds. But the maximum is also limited to 250 km/h. This engine consumes about 15 liters of gasoline per 100 “city” kilometers. On the highway it consumes about 9 liters.
Equipment
It’s also worth talking about what equipment the Chevrolet Camaro pony car is equipped with. The fifth generation came out with a very rich list basic equipment. Included as standard ABS systems, EBA, EBD, ESP, curtains, airbags and door beams, active head restraints, and the OnStars crash response system.
In addition to the above, the package included air conditioning, front electric windows, automatically adjustable and heated seats, a power steering wheel with leather upholstery, cruise control, on-board computer, sunroof, Bluetooth Hands-Free interface and remote starting the internal combustion engine. In addition, the list of basic equipment included electric heated mirrors, xenon optics, fog and halogen headlights and factory tinted windows.
As you can see, everything you needed was already in the basic configuration of the Chevrolet Camaro. The price increased if a person wanted to add additional options. For an additional fee, separate climate control, navigation, CD changer and bi-xenon headlights were offered.
Behavior on the road
This topic cannot be ignored when talking about the Chevrolet Camaro. The fifth generation was long-awaited, and many people, after the presentation of the new product, rushed to get it. Most owners are happy to share their impressions of handling and operation in general.
If you believe the reviews, then the versions with automatic transmission behave best on the road. The automatic transmission is very responsive and playful, just as it should be on a real sports car. The gearbox instantly responds to the driver’s desire to accelerate, which is good news. And in traffic jams, the automatic transmission just helps out. The power steering in the Chevrolet is excellent, moderately hard.
The only people who were dissatisfied were people who bought versions with 18-inch wheels. They don't suit this pony car, either technically or aesthetically. But most owners immediately solved this problem by installing 20-inch wheels.
Exploitation
It’s also worth mentioning a few words about it when talking about the Chevrolet Camaro. “Chevrolet Camaro”... price, reviews, technical characteristics - everything indicates that this sports car cannot be classified as a budget and economical one. Real consumption versions with 6.2-liter engines vary from 12 to 20 liters depending on the nature and driving mode. In winter, the engine consumes a little more fuel.
However, the sensations this car gives are worth the cost. Chevrolet has excellent suspension. There are no rolls, sways or shakes observed. But this does not mean that you can test this car off-road, although the suspension will obediently “swallow” bumps. By the way, their passage will not affect comfort in any way. The body has a high seating position, which surprises many, given the sporty nature of the car.
Price
Finally, a few words should be said about how much money a person who wants to purchase a Chevrolet Camaro (fifth generation) will have to pay. The price is rather high, but quite reasonable. A 2010 model with a 432-horsepower engine under the hood will cost about 1,650,000 rubles. The mileage will not exceed 100,000 kilometers. And the condition will also be excellent - as in technically, and in cosmetics.
But if you want to become the owner of more new version, then you will have to pay more. The 2014 model will cost approximately 2.7 million rubles. For this price, a person can get a car with a 323-horsepower unit under the hood and a range of up to 35,000 km. And besides, with maximum configuration. Which includes everything you need - from an immobilizer and electrically adjustable seats to 20-inch alloy wheels and a multifunction steering wheel.
So if you want to become the owner of a powerful sports car, which attracts glances, you can safely choose the Chevrolet Camaro V. You won’t have to regret your choice, and numerous positive reviews are the best confirmation.
The fifth generation is powerful, fast car with a unique exterior and interesting interior design. This model is revered by many fans beautiful cars. What's so special about it? It should be sorted out.

The width of the machine is 1918 mm, and the height is 1376 mm. These are coming. Experts designed its middle side pillars in such a way that they became not just an advantageous decoration of the car, but also a practical addition: due to them, the rigidity of the body increased. But the racks are almost invisible. This creates the effect of a folding roof. By the way, potential buyers have the opportunity to order an electric glass roof. But it will cost more than 50,000 rubles, so the choice is up to the person.
Interior
What does the fifth generation Chevrolet Camaro look like from the inside? Reviews from people who own this car are replete with admiring comments regarding the interior of this model.

The sports seats are comfortable and comfortable. In these, the driver will definitely not get tired, even if he spends several hours behind the wheel without rest. The seats also feature active headrests and developed lateral support. By the way, they can also be adjusted (6 different directions). The rear seats can be folded, the front ones are heated.

This will appeal to people who like to listen to full-on music on the road.
But the model accelerates to “hundreds” in 4.7 seconds (in the case of a 3.6-liter engine - in 6.2 seconds). Technical features: independent suspension, disc brakes and variable-force steering. Thanks to these nuances, specialists managed to achieve excellent handling. As a matter of fact, this is why people fell in love with this car.
