The long-awaited 2010 Chevrolet Camaro marks a return of one of GM's most iconic models. Unlike the previous 4th generation Camaro which was an evolution model developed from the prior generations, the 5th generation Camaro is designed from a clean slate.

The retro styling is modeled on the original 1960's muscle car. But underneath, the Camaro is all-new - aside from the powertrain.

Powering the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro is a choice of engines, including a 300 horsepower 3.6 litre V6, and a 422 horsepower 6.2 litre V8. Coupled to the engine is a choice of manual or automatic 6-speed transmissions driving the rear wheels.

Weighing in at around 1700 kgs (3750 lbs) the 5th generation Camaro is not a lightweight sports car. Although the 52/48 front/rear weight distribution should help improve the handling. As will fully independent suspension. The 2010 Chevrolet Camaro also features a StabiliTrak stability control system to keep the back end in line. For top spec models the 210 Camaro is equipped with Brembo performance brakes.

Unfortunately the interior of the fifth generation Chevrolet Camaro is not as nice as the stunning exterior. Vast expanses of black plastic are an eyesore, and while the distinctive gauge cluster, blue LED lighting and center console mounted ancillary gauges are styled to be reminiscent of the original 1960s Camaro, they somehow don't quite work in a 21st century car.

However, despite the disappointing interior, the 2010 Camaro should prove to be a worthy competitor to the Ford Mustang and Dodge Challenger. Even if it was a little late to the party.
