With the remote possibility of Camaro coming to Australia in sight,
Chevrolet has debuted the Camaro Synergy Special Edition which will be
produced in limited numbers from February to May 2010.
The Synergy
Special Edition is easily identified by its dramatic Synergy Green colour
scheme.
“Synergy Green continues a long tradition of dramatic Camaro
colors,” says Camaro historian Scott Settlemire. “Some of the most
sought-after Camaros are first generation cars – those from 1967 to 1969 –
in Hugger Orange, Daytona Yellow, and Rallye Green.”
The
2010 Camaro Synergy Special Edition is based on a Camaro 1LT, with a 3.6L
direct injection V-6, paired with either a six-speed manual or automatic
transmission. The powertrain has become a benchmark for the segment by
offering a combination of performance and efficiency: The V-6 delivers 304
horsepower and 273 lb.-ft. of torque, and returns up to 29 mpg on the
highway.
The Synergy Green exterior color was first previewed at the
2009 Specialty Equipment Manufacturers (SEMA) show. In production form, the
Synergy Green is accented by Cyber Grey Rally Stripes running the length of
the Camaro hood and rear deck. Other exterior features include a standard
rear spoiler, and standard 19 inch, Sterling Silver painted wheels wrapped
with P245/50R19 tires.
The color scheme is mirrored on the interior,
with Synergy Green instrument panel and door inserts. Synergy Green
stitching also accents the Jet Black cloth seats, steering wheel, shift knob
and center console.
“Just
as those colors helped make the first generation Camaro an icon, modern
colors like Inferno Orange, Rallye Yellow Transformers Edition and Synergy
Green will define the 2010 Camaro,” Settlemire said.
The Special
Edition also includes the Camaro Convenience and Connectivity Package, with
Bluetooth phone connectivity, USB port for MP3 players, and remote vehicle
start for models equipped with an automatic transmission.
“The
Synergy Special Edition package is designed for customers who want a unique
performance car at an attainable price,” says Camaro marketing manager John
Fitzpatrick. “For under $27,000, Camaro Synergy Special Edition offers
standout styling, modern technologies like Bluetooth, and 304 horsepower
under the hood.”
Pricing starts at US$26,790.
