One of the most charismatic and brutal cars to date. Among gray round stampings knocks out a bright spot. Gives the feeling that you are driving with flashing lights, everyone passes with smiles on his face. A car with amazing energy. and this energy is extremely positive. There are very few cars that can compare with it on the level of emotions. It attracts the eyes of many road users, even in cities such as St. Petersburg and Moscow where, it would seem, nothing has been surprising for a long time. Under the hood, 3.6 liters of animal power, which entail almost 400 ardent horses. Each trip is a stream of new sensations, you get so much pleasure from the sound alone that it is difficult to convey. Cannon accelerates and almost completely replaces blood in blood vessels with adrenaline. There is a sport mode that is generally not recommended for untrained drivers, since the car turns into an angry bull tearing the asphalt underneath. The paddle shifters for instant gear changes will make you feel like a Formula 1 pilot, this car gathers a queue for selfies, even when parked. Forces all passers-by to turn around in her trail, and bikers to nod approvingly and show you the likes. You will be invited to various events, photo shoots, children's parties, of course, not for free. So for the season, all the costs for this car are more than repulsed. Reliable as a tank, because everything is done with a colossal margin! The naturally aspirated engine (1,000,000 km without repair, as announced) is no longer made. Indeed, why do we need a client who will not come to the service. The machine holds up to 550 horses without intervention, as does the gearbox and the unit itself as a whole. Easy to maintain, nothing has broken for all the time, the same reviews from other owners. All consumables are always available, no need to wait. Original oil- 1400 rub., Orig. oil filter- 400 rub., cabin filter- 200 rubles. The oil was changed more often than necessary when on-board computer showed the remainder of the oil life of 50%. Hodovka is suitable for everyday driving, the car is soft, and easily swallows all the irregularities. In winter it was not used, because it is not the only car in the family. No smoking in the cabin. Cruise control, automatic dimming of the salon mirror. Tire pressure control (shown on the screen). Excellent acoustics. Ceiling, black pillars. Power seats. Voice control of the car, if you know English, you can have a sincere conversation with the car, which responds with the voice of a girl. Amazing noise isolation, even standing near the door, you will not hear what people are talking about in the car. And most importantly, the consumption in mixed mode is 11 , 5 liters !!! In all respects it is best car, which can be bought for this money, and it is also simply incredibly beautiful and that says it all!
When you see a Chevrolet Camaro, there is only one thought: "What does it look like!" Pictures from press releases and photo reports from exhibitions give some idea, but when you have this thing in front of your eyes, the feeling is on a different level. It’s hard to say what attracts more attention - the wedge-shaped nose, thick white stripes along the hood or the doors recessed into the body. Anyway, putting everything together, the designers made the car amazing! Even if aliens landed nearby, they would not look so defiant. They may have landed, I still could not have noticed.
AMPLUA - ROBOT
The first generation Camaro appeared in the late 1960s. As conceived by the creators, the model was supposed to compete with the "Ford Mustang", but did not achieve the popularity of a rival among buyers. And among directors. There are countless episodes of Mustang in American cinema. First of all, I remember the jumping up and down the hills of San Francisco in Bullitt and the epic 34-minute chase in the original Gone in 60 Seconds. Another muscle car revived in a modern guise, the Dodge Challenger boasts a major automotive role in Vanishing Point. As for the acting career of "Camaro", then only the robot from "Transformers" comes to mind. I don’t remember that this model of "Chevrolet" starred in some more adult movie (clip "Tatu" does not count). Although, if you think about it ...
The Camaro has always seemed like a thoroughbred American, but the platform for the current fifth generation was developed by the Australian division of General Motors, Holden. So, the distant ancestors of the modern "Chevy" rushed through the deserts in the vicinity of Melbourne in "Mad Max". One way or another, the time has come to evaluate the work of the engineers of the Green Continent in action.
WHERE QUIET, WHERE LOUD
When you get behind the wheel, the interior is a little disappointing at first. Of course, if he were in a different car, he could undoubtedly be called stylish, and you can't find fault with the quality of the finish, but with such an appearance you expect more.
When buying a car, they offer orange inserts in the interior for an additional fee - perhaps they will correct the situation.
But with a low roof, you can hardly do anything: if the height is even slightly higher than average, your head will rest against the ceiling.
But as soon as you hit the road, you stop paying attention to it. You spread the air currents with a huge bonnet lip and sharp fenders - and it captures the delightful feeling of being on a typical American. Big and powerful! I don’t know if the designers worked on these exterior elements on purpose, or if they did it by accident. You quickly realize that the dimensions of the car are actually impressive. From a habit it even seems that it barely fits in the strip.
It's surprisingly quiet inside. So much so that the real speed may differ from the subjectively perceived one and a half times. But if you open the hatch, then all the efforts of the designers on the topic of sound insulation will go to waste. I preferred another way to break the silence in the cabin: the Camaro has a nine-speaker audio system from Boston Acoustics and it sounds more than worthy.
When driving for a long time, there is only one inconvenience: the gas pedal is too shifted to the right, over time the leg gets tired. You can give her some rest by turning on the cruise control. And when you get bored, press the pedal to the floor. Then the 6.2-liter V8 engine, previously lazily spinning about 2000 rpm, will wake up and, after a moment's hesitation of the automatic transmission, will shoot the car forward. Its roar is beautiful, but damn it, it should be louder! You want to enjoy the speed and ease of speeding up endlessly. More precisely, until the tank is empty. This V8 has a clever system that disengages half of the cylinders at light load, but on every acceleration average consumption grows before our eyes. So, if you want to keep within 12 l / 100 km in country mode, forget about harsh pedaling.
RIDING ON THE THERMOMETER
In all fairness, there was some doubt as to whether the Camaro was capable of really fast on the racetrack. After all, it was clearly not created for track days. However, "Chevy" felt quite confidently at the "Smolensk Ring". The gearbox snapped gears quite briskly, the brakes pleased with efficiency and clear response, but the main surprise was the handling. And it's not about the traction itself - it's quite moderate. It was surprising how balanced the Australians made the heavy car in the corners.
Understeer at the entrance is substantially less than expected, allowing for an early acceleration at the exit. The stabilization system, however, works a little early, but if you switch it to sport mode, it allows you to gently throttle the car and even, if the driver has the courage, to sink the stern into a deep skid. As a result, the 405-horsepower Camaro showed a lap time of 1.51.6, leaving the 700-horsepower Ford Mustang with its nose - 1.55.3 ( ZR, 2011, No. 12 ). So the Chevrolet proved its superiority on the racetrack. His trouble lies elsewhere. It is worth driving three or four laps at the maximum pace, as the engine and gearbox overheat, the oil temperature in both units exceeds 150º. The brakes are still holding, but from the changed pedal effort it is clear that it is hard for them too. So after every five minutes (literally!) Of high-speed speed, the car has to be cooled for a long time. Sprinter, you will not say anything. This year, the brand introduced a modification of the Camaro ZL1, it seems to be more racing. How long will she last? However, let him get to Russia first.
GREAT BUT HONEST
There is one thing that I absolutely love about this car. Many prestigious cars are hostages of their brand, and it is sometimes difficult to tell which sensations are real and which are inspired by the brand's badge. Here, everything is different. Since the Camaro is not very popular on this side of the Atlantic, and the name “Chevrolet” is shared with all sorts of “Koreans”, from the point of view of the impression it is absolutely honest.
The absence of a loud nameplate also affects the price: from 2.6 million rubles. for the version with V8 and from 1.9 million - with a 3.6-liter V6. It seems a little for a car that makes people around you twist their necks. However, most of the time "Camaro" will seem unreasonable: bulky, voracious, impractical, with purely symbolic rear seats and without a spare wheel. In addition, the tendency to overheat will not fully compensate for these shortcomings on the track.
But if you're on an empty highway on a sunny day, it's hard to find a car that tempts you more.
Vadim KRYUCHKOV, Head of the Sports Department, ZR:
There are youth cars, but I would call "Camaro" ... youthful. A good toy for wealthy uncles who are still boys at heart. Typical American muscle car, loud music on Boston components, extraordinary appearance ... This is where Ray Ban glasses - of course, Aviator models - and a long-legged young lady on the right seat are asking for.
Alexander KRYUCHKOV, test pilot of ZR:
Generally speaking, in our world a hot hatch or some European sports car makes much more sense. The "Camaro" impresses with its irrationality. I would have had money for it, I would have bought something else, but if possible I would have traveled with pleasure.
Oleg PETRIKOV, master of sports, general manager autodrome:
Smolenskoe Koltso Contrary to expectations, the car behaves superbly on the race track. But not for long - more than five laps in a row we could not drive on it due to overheating of the transmission. The Camaro handles well, brakes excellently, but with the stabilization system not completely disabled, it is impossible to fully enjoy cornering: the electronics do not allow you to completely liberate. The conclusion is simple: american car it is intended for driving on highways, not for a track. Although on the track it is by no means helpless.
Despite its brutal appearance, the Chevrolet Camaro is an extremely convenient and comfortable car, which in terms of its equipment and thoughtfulness of every element of the cabin can compete with luxury German business sedans. For example, five high-quality leather interior trims are available at once: Jet Black, Medium Ash Gray, Kalahar and two two-tone options - Black and Ceramic White, Black and Adrenaline Red.
- Electrically adjustable driver's seat in eight directions and front passenger seat in six directions
- Dual-zone climate control
- Heated and ventilated front seats
- Active noise cancellation system
- Three-spoke wheel with height and reach adjustment, heated and leather upholstery + leather upholstery gear knob
And as for the level of driving comfort, here the creators of the Chevrolet Camaro have completely surpassed themselves, having achieved the maximum ergonomics of all controls. For example, dashboard can display up to twenty-two indicators, so you do not have to be distracted from the road, and the touch display supports full personalization.
The Chevrolet Camaro has been in production for fifty years, but the current model is absolutely new car designed with all the most advanced scientific and technical innovations in mind. Thanks to this, the Camaro was awarded the prestigious Motor Trend’s 2016 Car of the Year title.
- Head-up reconfigurable color display
- Bose® speaker system with nine speakers + Apple CarPlay support and Android Auto+ wireless phone charging
- Keyless entry to the salon and engine start by pressing a button + remote engine start
- Paddle shifters for manual gear shifting
- Memory package for adjusting the driver's seat, side mirrors, head-up display and interior lighting
The Chevrolet Camaro not only has all the luxury features found in other models in the same price range, but also a number of unique options. For example, the head-up display allows speed and other metrics to be displayed directly on the windshield directly into the driver's field of vision.
Ease of driving
Of course, the Chevrolet Camaro is a big, powerful and courageous car that just provokes its owner to press the gas pedal to the floor and enjoy the speed to the fullest, but it is also good for daily use in heavy city traffic. After all, everything here is arranged so as to make the life of the driver as easy as possible.
- Rear parking sensors and reversing camera + tire pressure sensors
- Electric power steering and electric parking brake
- Background LED lights dashboard, doors, cup holders in the center console, footwells and door sills, twenty-four color modes
- Cruise control
- Chevrolet MyLink Infotainment System with eight-inch color display, navigation and voice control+ Bluetooth® + antenna on rear window+ two USB ports and a 12 V socket
The Chevrolet Camaro has a modern eight-speed automatic transmission gear shifting with the possibility of manual shifting by paddle shifters. This will allow you not to be distracted by constant switching when driving on busy city roads, and on a country road will help you to fully enjoy the dynamics of the car.
The intercity bus driver will have a hard time if he is stopped and half of the passengers are not wearing their seatbelt.
@ Russian, No, the impression is that we are importing from Mars !!!
I was so attached behind the truck when it was raining heavily at night
in Suzukov's Marx it is written to lubricate.
Why should you mislead people with your headlines, or rather headless ones:
"Why can't you lubricate ...", but refuses "when the manufacturer writes" do not lubricate ", then you do not need to lubricate"
I heard from some girls that heels are more comfortable than flat soles)
Shchitovody))
In 1975, a dollar was worth 66 kopecks!
Moskvich cost 5000 r = 3300 $
Now $ 3300 = 264000 ₽ ... at the rate of 80 ₽ for 1 $
How did the SHIELDERS manage to count 1,380,105 rubles ???
This is five times more than it actually is! ... Ah-ha-hah ..))
It is simply impossible to come up with a more idiotic solution than x-dents on the sides
Given our natural resources, energy resources for the population should be FREE, and we have diesel fuel more expensive than gasoline!!! Therefore, motor ships are inaccessible for schoolchildren, students and pensioners.
the Chinese began to make the norms of the car?
@ seversky77, the SHIELDERS have forgotten about the fact that on living wage scoop in 40 r could be lived, but how to live on 11182 - now only the fired Medvedev knows, tk. he himself advised the doctors ...
I am for the train, the advantages are obvious especially in the city, (for example: quiet, torquey and reliable electric motor, no box exhaust system, there is no need to do maintenance every 10-15 tons km, a low center of gravity, that is, better handling, the battery is quite reliable, the warranty is 8 years, etc., etc.) people often focus on one-time problems using the car, for example, once a year to go on vacation by car or park on a snowdrift, and overpay for the rest of the time four-wheel drive and 20 cm clearance
I use these techniques, it helps. But the ride is excellent and safe. I can't call it better to make the headlights.
At modern technology there are no problems to establish whether the driver has a license, is deprived of rights, or they never had. During my 50 years of driving experience, there were cases when the driver's license remained at home due to forgetfulness, but this does not mean that at one moment I turned into a person who could not only drive a car, but also did not know which side he got into it. Yes, traffic rules provide for the presence of a driver's license when driving a car, but its absence due to (forgotten at home) is not so serious as to impose such huge fines. For example, doctors, teachers and many other professions, when they are at their workplace, do not keep in their pockets a certificate or other document confirming their qualifications and the right to engage in relevant activities. And they are not fined for this. This is my personal opinion and I do not impose it on anyone, I just expressed my point of view.
A sharp start is just the best for the hookup. Disc and flywheel immediately meet each other, virtually without slipping.
The release is possible, but the violet petals, if the psh is not jammed. And decide what you have - legs or petals.
The modern clutch does not need to be adjusted any more, they are all petal. Here are the ancients, with paws it was necessary.
Switching on the go without dropping the speed does not lead to any breakdowns.
This is practiced so as not to lose moment on the shaft for a more frisky acceleration.
Specialists, they are such, spitzists ...
@ Russian, yes. Quite competitive cars.
