Regardless of engine, the Camaro is the best-driving muscle car of its segment, edging out more expensive sports cars when it comes to behind-the-wheel thrills. Poor outward visibility and a tiny trunk limit its practicality as a daily driver. If you can live with these downsides, you'll be rewarded every time you drive it. If not, the Mustang and the Challenger deliver similar thrills with fewer flaws.Read full review

Pros

Impressively responsive and nimble handling around turns
Potent acceleration from V6 and V8 engines
Relatively smooth ride, especially with the adaptive suspension
Solid value thanks to a long list of standard equipment

Cons

Difficult to see out of
Tiny back seat is essentially useless
Limited trunk space with small opening
Some controls are awkward to use

What's new

No significant changes for 2023
Part of the sixth Camaro generation introduced for 2016

Overview

The one constant in the universe is change and the future of automotive is a clear example of that. As we march toward a seemingly inevitable all-electric future, gas-guzzling sports cars are likely to go extinct. The Dodge Challenger is already in its final year as an internal combustion muscle car and the Chevrolet Camaro looks poised to follow it into retirement for the 2024 model year. The Ford Mustang, on the other hand, will continue alone with a significant refreshening and restyling for 2024. For 2023, the Camaro only receives minor changes, mostly limited to paint, wheel and a few aesthetic revisions.

Cost to Drive^{Cost to drive estimates for the 2023 Chevrolet Camaro 1LS 2dr Coupe (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6M) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $3.86 per gallon for premium unleaded in Virginia.}

While we're excited to see what the first generation of electric muscle cars have in store for us, we're admittedly sad as the end of snarling V8 Camaros approaches. As is the case with its Mustang and Challenger rivals, the Camaro has represented potent performance on a budget. As much as we're fans of the Camaro, it's not perfect and we cover all of the good and bad in our Expert Rating below.

edmunds TESTED

Rated for you by America's best test team.

Performance

9/10

How does the Camaro drive? This Camaro is a strong performer that blends speed with precision and enjoyment in a way that previous Camaros never did. The V8 is stout and our choice if you want the full muscle-car experience, but even the V6 and four-cylinder are punchy. Most models will out-drag an equivalent Mustang by a slight margin, and the brakes are up to the task of getting it stopped in a hurry.

Handling feels more precise with the smaller and lighter engines, but the V8 with its stickier tires exhibits higher limits. The manual transmissions have great positive gates, and rev matching ensures downshifts that are as good as a pro racer's.

Comfort

7.5/10

How comfortable is the Camaro? The base suspension delivers a supple ride. The optional Magnetic Ride Control suspension (V8 only) is more capable over a variety of surfaces. The ride quality is very good considering the Camaro's mission. All engines are quiet cruisers, but only the V8 sounds good when driven hard.

The well-shaped front seatbacks offer good lateral support without being confining, but the bottom cushion can feel tight to some. We also like the effectively padded door and center armrests. Unsurprisingly, the back seat is cramped even for short drives. The climate control center vents are oddly placed in front of the shift lever where they excel at freezing or heating your hand while cruising.

Interior

6.5/10

How’s the interior? Visibility remains a big concern, and it makes the Camaro harder to operate and park in tight places than it should be. Surprisingly, the view forward and the view to the sides are even bigger problems. It's very hard to place the Camaro on tight roads (watch that rock wall!) or in tight spots (watch that shopping cart!). Shorter passengers can't see over the dashboard.

Interior controls are arranged in an unusual way that comes with a surmountable learning curve. The forward half of the interior feels large provided you don't opt for the sunroof. In back, people of average height won't find much space, especially if the driver is tall. In true performance coupe fashion, this back seat is for kids only.

Build & Price

Technology

7/10

How’s the tech? The Camaro is a little hit-or-miss in this category. There's a respectable level of tech features, and we like the infotainment system's quick reactions and modern aesthetic, but the screen is oddly angled on the dash. The base touchscreen is also on the small side, which is one reason to upgrade to the larger one that comes with optional navigation. You must upgrade to higher trims for rear parking sensors and blind-spot warning and a rear cross-traffic warning systems — things it sorely needs due to its terrible rear visibility.

Storage

5/10

How’s the storage? At 9.1 cubic feet, the Camaro coupe's trunk has not only the smallest volume in the segment, but it also has a tiny opening and a high liftover height. If you ever wondered why tourists who rent Camaro convertibles put their suitcases in the back seat, this is why.

Interior storage is minimal. The door pockets and under-armrest bin are tiny. At least the cupholders are of a fair size and mostly out of the way during shifting. And although the back seat may be useless for adults, it does allow for extra interior storage.

Continue reading Edmunds Expert Rating below

Fuel Economy

7/10

How’s the fuel economy? The EPA rates the V6 automatic at 22 mpg combined (18 city/29 highway), the V8 automatic at 20 mpg combined (16 city/26 highway), and the four-cylinder automatic at 25 mpg combined (22 city/30 highway). These figures are similar to those for other muscle cars.

Value

7.5/10

Is the Camaro a good value? The strong performance value really trumps all else here. The Camaro is the best driver's car of its type. There are some hard plastics that seem out of place in an otherwise pleasant interior. That said, the construction and assembly are strong with no creaks or squeaks.

From its mid-$20,000 base models to the top-level ZL1, the Camaro costs about the same as an equivalent Mustang. Features for the dollar are comparable too, be they the track packages or exterior styling upgrades, but performance is squarely in the Camaro's favor.

Wildcard

9/10

The Camaro delivers a surprisingly cohesive and involving driving experience that competes at a class above. The V8's sound is compelling and the tremendous thrust addictive. Handling with the V6 and four-cylinder models is honest and lithe, but the sound from either engine is hard to like. Exuberantly styled, this low-slung coupe grabs attention, which may or may not be to your liking.

Which Camaro does Edmunds recommend?

Most car aficionados are adamant that a V8 engine is mandatory to qualify as a muscle car — and we agree. Among the many choices, we recommend the 2SS trim that adds several comfort and convenience items, along with a few advanced safety features to help overcome some of the Camaro's visibility issues.

Bought a brand new 2023 1ss1le. 900 miles of easy driving the transmission started making a tapping sound anytime time the clutch was released. Brought the car to a dealer, come to find out three gears have teeth missing. Parts are on back order for months.

Chevrolet Camaro vs. Ford Mustang

The Ford Mustang has been the Camaro's archnemesis dating all the way back to their first generations in the 1960s. Among the trio of muscle cars, the Mustang is our favorite. The V8-powered Mustang GT delivers a strong wallop of performance to match the Camaro, and it benefits from noticeably better outward visibility and controls that are easier to use.

Compare Chevrolet Camaro & Ford Mustang features

Chevrolet Camaro vs. Dodge Challenger

The Dodge Challenger represents a big, brooding counterpoint to the smaller Camaro and Mustang. It has the power to satisfy even the most demanding of performance drivers, but handling isn't nearly as accomplished. That makes the Challenger a great drag racer and cruiser as opposed to a canyon carver or track day beast.

Chevrolet Camaro vs. BMW 2 Series

The 2 Series coupe is one of BMW's entry-level models, but don't think it's not worthy of competing against the Camaro. With 382 horsepower from its turbocharged six-cylinder, a smaller footprint and all-wheel drive, the M240i xDrive is just as entertaining as any of the V8-powered muscle cars. As an added bonus, the BMW has a higher-quality interior.
