Today Chevrolet released prices of the all-new, made-in-the-U.S.A. (soon) 2016 Camaro. The base Camaro 1LT with no options, which will be a rare sight at any dealership, starts at just $26,695 MSRP. The most powerful Camaro SS ever starts at $37,295. Figure $40K for a well-equipped 1SS. In addition to releasing prices, Chevy has built a "Visualizer" that shoppers can use to dress their Camaro before visiting a dealer. Click here to see that.

Although we mention that stripped base Camaros will be unusual inventory items, Chevy has significantly upped the standard 1LT content and it will have a lower base price according to Todd Christensen, Camaro marketing manager, who said, “We expect it will be even more popular as the 2016 Camaro 1LT is priced less than the 2015 model and offers significantly more standard features and technologies.” Here is a list that Chevy says was either optional or not available on base Camaros in the past:

Chevrolet MyLink with Apple CarPlay capability
OnStar 4G LTE connectivity with Wi-Fi hotspot
Driver Mode Selector with Snow/Ice, Tour and Sport modes on all models and Track mode on SS
Remote vehicle starter system (with an automatic transmission)
Driver information center with color display
Keyless access with push-button start
Rear vision camera
Automatic climate control
Leather-wrapped flat-bottom steering wheel
LED daytime running lamps
Capless fuel filler
Variable-ratio electric power steering
8-way power driver, 6-way power passenger seats
Electronic park brake
Driver and front passenger knee air bags

The New Camaro RS package adds RS-specific grille inserts, a rear spoiler, 20-inch aluminum wheels, High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps with LED signature lamps, and LED taillamps

The 1SS Camaro gets all the goodies found in the 1LT and RS plus this content:

Cooling systems for the differential, transmission and engine oil
Brembo brakes with four-piston front and rear calipers
Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 run-flat tires.
Active Rev Matching (manual transmission models only)
Limited slip differential (manual transmission models only)
Configurable Driver Information Center

Chevy's 2SS adds all the luxury goodies such as:

- Leather heated and ventilated front seats

- Wireless phone charging

- Interior spectrum lighting

- Heated steering wheel

- Head-up display

- Bose premium audio

- Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, and Side Blind Zone Alert with Lane Change Alert

Christensen expects two-thirds of Camaro buyers will go all-in and get the fully-loaded 2SS. The only other options not included on the 2SS buyers may add are magnetic ride control, the eight-speed auto transmission, in-dash Navi, dual-mode exhaust and a power sunroof.
