Reuss also said he wants the car to be an electric vehicle based on GM's flexible Ultium EV platform and battery technology set. He said its base price could match the $34,995 base price of . That's slightly higher than the base price of the sixth-generation Camaro in its final year, but with incentives, some buyers could potentially drive away with a car costing less than $30,000.But adopting the Ultium platform will result in delays, which may be the reason Chevy hasn't said when the new Camaro will arrive. Reuss in his interview with Motor Trend said GM still needs to further scale up battery production.
Reuss didn't say whether the Camaro will still be a coupe for its next generation. There have been rumors of the nameplate or possibly even a crossover akin to the Mustang Mach-E. Though hardcore fans may dismiss the change, shaking things up may be good for a nameplate whose annual sales in recent years averaged less than 30,000 units.
