2017 Chevrolet Camaro 1LE Revealed With V-6 And V-8 Options: Live Photos

Today is the opening day of the 2016 Chicago Auto Show and one of the cars we saw unveiled is a new Chevrolet Camaro 1LE. The all-new, sixth-generation Camaro is already an impressive set of wheels straight out of the box. In fact, the car in its SS guise even took out our Best Car To Buy 2016 award.

Now the car has been enhanced with a new 1LE package. The package dates back to 1989 and originally designated a Camaro developed to be more competitive in Showroom Stock road racing series. Today, it provides track enthusiasts with a Camaro setup that’s highly capable of carving up corners without the need for further modification.

The new 1LE package, which is being introduced for the 2017 model year, will be available for both the V-6 and V-8 variants of the sixth-gen Camaro. Chevy tells us the decision to offer a V-6-equipped Camaro 1LE for the first time was made due to customer demand.

The V-6-equipped Camaro 1LE features more aggressive suspension tuning, standard Brembo brakes (with six-piston calipers up front) and Goodyear Eagle F1 tires, enough, Chevy tells us, for an estimated 0.97 g in cornering grip. Available extras include Recaro bucket seats and Chevy’s Performance Data Recorder.
