(Chevrolet)
GM has announced that the Chevrolet Camaro will be retired at the conclusion of the 2024 model year. The final, sixth-generation Camaros will come off the assembly line at the Lansing Grand River Assembly Plant in Michigan in January 2024. "As we prepare to say goodbye to the current generation Camaro, it is difficult to overstate our gratitude to every Camaro customer, Camaro assembly line employee and race fan,” said Scott Bell, vice president, Global Chevrolet. “While we are not announcing an immediate successor today, rest assured, this is not the end of Camaro’s story.” Chevrolet will offer a Collector’s Edition package on the 2024 Camaro RS and SS, and on a limited number of ZL1-equipped vehicles available in North America. The Collector’s Edition will pay homage to Camaro, referencing ties that date back to the development of the first generation Camaro in the 1960s, when the program’s initial code name was Panther. More information on the 2024 Camaro and the Collector’s Edition package will be available closer to the start of orders this summer.
Editor's Note: GM announced last week that Global Chief Marketing Officer Deborah Wahl has "elected to retire." The highly-talented Wahl joined GM in 2018 as CMO of Cadillac and was promoted to GM's global CMO in 2019. Her departure leaves a HUGE void at the company, and this news is as devastating as it is surprising, given the marketing challenges GM faces as it hurtles toward mass EV adoption. Compounding this giant Bowl of Not Good are hints that GM's board of directors is starting to take a more active role in the company's marketing direction, which could include pressuring GM to hire its next CMO from outside the auto industry. No way can this board involvement be seen as a positive development. -WG
Certainly agree in the main - even the 5th Gen was a disappointment as "retro", and the 2016 re-do on Alpha would have benefitted from a complete overhaul of ergonomics & outward visibility to ensure the problems with 5th Gen were addressed, but they only got worse. I put that on Ed Welburn, and said so more than once. If retro was even necessary, the elements from 2nd Gen would have been the way to take the Camaro design forward after 2015, IMO.
From 50 years later, there's a lot more that has to be packaged into these vehicles in the way of safety systems, impact standards, etc. that makes for challenges. So many of the bells & whistles in vehicles today have become standard to provide convenience & nanny features that too many think are necessary....just give me a "performance pack" version, minimal added electronics.....let me enjoy the mechanical functions of a car without these filters.
I guess that's why I'm building my own.....

I'll admit that I am a sucker for the 6th gen in ZL1 'vert guise! But, that's where I draw the line! 
If I were a wealthy man, I'd have added a Shock Yellow 'vert to the stable, but I digress.

So, if Chevrolet is going to stop making the Camaro in January 2024, what does that mean for NASCAR? It is interesting, and complicated.
