Those same modern EFI tricks
mean the Camaro's
big 6.2 - liter V8 is perfectly content puttering along in traffic, and huge torque reserves allow the car to be left in fourth gear for just about any driving over 15 mph; at the same time, a sixth gear
means the SS cruises at 80 mph on the
highway turning fewer than 2,000 rpm, so there's a tremendous amount of flexibility in the powertrain.
Although a small car, the
big engine
means fuel economy of only 17 mpg city and 24 mpg
highway, according to EPA tests.
