Sales of the fifth-generation Camaro, now in its final model year, are expected to hit 500,000 units in March 2015, General Motors said Friday. Introduced in 2009 for the 2010 model year, the Camaro went on to become America’s best-selling muscle car, with more than 80,000 units sold per year from 2010 through 2014. Following the 2014 model year facelift, Camaro sales increased 7.1 percent to 86,297 examples, for the car’s second-best year of sales since its introduction. With deliveries for the first two months of 2015 up 3.6 percent over 2014, total sales have reached 493,815, and GM estimates it will deliver the 500,000th fifth-gen Camaro by the end of March.
"The fifth-generation Camaro has clearly resonated with both long-time Camaro fans and first time performance-car buyers," said Todd Christensen, Camaro marketing manager. "That sets the bar high for the next chapter of the car’s history." 2015 is the final year for the fifth-generation Camaro, with a redesigned sixth-gen pony to be introduced later this year as a 2016 model.
Expect Chevrolet to make a big fuss when the 500,000th fifth-gen Camaro is delivered, as well as launch a couple of special-edition models to celebrate the current generation’s passing into the history books.
