Next-Gen Camaro Rendering Has Bumblebee Written All Over It--a futuristic take by Michael McGee

The next-generation Chevrolet Camaro is still a long way off, but rendering of what the new pony car might look like have been surfacing the Internet quite often recently.

Last month we’ve encountered two different designs for the 2016 Camaro - a futuristic take by Michael McGee, who also created a 1:3 scale model, and a couple of sketches that could be passed on as concept propositions for the next-gen musclecar.

Now, the folks over at Camaro6G posted a brand new rendering on their Facebook page. Far from being out this world, the new study borrows several styling cues from the Bumblebee Camaro we’ve seen last year, including slender headlamps with LED treatment and a front grill that’s barely tall enough to include a Bowtie badge.

However, there’s a different story underneath, where a more aggressive spoiler and intake have been added. You’ll also notice that the rims are transferred from the brand new 2014 Camaro Z/28.

Next Generation Chevrolet Camaro potential direction sketches

by Chris Ecclestone of www.gmauthority.com

Following the first set of unofficial design renderings of the next sixth-generation Chevy Camaro is this second batch… and it is most certainly eye-catching.

The sketches seen here are somewhat of an evolutionary revolution — if such a thing ever existed — of the current fifth-gen Camaro, featuring aggressively-squinty front and rear fascias, a low roof line, and surface sculpting that whets our proverbial appetite, especially the intricate line from the front fender to the mid-door, along with the wide hips in the rear. Of course, those who thought that the 2014 Corvette C7 has “Camaro taillights” (it doesn’t) will unequivocally think that the sketch has Corvette taillights.

According to the Behance.com profile where we found the renderings, the creator is Jingxu Zhan from Detroit, Michigan. Having graduated from Shenzhen (China) Polytechnic Institute with a degree in Industrial Design in 2008, Zhan is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Transportation Design from the Fine Art at College for Creative Studies, set to graduate in May of 2014

As a reminder, the next-generation 2016/2015 Camaro will ride on GM’s state-of-the-art rear-wheel-drive vehicle architecture known internally as Alpha and shared with the Cadillac ATS, 2014 CTS, and the returning Buick Grand National and GNX. The Chevy sports car is expected to decrease in size and shed weight, thereby addressing the biggest complaints with the current fifth-gen model.
