A new report with input from General Motors has stated that the mid-engine Chevrolet Corvette will not make its grand debut at next month’s 2019 North American International Auto Show in Detroit – meaning that we will all be waiting even longer for what could be the next generation of the legendary American sports car.

The 2019 Daytona 500 will bring back one of NASCAR's favorite drivers. Dale Earnhardt Jr. will be driving the 2019 Chevrolet Silverado as the pace vehicle.

Perhaps the most shocking move by General Motors last week was reassigning Camaro chief engineer Al Oppenheiser to the company’s electric vehicle program, taking him away from the muscle car program that he has led since the Camaro returned for 2010.

General Motors still hasn’t acknowledged the existence of a mid-engine Chevrolet Corvette, but what the automotive world believes to be the racing version of the C8 was recently captured on video testing at Sebring – giving us a great chance to hear the engine of the next Chevrolet Racing endurance car in action.

After meeting the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD earlier this week, the company has rolled out another shot of the all-new heavy duty truck – this time showcasing the premium High Country trim level with its own unique version of the polarizing new front end.

Ford Motor Company sold 72,102 F-Series trucks last month, marking the ninth-straight month in which more than 70,000 full-size trucks have been sold and making it very clear why the American automakers are focusing on trucks and sport utility vehicles rather than small and mid-sized sedans.

General Motors has introduced the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado Heady Duty, offering pictures and brief details on the next generation workhorse via a press release rather than rolling out the new truck at a major auto show.

More and more 2019 Chevrolet Silverados are hitting dealer lots. Although GM is not releasing monthly sales data, two new features are winning praise and sure to be popular.

The 2019 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye models are reaching dealerships and owners, keeping sales numbers strong and helping the Mopar muscle to outsell the Ford Mustang in November 2018.

OPINION ANALYSIS: America’s first plug in hybrid, a segment opening PHEV was put to death recently, the Chevrolet Volt was a cutting edge trailblazing vehicle that bridged the gap between siphoning off gas and waiting for battery technology to improve before pushing on to an all electric car world. So cancelling it seems counterintuitive. It is not. Actually Volt was a great accidental/incidental transition vehicle who’s time came and was way gone.

I recently spent a week behind the wheel of the 2018 Chevrolet Traverse RS and I was pleased to find that it offers a far sportier feel on the road than expected while also providing a smoother ride than the sportier SUVs on the 3-row segment.

General Motors announced at the 2018 SEMA Show in Las Vegas that the LT5 engine from the C7 Corvette ZR1 will be available as a crate engine from the company’s performance parts division and with the first orders being taken for the 755-horsepower V8, we know how much it costs.

The TorqueNews/Camaros Unlimited Camaro of the Month for November 2018, the winner is the stunning 1967 Chevrolet Camaro SS shown here, owned by Dwayne Cole.

Chevrolet says its Performance division is releasing 15 new parts that can turn your Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 into a real desert racer. Chevy says if you prefer, the new components can take you extreme off-roading.

The early C7 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 units were plagued with cooling issues during “normal” track time, but during a recent interview, chief engineer Tadge Juechter stated that those problems are a thing of the past, having been addressed before the 2017 model year Z06 hit the streets.

General Motors, Ram and Ford are focusing on the profitable truck market. Chevrolet, in particular, is trying to grow its successful midsize truck market, before Ford gets its new midsize Ranger up and running.

If this key fob proves to be real, General Motors is working on a Cadillac based on the upcoming mid-engine Corvette and based on what we can see in the pictures, it definitely looks to be real.

Chevrolet used the 2018 SEMA Show in Las Vegas to showcase what the company called a concept front end design, but with reports claiming that this will actually be the production front end very soon, we wanted to give you a look at the two designs side-by-side.

In my frustrating effort to keep pushing the movement toward full electric cars, I often get frustrated by the lack of enthusiasm and missed steps the legacy car makers have taken. If they really were enthused and eager to adapt to electric cars, they would have an all electric option for both their halo sports and pony cars. They don’t. Still. With lackluster Camaro sales, Chevy needs a “comeback kid” car. The eCOPO Camaro is it.

The Dodge Challenger continues its impressive sales climb, posting a 34% year over year gain in October and beating the slumping Ford Mustang to lead the sporty two-door coupe segment for the second time this year.

The biggest surprise from Chevrolet at the SEMA Show thus far is the introduction of two new COPO Camaro drag cars – one being the 2019 production car and the other being an all-electric, 9-second concept.

Unofficial reports indicate that the concept front end on the Chevrolet Camaro SS show that set to debut next week at the SEMA Show could be the new production front end very soon.

A recent customer survey from Chevrolet was posted on Camaro6.com, asking potential Camaro buyers whether they would consider a hybrid V8 with 545 horsepower and the ability to yield 24 miles per gallon combined with an upcharge of $8,000 – suggesting that the automaker could be cooking up a high performance hybrid muscle car.

Specialty Vehicle Engineering has cooked up a set of Yenko/SC performance packages for the 2019 Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE and their Stage 2 kit is a showstopper – packing 1,000 horsepower and a base price in the range of $112,000.

We will soon see classic Chevy muscle cars cruising the streets with the 755-horsepower LT5 from the C7 Corvette ZR1, as Chevrolet Performance will soon be offering supercharged V8 in the crate engine portfolio – with the official announcement coming later this month at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas.

Ron Capps and his Don Schumacher Racing Dodge Charger R/T funny car grabbed their third win of the 2018 this past weekend in North Carolina, moving him into the third spot in the championship battle with just two races left on the season.

Chevrolet has previewed the first of their customized Camaro show cars that will debut later this month at SEMA and in addition to a handful of components from the brand’s accessory catalog, this car introduces the world to the new “Shock” exterior color – coming to dealers early next year.

If you have always wanted a C2 Chevrolet Corvette, but you want it to be smaller, less powerful and, well, built on the underpinnings of a Mazda Miata, you are in luck, as the Japanese body kit company Mitsuoka is now offering an elaborate body kit for the MX-5 that transforms it into a sort of tiny classic Vette.

Chevrolet has made the Malibu progressively sportier with each modern refresh, but those owners who wish that their mid-sized sedan was as aggressively designed as the Camaro ZL1, you are in luck, as a company named AeroNine now offers a body kid for the Malibu that has a front end styled after the supercharged muscle car.

The 2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 has proven itself as one of the greatest road-handling street cars of all time, turning in the second-quickest time in the Car & Driver Lightning Lap event, trailing only the Porsche 911 GT2 RS Weissach in the 12-year run of the magazine’s annual shootout.
