Rumors have been circulating the Web that General Motors’ financial condition has indefinitely delayed the open air version of the Chevrolet Camaro, but a new report indicated the Camaro Convertible is alive and well and still on track for a 2011 launch.
The Camaro Convertible’s launch date has been pushed back several times, but Chevrolet has never considered completely cancelling the program. “The convertible was never canceled,” General Motors spokesman Terry Rhadigan told Automotive News. “It was retimed. It will be the first quarter of 2011 for the start of production.”
The Camaro Convertible was originally slated to begin production in December 2009. However, further financial woes pushed that date back to May 2010 before being ultimately shifted to February 2011 – almost a full two years after the coupe started production at GM’s Oshawa, Ontario plant.
When the Camaro Convertible finally does make production, it will be available with V6 and V8 engines.
