New York: General Motors' Chevrolet unveiled its 2010 Camaro on Monday, bringing back to life the iconic sports car it retired in 2002, but with a focus on fuel efficiency.
The new Camaro will get 11km per litre on the highway, GM said.
It will hit showrooms in the first quarter of 2009.
GM will offer the Camaro with V-6, 3.6-litre engines in its LS and LT models, along with V-8-powered, 6.2-litre engines in its SS model. Billed as a "fun, efficient sports car for the 21st century," GM hopes the new Camaro will appeal to enthusiasts and younger buyers.
"It's a sports car for a new generation of enthusiasts that doesn't forget the heritage that helped make the original a cultural icon," Ed Peper, GM North America vice-president for Chevrolet, said in a statement.
