Η Chevrolet παρουσίασε το MY2016 SS με τις αλλαγές να είναι μικρές. Συναντάμε νέους προφυλακτήρες, νέα γρίλια, νέες ζάντες 19″ και LED φώτα ημέρας. Μηχανικά, ο V8 6,2-λίτρων κινητήρας παραμένει ως έχει, αποδίδοντας 415 άλογα, αποκτώντας ωστόσο νέα εξάτμιση, που παράγει πιο έντονο ήχο.

SS Designed for Performance

DETROIT – Building on the performance-oriented updates made to the Chevrolet SS last year, the 2016 model features several exterior enhancements that reinforce its presence on the road.

A revised front fascia features new, vertical ducts at the outer edges to direct airflow over the front wheel openings to improve aerodynamic efficiency. The fascia also incorporates new LED signature lighting, while new, functional hood vents and new-design 19-inch cast-aluminum wheels contribute to a stronger appearance for the rear-drive sports sedan.

“The 2016 SS design changes more fully express the true driving character of the sedan while further enhancing the car’s overall performance,” said Todd Christensen, Chevrolet Performance Car marketing manager.

What hasn’t changed is the SS’s unique blend of performance, comfort and spaciousness. It features a 6.2L V-8 engine under the hood and turns out an SAE-certified 415 horsepower (310 kW) and 415 lb-ft of torque (563 Nm), and offers a six-speed manual transmission or a paddle-shift six-speed automatic transmission.

A new, dual-mode exhaust system for 2016 complements the V-8 engine with quieter performance at low engine speeds and a more muscular engine note at wide-open throttle.
