You don't need to be a Chevrolet Camaro fan to recognize the importance of this badge. As such, the number of gearheads who are currently wondering what the golden bowtie has in store for the Camaro's future makes for quite a crowd.
The latest info on the matter comes from last summer's reports, which mention there will be a seventh-gen model, albeit without adding a certain timeline. Nevertheless, the current model is expected to shine until 2023.

And, if we take a look at the model's rich pedigree, there are still plenty of badges to be resurrected in these final years, with the Z/28 being an example as good as any.

Nevertheless, the question mentioned in the intro lingers. Sure, a Camaro without a V8 would be like... a Camaro without a V8. But what if the automotive producer is working on an extended family?

As it's been speculated before, Chevy could use the Camaro to introduce a rival for the Ford Mustang Mach-E electric crossover. And, in case you're wondering how such a vehicle could look like, the rendering we have here provides a potential answer.

This was made in Photoshop, albeit using a smartphone, which only makes for an ever greater achievement, so we'll tip our pixels to digital label Tuningcar PS - using the swipe feature of the post below will gradually reveal the origins of the image and this might be a bit of a surprise.

However, at least from where I'm standing, while the said rendering is cool, the actual car would be the opposite of that. Heck, fans are upset about Chevy using the Blazer nameplate for a soft crossover, so can you imagine the sort of reactions a Camaro SUV would get?

Ford and Porsche felt that now was the time to link the heritage of their Mustang and Turbo badges to their electron juice future, but this doesn't make it okay and here's to hoping the Camaro doesn't enter the list of opinion splitters.
