It’s the end of the road for the iconic American muscle car...
It’s official: 2024 will be the final production year for the Chevrolet Camaro. I’d love to say this comes as a shock, but it sadly doesn’t.

By doing that, that automaker telegraphed this punch.

Rumors about the Camaro’s demise have been circulating for years. Some people who claim to have started them are taking some sort of victory lap. While I also correctly predicted this eventuality (and who couldn’t?) it’s anything but something to be celebrated.
We’re being told at the moment that the American muscle car won’t be killed by electrification, yet it’s happening. Sure, in the future GM might slap the Camaro name on some electric appliance like what Ford’s done with the Mustang and what Dodge will probably do with the Charger and Challenger. But true V8 muscle cars are going away in this country.
