In exactly two months from now, Chevrolet will unveil the all-new 2016 Camaro in Detroit. The sixth-generation Camaro will show its true colors for the first time on May 16 on Belle Isle, the 982-acre island park that is home to the Chevrolet Detroit Belle Isle Grand Prix.

“This will be an event Camaro fans will not want to miss. This is only the sixth time we have introduced an all-new Camaro. We wanted to share the moment with the customers and fans who have helped make Camaro both America’s favorite performance car for the past five years, and a cultural icon since 1967,” said Todd Christensen, Camaro marketing manager.

Chevrolet expects approximately 1,000 people to attend the Camaro reveal event, which will also include a “Camaro Museum” display of the most significant vehicles from the brand’s history, hot-lap rides in the 2015 Camaro Z/28 around the Belle Isle Grand Prix course, meet-and-greet opportunities with Camaro designers and engineers, as well as Camaro-only parking for owners.

Admission at the event is free, however fans must register at www.thecamarosix.com because space is limited. Fans who agree to bring their Camaros to Belle Isle will get priority access.

Chevrolet’s announcement was accompanied by a photo of the Camaro’s new logo, which is an interpretation of the three-stripe badge that first appeared on the model in the 1970s. The new emblem features the same red, white, and blue stripes but its shape has been stretched out horizontally. The new badge also features the word “Camaro” in big block letters above the stripes.
