The Chevrolet Camaro has so many faces it could be a government spy, and, because the more the better, Chevy is giving it another guise for another model year. The 2020 SS and a new LT1 performance trim will get their own new faces, which are slightly different from the myriad of Camaro faces that […]
GM’s been making headlines lately because of plant shutdowns and job cuts, but now for some not-terrible news: The company says it will add 400 jobs in Michigan as it invests $300 million into a new electric car, which will be sold in addition to—and based on the architecture of—the Chevrolet Bolt.Read more… Continue Reading […]

Anniversaries, in the car world but also yours, are a way for companies to celebrate themselves while also raking in cash with marked-up “anniversary” products.

It’s…Read more… […]
