Description: It is also suggested that this breakthrough could also bring down the price tag for EV's in the future. We will likely be able to see these new battery cells first appear in GM vehicles since En...

Everything in Venezuela is cheap. You could buy a house for the same as a car down payment in the states
In Venezuela, you can fill your gas tank with 1 US dollar, and still have change left over. Gasoline is cheaper than water.
A couple years ago I heard of a country in south America that keeps all the oil they produce that they'd need. So their gas prices were something like $0.30 a liter
Hydrogen power would be expensive to implement. Just one aspect of it is that a tanker that can carry petrol for 700 cars can only carry hydrogen for 70 cars.
Actually E85 is more like 94-96 octane according to the renewable fuels foundation. One of the main reasons why you can make more power with E85 is because of the colder combustion temperatures which means you can run higher compression or more boost
You guys do know that it's possible to make ethanol yourself, cuz I do. Btw it's not worse so get you facts straight, E-85= octane 115 gas, I have no loss of mpgs with the slight mods I've done, and at the pump it's avg. $3.24 a gallon.
I still like the idea of hydrogen power. Hydrogen goes in, water comes out. And there is practically an unlimited supply.
Yeah, Chris, this is all Obama's fault. Everything bad to have ever happened ever is Obama's fault. Not the world market or the general concepts of economic scarcity or energy diversity. Just Obama. All day. Forever.
Of course gas prices will stay high. GM/Obama wants these coal powered EVs. What an idiot. Oh wait, when are we going to get our algae powered camaros? I know. NEVER!
It is worse because it has a third less energy content therefore needing 50% more fuel to make the same power.... And it is more expensive than gasoline.
The Boss is amazing, but did you forget about the GT500 SS?
Yeah Brad is right. This article is all a theoretical "what if" about GM's future EVs. CarBuzz just threw the camaro in there to stir up controversy. That's pretty deceptive news reporting CarBuzz; if you can call it news.
they had on of theis at the Boston car show not electric of course and I text drove it not impressed
@stephen, the boss is amazing looking however, all the mustangs pretty much look the same. So the challenger would win
No, the boss 302 just looks like it's made of Lego bricks... This however looks amazing...
Best looking EV yet. So then dodge will have the best looking muscle car (cuz they will have the only muscle cars)
Like the red idea, should been symmetrical though. Never see stripes in two colors
This would be the perfect Camaro to rip all that electric B.S. out of and drop a Hemi in!
Matt your probably shaped wrong. I sat in one and it was super comfortable, great position, great shifter and clutch feel. Also most the things were covered in leather. Soft and awesome. Sure you weren't sittin in a supra?
Well of course it has parts from other cars, that's how muscle cars started. A lot of power for a cheap price
I satin one of these at the toronto autoshow... As I did many other cars.... And this has the worst driving position of any car I've ever been in!!!!!!!!!! U sit really low and everything is really high... And I'm 6 foot so it's not like that's affecting the visabiliy... Also u cant rest ur arms on anything because the arm rest is too high.... And the windows are way to short
Remember, if they didn't borrow parts from other lines and skimp a lil here and there, these cars would look awesome. But be totally unaffordable. It does the job...
I'm not a chevy guy, but I am starting to really like the Camaro. BUT that dash! -C'mon!
Because it's a gas Camaro. If you read the article you will discover that new battery technology is owned by a GM-owned company, and the author drew the conclusion that an electric Camaro is possible because the batteries would be cheaper
If it is a EV why does it have a manual shifter? Or are they just showing the petrol model.
Never a fan of stitching. Gets dirty to fast and is noticeable. My console is a fine example of "looks cool, not for everyday use" stitching...
Can you really have a 45th anniversary if you went out of production for 6 years? I guess 39th just doesn't have the same ring to it.
I guess if your going to ruin a "muscle" car the best one to kill is the camaro.
I'm sorry, but if electricity will be the mainstream source of transportation, won't electrical usage skyrocket and the price of electricity jump and gasoline will start to cost less and we'll be in the same situation now?
People don't realize that some of the electricity that is created is made from petroleum generators
In sorry, but an electric muscle car cannot be done
To all the people ranting about wanting to have your gasoline powered cars: technology like this may be the only thing keeping our combustion engines from going extinct soon. The more people who drive EVs and such, the more petroleum products for us.
But this technology isn't ready yet, it's very hard to controll
This is an awesome break through! Hopefully this battery technology will trickle down to other products, such as smartphones.
Dave electric cars have and can do all those things
What the fudge are they thinking?!
Such a sad sad day. :(
This is stupid, I really like the sound of actual engines.
Hahah. The modern muscle car won't be a muscle car anymore. It's just going to be another EV
I'm not against electric as long as they're powerful enough to leave a portion of your tires on the road!! And they have a good range
Is this the movies? I'm sick Of everything electric it's annoying us real car guys need our horsepower and burning rubber and racing
Sports cars ARE NOT electric. Period.
Not a joke, the Nissan Leaf has a special sound for pedestrians who will not hear the car coming.
Ben did you ever see that movie 'the dilemma' where they try to make electric cars have sound... what a joke
My biggest concern would be the sound when you put your foot to the floor.
Indeed. 300 miles is more than most people travel daily, and as the article stated, that's a huge increase
I'm not an EV fan but kevin seriously. Whats the difference if i have to stick a hose to fill the tank or plug it in over night. Its not like i have sleep next to car while its plugged in
Good lord, this would happen in California wouldn't it
If EVs are going to be the future, then the fact you have to plug and unplug them is an inconvenience. If you buy an EV, it should come with an inductive charging mat to put on your garage floor, kind of like the mats made for small electronics. Much more convenient than a cord.
I can't stand EVs, but those are some impressive numbers. Love em or hate em, that's a fantastic breakthrough. Not just for cars, but for battery technology in general.
