New or Significantly Altered Models
- 2010 Chevrolet Camaro
- The Camaro returns after a six-year absence. The new model wears styling that is reminiscent of the first generation Camaro. Compared to the Mustang, the Camaro is bigger and heavier, but slightly smaller on the inside. Two powertrains are offered: a 3.6L V6 and a 6.2L V8. Six speed manual and automatic transmissions are offered in all trim levels.
- 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
- Chevy restyled the Equinox for the 2010 model year. The updated model is roughly the same size, but features new exterior and interior designs. A 2.4L four-cylinder becomes the new base engine, but the output is very close to that of last year's 3.4L V6. The four cylinder pays dividends with a dramatically improved fuel economy rating of 21/30 for FWD four-cylinder models. An optional 3.0L V6 offers 255-bhp and improved fuel economy
