GM released the Chevrolet Camaro in the USA during 2010. But as at 1st July 2010 there has been no official word about the car actually being sold as a RHD model in Australia as a factory right hand drive car.
In Jan 2010 GM Holden president Alan Batey quickly stated that the Camaro was not a definite starter for Australia and that it would not come unless GM offered to deliver it fairly soon.
“I can tell you categorically that it is not coming in 2010. Can it come in 2011? If they act fast in the next 90 days and say ‘Ok, what are your volumes, let’s go’ they could probably tool up that fast,” Mr Batey said.
“The truth is we don’t have a launch date. Can it happen fast? Yes it can,” he said. Mr Batey said Holden would be keen to sell the Camaro, but has concerns that it won’t do well if it arrives too late.
On the 2nd of July Chevrolet announced that it would also release the Camaro into the UK market in early 2011. On the day it was also announced that the Goodwood Festival of Speed would be the location for the debut of the Chevrolet Camaro in the UK.
