Here's a more recent Motor Authority on this subject. It's from December, 2020.

Sixth-Gen Chevrolet Camaro Could Live On Until 2026

Sixth-Gen Chevrolet Camaro Could Live On Until 2026
BY SAM MCEACHERN— DEC 24, 2020

The sixth-generation Chevrolet Camaro could live on until the 2026 model year, according to a recent report out of Australia.

The last we heard, General Motors was planning to pull the plug on the sixth-generation Chevy Camaro in 2023 following the end of production of the 2024 model year vehicle. However a new report from Whichcar.com.au indicates GM will extend the production end date to the 2026 model year.

While this is the first we’ve heard of a supposed production extension for the sixth-generation Chevy Camaro, it appears to make sense. GM has already committed to the Australian Supercars series’ new Gen3 ruleset and will race a sixth-generation Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 in the championship from the 2022 season onward. It wouldn’t be very cost effective or practical to make a multi-year commitment to a racing series with a vehicle that will go out of production not even 24 months later, so there just may be some substance to these rumors.

Additionally, the Whichcar report indicates GM is looking at re-introducing the sixth-generation Chevrolet Camaro to the Australian market by as early as next year. Again, it wouldn’t make much sense for GM to go through the trouble of setting up a program to ship Camaros to Australia and convert them to right-hand-drive locally only to pull the plug less than two years later. If the Camaro is confirmed for the General Motors Special Vehicles lineup, it would certainly add some credence to the claims that it will live on past its current planned 2023 end date.

If its anything less than a 2 door V8 coupe and convertable, just keep the nameplate in the history books.

True, though I remember we said the same about dodge bringing back the Charger nameplate, took a bit but I'd say it worked out. Dart failed though so I guess it's not all roses.

I wouldn't trust a source like this. It is just clickbait.

If they were to bring back a 4 door v8 car, give it the Malibu nameplate.

I guess I'm a little prickly in the subject because I owned one a long time ago lol

the camaro is already dead. they built a car that performs well above its weight and they still can’t sell them.

The old GM faithful aren’t so faithful after all.
