New Athleticism for the 2016 Camaro?

Posted on by

There will be a leaner, more athletic design for the 2016 Camaro, which will be introduced on May 16, during a special public event in Detroit. There are several new additions to the design of the Camaro including an aluminum hood with a sculpted look that appears as though it is “form-fitted” around the mechanical components. The outcome? The hood looks as though it has been shrink-wrapped around the engine. The modifications make the Camaro look lower and wider when in reality; it’s smaller than its predecessor.

The anticipation is almost too much!  We can’t wait for its reveal…can you?

2016 Chevrolet Malibu

When we hear someone say “all-new” at the dealership, there are several things that come to mind. New technology, advanced safety features, shiny exterior and connectivity are just to name a few. On April 1st, when Chevy introduced the 2016 Malibu, the word “all-new” took on a whole new meaning.

Longer and lighter, with more interior space than ever before, the 2016 Malibu boasts an impressive line-up of features. Its improved fuel economy offers an estimated 4.9L/100km city, 5.2L/100km highway driving. As a new hybrid sedan, the re-designed Malibu will certainly give our competitors a run for their money.

2016 MalibuAdditional vehicle highpoints include:

  • GM exclusive OnStar 4G LTE in-vehicle connectivity and wireless phone charging
  • Standard safety technologies (10 standard air bags, with available features including: Forward Collision Alert, Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Automatic Parking Assist)
  • All-new Teen Driver feature – this will allow you to view your child’s driving habits, speed, warning alerts and so much more.
  • New power-dense Ecotec 1.5L turbo engine with fuel-saving stop/start technology (standard feature)
  • Chevrolet MyLink with an 7 inch touch screen is standard on LS, LT and Hybrid models
  • Chevrolet MyLink with an 8 inch touch screen is available on LT and Hybrid Models and standard on Premier model
  • Chevrolet MyLink with navigation is available with 8 inch MyLink system and features three dimensional maps.
  • OnStar 4G LTE with Wi-Fi hotspot is standard on all models (includes 3 month/3GB data trial – whichever comes first)

The styling on the all-new Malibu is similar in many ways to the 2014 Impala. It’s sleek, elongated and shows off the dual-port grille. Contemporary lighting is a strong characteristic and includes light-emitting diode (LED daytime running lamps available on LT and Premier Models). The Malibu Premier also includes LED taillamps. With so much to offer, there is no doubt you will want to take this vehicle for a test-drive when it hits our showroom floor in the late fall of this year.

A familiar EV for Canadian Consumers

Ontario, British Columbia, and Quebec are welcoming the Chevrolet Spark Electric Vehicle in 2016. The Spark EV was previously only available to Canadian fleet buyers and some U.S. states, but will now become an exciting option for consumers who can take advantage of their province’s incentive programs.

In Ontario, the incentive could range from $5,000 – $8,500 towards the purchase or lease of an eligible, new plug-in hybrid electric or battery electric vehicles. The rebate is determined by the vehicle’s battery capacity. Homeowners can also apply for rebates up to $1000 towards the installation of 240 V Level 2 home chargers for their garage or driveway.

sparkevWith an EPA-rated 132 km range, the Chevy Spark’s exciting 327 lb-ft of torque makes a standstill to 60 mph in just 7.2 seconds.  The Spark’s DC quick-charge can replenish the batteries up to 80 percent in roughly 20 minutes.

With the Spark’s primary audience being young drivers, this electric vehicle may get attention it deserves from green-minded Canadians. Look for the rollout of this smart Chevy at Queenston by the end of this year!
