General Motors Co. on Monday revealed nine Chevrolet performance concepts and six SUV and truck concepts a day ahead of the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show in Las Vegas, including a new 2014 COPO Camaro production drag-racing model that will be limited to just 69 cars.
Chevrolet will show a number of vehicles at the trade-only show this week. They range from a Silverado truck inspired by country singer Brad Paisley and a Tony Stewart Silverado LTZ Z71 concept with “smoke” graphics, to a Jeff Gordon-styled Chevrolet SS performance sedan concept and a Corvette Stingray Gran Turismo featured in the “Gran Turismo 6” video game.
“We really want to showcase Chevrolet to be the brand of choice for personalization, performance and enhanced capability,” said Jim Campbell, GM’s U.S. vice president of performance vehicles and motorsports.
The COPO (Central Office Production Order) Camaros built for NHRA Stock Eliminator and Super Stock drag-racing events have new front and rear fascia, racing seats and new wheel design and graphics. Buyers have a choice of naturally aspirated and supercharged engines. The cars are not street legal.
