Chevy get serious about weight savings in the 2016 models

Gm changed 70% of the parts for the 2016 Camaro

The above piece is the instrument panel cross beam, now made of aluminum, saving 9/7 pounds.

Using aluminum for the front and rear suspension assemblies has also cut the suspension's weight by 21 percent, about 26 pounds less than the 5th gen Camaro.

Fasteners are now light weight, and no longer than actually necessary.

Many things combined to shave 200 pounds off the v8, and 300 pounds off the v6 model Camaro
