What year was the first Chevrolet Camaro SS made?

My sister and I are huge fans of the Chevy Camaro, and we can’t agree on what the first year is for the SS. Can you help answer this question?

Chevrolet
introduced the
Camaro SS
back in 1966.
The Camaro was built to compete with the
Ford Mustang
and featured sporty options like:
  • A beastly 5.7L or 6.5L V8
  • Chassis upgrades from the base RS trim for better handling
  • A variety of transmission options
Since 1966, the Camaro SS has only gotten better. In 2022, drivers can choose either the 1SS or the
2SS
, both of which feature a standard 455-hp V8 and added details like microsuede trim and Recaro front seats to keep you snuggled in while zooming through twisty roads.
If you or your sister are in the market for a new or used Camaro SS, you’ll need to be sure you have solid
car insurance
to cover you in case you can’t resist the temptation to test out that wicked engine. While insurance on a sports car can often be expensive, the experts at
