The Chevy Camaro is a car that has been in existence since 1967, and obviously, in all these 42 years of its existence, it has been promoted through numerous commercials. In this post, we look at some of them, reliving the ads from our wonder years…many from much before a lot of us were even born, right up to today.
Before we get to the commercials themselves, you might want to take a look at the way the Chevy has looked like since inception, and the way it has evolved through the ages, in this video:
Now to get to the commercials themselves, the following is probably the earliest Camaro ad, dating back to 1967 when the Camaro was first launched – fiery, just like the Camaro itself!
This next ad is for the Chevrolet Camaro Super Hugger, from 1970. Sleek and simplistic, with a single person talking on-screen about all that the Camaro stands for. Killer punch line – “It’s not how young you are, it’s how old you aren’t“!
This is a 1978 ad that celebrated the comeback of the Chevy Camaro Z28:
The following is an absolute clutter-breaking and path-breaking ad from 1980 for the Camaro. There is absolutely no voiceover in this commercial; all we see is a fiery red Camaro first preparing itself and then taking off at full speed through the streets of what could be any typical American neighborhood. Brilliant!
A Camaro ad from 1986, typical and reminiscent of the carefree 80s:
Another classic commercial for the Camaro from 1993, with the punchline – “What else do you expect from the country that invented Rock and Roll?”
Powerful, “Who do you Love?” Camaro commercial from 1998:
Now to come to the current generation of commercials – zippy cars, peppy ads! This is for the 2009 Chevrolet Camaro:
Lastly, the following is a conceptual commercial (which could potentially become an actual one) for the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro, with the punchline, “Bring on the Storm”
Hope you enjoyed viewing all these commercials, together in one place, as much as we did, compiling and putting them together for you!
