In 1975, Chevy decided to drop the Z28 model and after the loss of the SS model, the 1975 Camaro was steadily becoming a more conservative vehicle under the hood.

A steady stream of vehicle-related regulations, continuing fears of oil shortages, and a bigger focus on fuel efficiency may have been shorting the 1975 Camaro’s horsepower but not its production levels. In 1975 the Camaro stood alone in the ‘pony car’ category.
