Product Overview

Chevrolet SS is a high-performance large sedan in production from 2014 to 2017. It is available with a GM LS3 V8 engine that displaces 6.2L.
Owners will probably enjoy the powerful V8, which is smoother than smaller engines and comes with an exhaust note that is sure to please.
With a 13.8L/100km (17.0mpg) fuel "dis-economy", however, owners have to be prepared to pay for their "smiles-per-mile".
Drivers who appreciate handling should keep in mind that the Chevrolet SS uses MacPherson front suspension, which doesn't provide the best cornering performance.
