Where each one leads
Chevrolet Camaro
- On Canada's official test the most frugal 2024 Chevrolet Camaro uses 10.7 l/100 km, the 2017 Dodge Viper 16.6.
Dodge Viper
- Against cars of the same year, the Dodge Viper comes out better in New York safety inspections (fails 76% less often than average) than the Chevrolet Camaro (fails 42% less often than average).
Only measures that do not depend on how many cars were sold: pass and failure rates against cars of the same age, ratings, fuel use and CO₂. How we compare
