Chevrolet Camaro vs Dodge Viper

Two sports cars, compared on the same official records: MOT and inspection results, safety ratings, fuel use, recalls and owner complaints. 2 like-for-like measures: the Chevrolet Camaro leads on 1, the Dodge Viper on 1.

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
