The 2014 Chevrolet SS, Chevrolet’s first V8 rear-wheel-drive performance sedan since 1996,
is designed to deliver performance on the street and on the track.
Chevrolet SS
The 2014
Sharing its underpinnings with the Camaro,
Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle and Holden’s
VF Commodore, the SS benefits from a
proven, race-tested, global rear-wheel drive
architecture.
The SS features a high performance ver-
sion of the legendary Chevrolet 6.2L V8
small block engine and a 6-speed automatic
transmission equipped with TapShift
®
.
Here’s a closer look at the new SS.
POWERTRAIN
V8 Engine
The all-aluminum small-block 6.2L V8
engine (RPO LS3) produces 415 horse-
power (310 kW) @ 5900 rpm and 415 lb.-ft.
of torque (563 Nm) @ 4600 rpm, which
propels the SS to a 0-60 acceleration time
of about five seconds.
dexos 1™ SAE 5W-30 is the recommended
viscosity grade for the 6.2L engine. Do not
use other viscosity grade oils such as SAE
10W-30, 10W-40, or 20W-50.
Automatic Transmission
The 6-speed automatic transmission in-
cludes TapShift controls located on both
the shift knob and the steering wheel. It
includes a transmission oil cooler. The
engine’s torque is channeled to the rear
axle, which has a 3.27 ratio for a great feel-
ing of performance.
Sport Shift mode – can be selected for
maximum responsiveness. The transmission
will delay upshifts and allow earlier down-
shifts. In addition, the transmission can
sense enthusiastic driving, at which point it
may delay upshifting and downshift earlier
when braking.
Active Select (A/S) mode – allows
gears to be selected manually. It can also
provide engine braking by selecting the
appropriate lower gear on a steep down-
hill grade.
CHASSIS
4-Wheel Independent
Suspension
The SS is equipped with 4-wheel indepen-
dent Sport-Tuned suspension (FE3).
The front suspension is a multi-link
MacPherson strut setup with a direct-acting
stabilizer bar and progressive-rate coil
springs. Camber, caster and toe are fully
