The 1991 Camaro is an important vehicle to Chevrolet for the convertible market segment. The RS is a member of a series of two trim levels for the Camaro which include RS and Z28. The two-door car with its rear-wheel drive is positioned to aggressively fill this niche for Chevrolet. There is strong competition from vehicles from Nissan.
In 1991 Ford released the Mustang LX to the car-buying market. The Mustang came in two configurations: . The LX configuration is powered by the 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine, which makes 30 highway miles and 22 city. The Mustang competes in the Convertible market segment, in direct competition with Hyundai.
Standard equipment in the Camaro for 1990 and 1991 includes the 5.0 liter engine by General Motors, weighing in at 8 cylinders and sixteen valves. A 4-speed Automatic Transmission puts the power of the Chevrolet engine to the pavement. This is a long-standing favorite for buyers in the Coupe arena.
The restyled Camaro RS is equipped with a 5.0-liter eight-cylinder engine that utilizes 16 valves. The Chevrolet engine is mated to a Hydra-Matic four-speed transmission. This has resulted in an increase in horsepower and torque over the 1990 version.
