Chevrolet has introduced the most track-capable Corvette, the 2015 Corvette Z06, which stretches the performance envelope for Corvette.
The new Z06 delivers levels of performance, technology and design that rival the most exotic supercars in the world. The model will offer a supercharged engine, an automatic transmission and a removable roof panel.
The flared fenders accommodate larger, wider wheels and tires for more grip. The larger vents provide more cooling air to the engine, brakes, transmission and differential. The more aggressive aerodynamic package generates true downforce for more cornering grip and high-speed stability. It has Michelin Pilot Super Sport Cup tires for enhanced grip and Brembo carbon ceramic-matrix brake rotors.
Inside the new Corvette Z06 is complemented by unprecedented attention to detail and build quality. All models feature a fully wrapped interior, where every surface is covered with premium, soft-touch materials. Available materials, depending on the trim level, include Napa leather, aluminum, carbon fiber and micro-suede.
The 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 will be powered by the all-new LT4 6.2L supercharged V-8 engine, expected to deliver an estimated 625 horsepower (466 kW) and 635 lb-ft of torque (861 Nm). The can be matched with either a seven-speed manual or an all-new, high-performance eight-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters for manual control.
