For over six decades, the Chevy Corvette has been one of the most recognized sports cars in the country. From the very beginning, the designers of the Corvette had one goal in mind: Provide owners with a one-of-a-kind driving experience. The Corvette has gone through some changes throughout the years, but the core goal has always stayed the same.
Chevy recently announced that it would continue to improve the already iconic vehicle. As a result, the all-new 2023 Chevy Corvette Z06 will feature a head-turning design as well as a powerful engine under the hood. Here is a look at what you can expect to find on the all-new Corvette Z06.
The Corvette Z06 delivers an exterior that is fun to look at and helps improve performance. The body is outlined in smooth curves and strong, sculpted lines, which allows the wind to glide around the vehicle. The vehicle can also come equipped with lightweight carbon fibre ground effects to improve aerodynamics. A standard high-wing carbon fibre spoiler also provides an impressive amount of downforce.
The Z06 also features wider wheels and tires as well as wider front and rear fascias. This model is 3.6 inches wider than the Stingray and provides sturdier and more agile handling.
The Z06 also has several optional features that allow you to customize it to fit your needs. For instance, the Coupe comes standard with a removable roof panel. However, an electronic retractable roof is available and allows you to seamlessly lower the hardtop into the back of the car with just a push of a button.
This impressive vehicle also offers a Z07 performance package that adds Michelin Pilot Cup 2 tires and carbon-ceramic brakes. Available carbon fibre wheels can be added to reduce the car's total weight by 41 pounds. It also includes a carbon fibre high rear wing and specific chassis tuning.
The Z06's exquisite design is not just reserved for the exterior. The cabin features a race-inspired design that is highlighted by graceful and elegant features.
The cockpit was specifically designed to provide the maximum amount of convenience to the driver. The larger touchscreen infotainment display is positioned on the dash, facing the driver's seat. This allows the driver to quickly scan the display without taking his or her eyes off of the road for too long. The flat-bottom steering wheel further gives the interior a racing feel. And the driver and front passenger seats are ergonomically designed to provide a comfortable place to sit when travelling around curves at high speeds.
The rest of the cabin is well-crafted and is adorned in premium materials, including genuine leather.
The Z06 comes with a naturally aspirated 5.5-litre LT6 mid-engine V8 paired to a dual-clutch gearbox and delivers an impressive 670 horsepower and 460 lb.-ft of torque. This hand-crafted engine features a flat-plane crank that delivers enhanced airflow and provides low rotational inertia. The unique flat-plane design allows you to hear and feel the rumble of the engine as it revs up to 8,000 RPMs.
With this powerful engine, the Z06 is able to go from 0 to 60 in just 2.6 seconds. Because this engine is so fast and powerful, the Z06 comes with an advanced damping system. The Magnetic Ride Control 4.0 uses a series of intelligent sensors to read the road every 10 to 15 milliseconds. It then automatically adapts to ensure that the vehicle is able to stay firmly planted on the road while travelling at high speeds.
The Z06 is offered in six different trim levels. Here is a look at the unique features that each model provides.
The main difference between the Coupe and the Convertible is that the Z06 Coupe comes with a removable roof panel. And the Z06 Convertible comes standard with a retractable hardtop. Other features include:
• 8-way power GT1 seats
• Power tilt and telescoping steering column
• 10-Speaker Bose premium audio system
• Rear Park Assist
• Rear Vision Camera
• Colour Heads-Up Display
This model comes standard with a few more interior comforts, which include:
• Heated and ventilated seats with lumbar support
• Driver and passenger memory seats
• 14-Speaker Bose premium audio system
• Rear Cross-Traffic Alert
• Side Blind Zone Alert
This model features a cabin that is adorned with premium materials. Some of the highlighted features include:
• GT2 seats with Nappa leather and carbon-fibre trim
• Carbon-fibre paddle shifters
• Suede microfiber interior trim
• Leather-wrapped door panels and instrument cluster
