The Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is the most powerful and technologically advanced model in the iconic car's 62-year history. The Z06 rejoins the Corvette lineup in 2015 with a strong aluminum frame, an aero package designed to produce performance-enhancing downforce and an all-new, supercharged 6.2L V-8 engine producing 659 horsepower (485 kW) and 881 Nm of torque. The all-new Corvette Z06 is the most powerful production car ever from General Motors and one of a few production cars available in the United States that delivers more than 600 horsepower. With the available Z07 package, the supercar accelerates from 0-100 in 3.4* seconds with the eight-speed automatic and in 3.8* seconds with the seven-speed manual transmission.

To balance performance and efficiency, the Z06 leverages the same trio of advanced technologies introduced on the Corvette Stingray – direct injection, Active Fuel Management (cylinder deactivation) and continuously variable valve timing – and leverages them with a new, more efficient supercharger. Combined with the fuel-efficient transmissions, aerodynamic design and lightweight construction, they help make the new Z06 surprisingly frugal.

"The new Corvette Z06's performance and technical capabilities makes it one of today's most desirable supercars," said Thomas Sedran, President and Managing Director, Chevrolet and Cadillac Europe. "It is the first Z06 to offer an eight-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission and, thanks to a stronger aluminum frame, a removable roof panel. In addition, it is the first time since 1963 that the Z06 is available as a convertible," Sedran added.

First deliveries in Europe this spring

The Z06 coupe will be offered at a suggested retail price of €109,500 while the convertible model will start at €114,500 (retail prices for Germany). The first deliveries to European customers of the Corvette Z06 with manual transmission are expected in spring of 2015 and for the automatic transmission variant in early summer.

The Corvette Z06 is built at GM’s Bowling Green, Kentucky, assembly plant in the U.S.A.
