Corvette Stingray Z06 tagged posts

In this weekend’s Orange County Auto Show, Chevrolet displayed the latest and greatest Corvette Z06.

The 2015 Corvette Z06 is equipped with a 6.2L supercharged LT4 V8 engine with a 1.7L Eaton R1740 TVS supercharger. The powerplant makes 650 hp and 650 lb-ft of torque.

Under the spotlight, the Corvette Z06 exterior looks really good. I have a chance to look at the interior briefly during the show, however from my point of view, the interior styling, materials and build quality is not up to its price level.

See the below photo gallery for more details.

We got this leaked dyno chart from Jalopnik, which clearly shows the output curve of the upcoming 2015 Corvette Z06.

Maximum output: 650hp @ 6400rpm
Maximum torque: 650 lb-ft @ 3600rpm

Although the chart does not show, according to GM, the engine is even able to supply a torque of 457 lb-ft at idle – that is a lot of muscle to move a car.

Update 06/06: below is the official power chart from GM.
