At the Detroit Auto Show General Motors has unveiled its newest speed machine the 2015 Corvette Z06.
Continuing in a line of autos that defines what production speed can be, the 2015 Z06 sports a 6.2L LT4 supercharged V-8. Generating 625HP the new Corvette will also produce over 635 pound feet of torque when pushed to its limits. While no firm numbers have been released regarding the ‘Vette’s top speed or acceleration time I can only imagine they’ll be lightning fast.
Aside from the auto’s impressive mechanical specifications it’s also been given an expertly sculpted body. Shaped to maximize the down force exerted on the speedster, the Corvette’s new frame also helps force cooling air into it’s raging engine while cutting a sleek aerodynamic line.
Built for those who want to seamlessly switch from track to street racing the Z06 also features two transmission options, a manual for the purist, and an 8-speed automatic for the work-a-day racer.
As of this writing GM has yet to release pricing figures for the Z06, but rest assured that the auto giant will certainly loose more info about the car before it hits showrooms in early 2015.
