Chevrolet Corvette Z06

Chevrolet introduced one of it most powerful convertible ever produced, the Z06 Corvette has been always a class of its own in the supercars range for more than 40 years.
The Z06 handles better than the standard Corvette and stick to the road a lot better as well thanks to its aluminum structure 20% stiffer than the old model, and same as the Z06 structure, there was slight changes between the Z06 and the convertible one. The corvette was very well studied and the design not only gives it a great look but everything was well studied to improve the car performance, the flared fenders accommodate larger, wider wheels and Michelin tires to give more grip. Larger vents to provide more cooling air to the engine, brakes, transmission and differential for increased track capability. The more aggressive aerodynamic package generates true downforce for more cornering grip and high-speed stability, a carbon fiber aero improves it 4 times better than the standard Z06
The engine is the all-new LT4 6.2L supercharged V-8 engine delivers 625 bhp and 861 Nm, the engine is a very high tech and contain many new technologies such as Direct injection, Active Fuel Management, or cylinder deactivation, and continuously variable valve timing, all this help the Corvette being less thirsty and more efficient transmission,  The supercharged LT4 comes with 7 speed manual transmission with Active rev-matching technology for upshifts and downshifts, or an all-new 8L90 8 speed paddle-shift automatic transmission

The interior benefits from special details first introduced on the Stingray, like a steel-reinforced grab bar on the center console for the passenger and soft-touch materials on the edge of the console, where the driver naturally braces during high-load cornering, It comes with two seating choices: a GT seat, for all-around comfort, and a Competition Sport seat with aggressive side bolstering providing greater support on the track. It got also a flat-bottom steering wheel with a carbon fiber center spoke.
