Chevrolet has unveiled its most powerful car at the New York Auto Show. Following the launch of the new Camaro last year, car enthusiasts have eagerly awaited the ZL1 models. Finally, the time has come for Chevrolet to launch the Camaro ZL1 coupe and convertible at the New York Auto Show.

Technical Specifications

In terms of performance, both models are equipped with a 6.2L V8 engine found in the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 and the Cadillac CTS-V. This powerful engine delivers 640 horsepower and 640 lb-ft of torque. It’s worth noting that the Camaro ZL1 is built by Chevrolet itself, unlike other cars that are modified by aftermarket companies like Hennessey.

The new ZL1 boasts an increase of 60 horsepower, while torque is slightly reduced by 200 lb-ft. It features a 10-speed automatic transmission developed in conjunction with the Ford F-150 Raptor, along with an optional 6-speed manual for traditional driving enthusiasts.
