The ZL1 Camaro is a complete high performance car, not just a more powerful Camaro, General Motors said in a statement recent press. THE expected Chevrolet car better in every way imaginable. Equipped with high-throughput technologies, highlighting Magnetic Ride Control, and advanced materials - including an insert vented hood carbon fiber. Extensive aerodynamic development designed for performance driving
Development being launched.
Motivated by a supercharged V-8 engine producing an estimated 550 horsepower (410 kW), the Camaro ZL1 Camaro will be the fastest ever offered by Chevrolet. And more than power, the ZL1 features technologically advanced and highly developed systems of chassis and suspension help to provide a balanced handling, ground prepared and stopping power to complement its high-output engine. ZL1 rigorous development is ongoing.
"ZL1 Camaro is on the high-tech performance and design, and is a model car that nobody has brought this segment before," said Rick Scheidt, vice president of marketing for Chevrolet. "It is the most technically advanced Camaro ever, so we chose a name in the most exclusive elite Camaro history."
The name is derived from motor racing completely of aluminum with the same name, which was developed in late 1960 and installed in a handful of regular production of 1969 Camaro. Only 69 were built with the engine, but who have achieved mythical status among fans as representing the pinnacle in performance Camaro - until now. The ZL1 2012 model is designed to be a great step forward for the Camaro, bringing a new level of performance capability for segment.
Specifications:
Air - High performance manual Tremec TR-6060 six-speed motor combined with the LSA. It is the "MG9" version of transmission, with a higher torque capacity. Used with a dual flywheel mass and the twin-disc clutch for easy operation and smoothness of change. A new, shorter-throw shifter operates the gearshift.
De escape - ZL1 is equipped with a dual-mode exhaust system, which alters the sound level and character in response to engine speed. First used time at the legendary Corvette, specifically tuned for ZL1 Camaro, dual mode exhaust give the car a distinctive sound.
Train - is revised with a stronger driveshaft and rear axle system with a bigger and stronger iron foundry support differential, stronger axles and limited slip differential, heavy duty. This patent-pending system is designed to ensure that ZL1 of tremendous power is delivered smoothly to the floor.
Suspension - suspension tuning functions completely revised and the inclusion of Magnetic Ride Control segment exclusive. ZL1 magnetic ride system includes driver-selectable modes (Tour and Sport) as to the preferred style of driving. It uses advanced science to produce magneto-rheological shock buffer with the highest level of accuracy, allowing control of the body optimized for excellent performance in everyday driving, and trail situations. This technology only appears in a small list of some of the cars in the world the best results. Other elements of the chassis has been redesigned to support the limits of high performance car. stabilizer bars have links drop outdoor reset control arms. This makes the bar more effective in controlling body roll in corners, with a crisp response to driver input.
brakes and steering - ZL1 Camaro offers an advanced braking track capacity, developed in collaboration with experts from Brembo. The large 14.6-inch (370 mm) two-piece front rotors with six-piston calipers, the 14.4-inch (365 mm) rear rotors with four-piston calipers. ZL1 marks the entry of a new electric power steering system for Camaro. It is being developed to ensure precise control and feedback driver, with greater variability of the efforts for high-performance driving.
Exterior - ZL1 firm is the front fascia and redesigned aluminum hood with a high carbon fiber insert. The fascia includes a front splitter and new vertical fog lights. The fog lamp area includes air intakes for brake cooling. The hood features front-mounted exhaust fans that direct air precisely on the car. Visually, this middle section, in glossy black carbon fiber, communicates the intent of the high performance cars as a visual contrast with the exterior color car. Functionally, the exhaust fan is a key element in connecting the air flow around the body, creating downforce. Carbon fiber center section reduces the mass of the bell. high intensity discharge (HID) headlamps and fog lamps as standard. The rear of the car includes a diffuser and a wing, also the functional elements that improve the aerodynamics of the car.
wheels and tires - New design, 20-inch forged aluminum wheels that are lighter than 20-inch tires used on the Camaro SS, new bonds are used F2 Goodyear Supercar developed specifically for ZL1.
Interior - ZL1 is adapted for high-performance driving. The front seats with suede microfiber inserts. Other improvements include a newly designed steering wheel, alloy pedals, Head-Up Display with unique performance readings and the "four-pack" system auxiliary indicator with a reading pulse.
production details
All exterior colors are offered with the Camaro ZL1, but black is the only interior color. The unique exterior is complemented with a black center section on the hood. Inside, the Camaro ZL1 has warmed leather seats with microfibre inserts and embroidered logos ZL1 the front headrests. microfiber cloth is repeated as an accent on the instrument panel, which adds a richer look inside. The ZL1 include the same content as the current 2SS package and include the following new or unique:
six-way power driver and passenger seats unique instrument panel and door panel inserts, and the threshold ZL1 logo Flyer plates with audio controls with wireless Bluetooth capability and USB port PDIM Boston Acoustics audio system Rear parking assistant Rear Camera System (displayed on the inside rearview mirror). The engineers have already driven prototypes Camaro ZL1 widely in demanding road courses in the U.S. and Germany, with the final test being completed through the balance of 2011.
is a good idea, however, for the Shelby Mustang GT drivers to keep a sharp eye on your rearview mirror because something - something that has not been there for a long time - you win them. It is a Chevrolet Camaro and read "ZL1" on the grill.
even wilder.
