That Z06 is a beast.

Man it looks awesome in this stealth spec. Awesome photo together with Ducati Panigale V4 SP2.

Who would've thought we'll see the Americans at the very top of the supercar world... and by quite some margin.
Absolute automotive perfection!

I'd like the Corvette Z06 to do well! It should!

What does this mean?

Win, hopefully. Plus a prediction.

Bro just watch the video lol. It's 9 minutes long and the good stuff happens in less than 5 minutes.

 

[Ghost1]

Wow, that Z destroyed the competition.

Well done GM.

That was a slightly bigger gap than I was expecting. But GM did the buisness. So go Z06.

But that Ducati though! Unbelievable.

Z06 is a triumph. Even the convertible will run 10.7’s. Which is what I’ll get. Remarkable achievement by GM.

Really! Congratulations! You'll hear all of that beautiful V8!

I have a C8 convertible right now. I really do love it. This car has all the pros and is just better looking, quicker, and sounds way better.

All the specs and performance are impressive especially for the price, but it's still a really ugly car.

 

[rollo]

I think it looks better in Z06 guise.

I think it looks better in Z06 guise.

Yes it does, but there is still something terrible wrong with the proportions

 

[Jo_Sta7]

I disagree I’ve seen two Z06’s I think they look menacing and great.

 

[rollo]

Yes it does, but there is still something terrible wrong with the proportions

I have not seen one yet IRL, just the photo's. I will chime-in with a few comments when I eventually see one. One thing seems pretty clear though, it's quite an achievement.

Corvette E-Ray Spotted Totally Undisguised
This is our best look yet at the first electrified Corvette.

BY BRIAN SILVESTRO
DEC 21, 2022

"What looks to be a seemingly undisguised Corvette E-Ray prototype was caught driving on the road by our spy photographers, giving us our first opportunity to see the E-Ray's design outside of a digitally rendered configurator tool. As we saw with the leak earlier in December, it seems the E-Ray will get a body-c0lor version of the Z06's front fascia, along with the Z06's wider body.

It's out back where things get even more interesting. Instead of the center-mount exhaust design from the Z06, it seems the E-Ray will get the corner-mounted exhaust tips from the base Stingray, adding fuel to the rumor the E-Ray will use the push-rod LT2 engine out of the base Stingray rather than the 5.5-liter flat-plane-crank V-8 found in the Z06. Our spy photographers mentioned the lack of the Z06's V-8 wail when taking these photos, all but confirming the theory.

It's not clear at this time whether the electric motor (or motors) will power the front wheels or help the V-8 power the rear wheels, or both. We suspect the car will have at least one motor up front, going by a teaser video GM released back in April of the car testing on snow.

The E-Ray is expected to take the place of the Grand Sport in the Corvette's lineup, according to rumors dating all the way back to 2020. According to the configurator tool (before it was taken down), the E-Ray will become available in summer 2023. Which means we won't have to wait very long to find out more."

Very nicely detailed. V8 plus electric motor(s) the power will take a significant leap.

"

• An electrified powertrain, consisting of the atmospheric 6.2L V8 LT2 gasoline engine good for 490 horsepower that powers the 2020 Corvette Stingray mated to an electric drive unit located in the front cargo area plus four 1.94 kWh batteries located in the middle of the car. Peak output of the hybrid system is expected to be around 85 kW (115 horsepower) and 111 pound-feet of torque, with some rumors pointing to the electric motor being able to spin to 16,000 RPM. Total system power is expected to be in the vicinity of 600 horsepower, focused on improving performance rather than on efficiency."
