The 2015 Corvette Z06






Corvette is a triumph of design and engineering. But Chevrolet didn’t stop there. With advanced technologies, a race-proven bloodline and a supercharged engine, the all-new 2015 Z06 is a world-class supercar.

At the intersection of Le Mans and the Autobahn sits the best of American automotive design and engineering — the all-new 2015 Corvette Z06. This world-class supercar is the closest link yet between Corvettes built for racing and the road. Z06 is engineered to be lightweight and rigid with an aluminum space frame, carbon-fiber hood and removable carbon-fiber roof panel. It was also designed to be powerful, with a supercharged 6.2L aluminum V8 engine delivering 650 horsepower and 650 lb.-ft. of torque.

The 2015 Corvette Z06 is the industry’s only supercar to achieve 650 horsepower and offer a choice of two transmissions – a 7-speed manual or an all-new 8-speed paddle-shift automatic – as well as a choice between coupe and convertible. The driver-centric Z06 elevates the experience even further with technologies like a Driver Mode Selector, which allows for customization of vehicle performance dynamics with the turn of a knob. And Corvette owners can relive their drives on or off the track with the available industry-exclusive Performance Data Recorder, which records high-definition video with telemetry overlays on playback.

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT®
















The 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT® 392 achieves new levels of craftsmanship, technology and heart-pounding performance. Unleash the highest horsepower, naturally aspirated HEMI®engine in the SRT lineup. Ever.
The heart of the 2015 Challenger SRT® 392 is the 6.4-liter HEMI® engine now boasting 485 hp and 475 lb.-ft. of torque, ideal for those times you want to do a little soul-searching - quickly. Choose from a robust new TorqueFlite® eight-speed automatic transmission featuring rev-matching on downshifts, or bang your own gears with a Viper-like Tremec six-speed manual gearbox with a beefed-up clutch. It’s good for the soul, man.
The functional, performance-tuned exterior retains the Challenger design heritage with not-so-subtle air-gulping hood inlet, functional front splitter, rear spoiler and dual chrome exhaust outlets. This Challenger SRT® 392 spent 35 percent more time in the wind tunnel to maximize aerodynamics and create a vision of awesome.
Mission Critical
Inside the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT® 392 is an amazing blend of world-class materials, race-inspired technology and time-honored design influences that wrap around you like a fighter pilot, on a mission to push the envelope to a new extreme. The look and feel carries the essence of 1971 innocence, with the delivery of 2015 artistry.
Bigger and Better
When it comes to performance brake rotors and calipers, size invariably matters. The standard SRT Track Pack brake package on the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT® 392 features massive Brembo® 15.4-inch two-piece slotted and vented front rotors paired with beefy Brembo six-piston calipers and 13.8-inch rotors in the rear. The two-piece front rotors quickly dissipate heat under extreme use, while the aluminum hat reduces unsprung weight.
