THE LOOK OF A LEGEND

zl1 1-1 

ZL1: LEGENDARY PERFORMANCE  

ZL1 traces its strong presence back to the legendary 1969 production ZL1 models. Today’s ZL1 lives up to that iconic name as the most technologically advanced Camaro. Tested on some of the most rigorous tracks around the world, including world-renowned N"urburgring, where it ran a 7:41.27 lap.
Built to be track capable, one tap of the accelerator will immediately reveal why it’s like nothing you've ever driven before. You’ll feel the intensity of an all-aluminum 6.2L supercharged engine that delivers 580 horsepower and 556 lb.-ft. of torque.
But the ZL1 doesn't just boast unbridled power. That’s just half of the equation. There’s also Magnetic Ride Control™, world-class braking and a 4-wheel independent suspension. Influenced by the Corvette, Performance Traction Management lets you choose from five performance settings that adjust for ambient and track conditions, driver experience and vehicle familiarity.
They’re all performance refinements you can’t get on a Mustang Shelby GT 500 and another reason why you’ll be hard-pressed to find a production car that can match the Camaro ZL1.

POWER AND PRECISION

Know what you’re getting into

Camaro ZL1 has a history to respect and build upon. That’s why the 2013 namesake is designed so everything works together, to give you not just power, but precision and control.
The fuel system has added fuel pickups to maximize the amount of fuel available even under high g-force cornering.

The dual-mode exhaust enables peak performance at high engine speeds and has been engineered to create an aggressive growl while idling without drowning out the tunes when you’re cruising at a steady speed — the drawback of some aftermarket performance exhausts.
This is the kind of fine-tuned vehicle that engineers dream about designing and enthusiasts dream about driving. It’s so track capable you might just want to start looking for a sponsor.

EXCEPTIONAL PERFORMANCE, FROM STRIP TO STREET

…from track to street

Feel the rush of an engine that goes from 0 to 60 in 3.9 seconds with an available Hydra-Matic® 6L90 automatic transmission. Boasts power you can feel, topping out at 184 mph with the available automatic, and covers a quarter-mile of pavement in a mere 12 seconds.
One of the reasons you’ll get there that fast is the standard Performance Traction Management. It features launch control that automatically modulates engine torque for the best possible acceleration without excessive wheel spin.
The 580-horsepower 6.2-liter supercharged V8 with 556 lb.-ft. of torque on the Hydra-Matic 6L90 automatic transmission. This aluminum-block engine is based on the legendary GM small block V8 architecture and features an inter-cooled supercharger system and premium heat-resistant aluminum alloy cylinder heads.

2014-chevrolet-camaro-zl1-coupe-model-overview-performance-cnt-well-1-1051x521-04

Supercharge your ride

Camaro ZL1 offers a uniquely designed sixth-generation inter-cooled 1.9-liter Eaton® supercharger. It’s what gives ZL1 additional thrust and force and it’s a big component of the driving exhilaration you’ll feel when you put ZL1 through its paces. The 4-lobed supercharger enables a broad range of power through the rpm band, giving the engine great low-end torque and excellent horsepower at the upper rpm range where a supercharger generally loses its effectiveness.

Stays cool when the action heats up

Unlike many of its competitors, ZL1 comes fully equipped with factory-integrated auxiliary fluid coolers that would otherwise cost thousands of dollars to install, including a liquid-to-liquid engine cooler typically found on high-end sports cars.
The differential cooler is a truly unique design. This innovative system pumps over-cooled transmission fluid differential temperature by over 100 degrees. That helps maintain cool, stable performance even during the most aggressive racetrack sessions.to a heat exchanger inside the housing that can drop the differential temperature by over 100 degrees. That helps maintain cool, stable performance even during the most aggressive racetrack sessions.

Automatic transmission

The optional automatic transmission is no afterthought — it’s a fully integrated powertrain offering that is completely unique to the segment. The Hydra-Matic® 6L90 is built to handle the impressive torque and power while steering paddle shifting helps make shifts quick and convenient. The upshift algorithm in TAPshift® mode reduces delay, allowing for seamless tap downshifts and upshifts. The algorithm has been designed to recognize aggressive throttle movement to hold lower gears for extreme driving situations.

ZL1-Tuned Performance Suspension System with Gen 3 Magnetic Ride Control™

ZL1 is remarkably comfortable on the street — and capable on the track — thanks to a series of applications and refinements to the chassis system, including the latest generation of Magnetic Ride Control technology. The bushings, mounts, dampers and tires have all been tuned for this vehicle’s high-performance dynamics. Springs lower the vehicle to reduce its center of gravity for improved braking and handling. Both the front and rear stabilizer bars have been designed for a dramatic decrease in roll and precisely tuned for perfect handling balance.

Power to the pavement

From the raceway to the driveway, ZL1 has more control on more surfaces. ZL1 was the first car for sale in North America featuring the latest generation of Magnetic Ride Control™–you’re not going to find that in many cars. ZL1 has three distinct damper calibrations: Tour, Sport and Track. These shocks employ magnetorheological fluid for damping levels adjusts up to 1,000 times per second, making the system exceptionally responsive and providing increased wheel control on even the roughest road or the most challenging track by dramatically reducing heave, pitch and roll.

Braking and Handling That Keeps You in Control

You can have the most powerful, supercharged engine in the world, but if you don’t have the technology to support it, what do you get? A whole lot of power you can’t control.
That’s why Camaro ZL1 Coupe boasts a number of features that were designed for a car ready to hit the track. Influenced by the Corvette ZR1, Performance Traction Management gives you five performance settings that adjust to track conditions, driver experience and vehicle familiarity. To balance out your ride, the weight distribution is an exceptional 52% to 48% front to back.
And when you need to slow down as fast as you sped up? You’ll feel confident knowing that the Brembo® brakes help provide exceptional stopping distances.

When rubber beats the road

ZL1 offers two 20” wheel options. Both have 20” x 10” front and 20” x 11” rear sizes and are forged-aluminum, optimized for high strength and low mass. The standard wheel is a black 10-spoke — or opt for the polished 5-spoke.
The Goodyear® Eagle® F1 Supercar® G:2 summer-only tires have been developed and optimized specifically for ZL1 to yield outstanding handling while maintaining requisite street tire performance for wet handling, tread wear, noise, mass and rolling resistance. These tires are also 11 lbs. lighter per car than the tires on Camaro SS.

The evolution of Active Handling

For ZL1, the goal was to create handling and control not just for street use, but to enhance acceleration performance under all racetrack conditions. The resulting Performance Traction Management is an advanced system that integrates the Magnetic Ride Control™, Launch Control, Traction Control and Active Handling systems. The electromechanically powered steering system in ZL1 is specifically engineered for lower inertia and friction, resulting in a direct steering feel and response.

World-class braking

ZL1 is equipped with a Brembo® brake system with massive 14.6" front rotors. It is considered world-class in the high-performance luxury vehicle niche. The unique two-piece design provides excellent fade resistance and is engineered to stand up to repeated high-speed stops. Huge 6-piston monoblock calipers are asymmetrically laid out in the front, with four pistons in the rear. Brake cooling ducts route air from the fascia to the rotor and caliper.

Not to be ignored

The unmistakable air extractor is engineered from carbon-fiber composites to achieve the highest stiffness and strength possible with the lowest mass. The air extractor pulls air through the lower grille and out through the hood, cooling the engine, increasing efficiency and reducing lift in the process.
The prominent feature of the front fascia is the large lower splitter, which reduces front lift significantly and forces air through the lower grille opening. Single-piece rockers with extensions are aero-designed and help keep the vehicle down to balance power. The rear diffuser extends to the rear wheel openings and incorporates metal heat shields to insulate the fascia from the hot exhaust tips.

Comfort tailored to performance

It’s everything you would expect from high- performance excellence. The interior even outperforms. Sueded microfiber inserts with red accent stitching and ZL1 logos are embroidered on the front-seat head restraints. Every detail exudes luxurious craftsmanship — befitting the legendary Camaro ZL1 name.

High-performance steering

The flat-bottom steering wheel, designed for use in open race cars, provides increased leg room for heel/toe shifting and makes entrance and exit easier. The wheel has a smaller diameter than the standard Camaro steering wheel, and the rim section has been thickened and tuned to give the driver a more connected feel, which can be improved even further with the available sueded microfiber wrap.

Stay connected and entertained

ZL1 comes with all the technology you expect from a top-of-the-line Camaro. Amenities like the standard rear vision camera displayed on the 7-inch diagonal color touch-screen. Choose the OnStar® Directions & Connections® Plan with Turn-by-Turn Navigation, standard for the first six months, or the available navigation radio. Sound good? Wait until you hear the premium Boston Acoustics® sound system with a one-year trial subscription to SiriusXM Satellite Radio.

Rear Vision Camera

See more of what’s going on behind you with a special camera specifically produced to aid you in backing up. It works like an extra set of eyes. When the vehicle is positioned into reverse, the 7-inch color screen display presents a video image from the rear vision camera, showing objects behind the vehicle.

USB Port

Conveniently access music stored on your USB drive or compatible mobile devices. Using the steering wheel-mounted audio controls or the 7-inch diagonal touch-screen makes it easy to retrieve and navigate your music library, so you can stay focused on the road ahead.

CHEVROLET MYLINK

Stay on top of it all

Catch up with friends, entertainment and the latest information. Available Chevrolet MyLink with 7-inch color touch-screen allows you to easily connect your smartphone with standard Bluetooth Wireless Technology and take control of a wide range of top-notch technology right at your fingertips. Through voice commands or touch controls, tune into Pandora Internet Radio or Stitcher SmartRadio or listen to commercial-free programs through  SiriusXM Satellite Radio standard for 12 months ZL1 models.

First with Five in Every Category

The 2014 Chevrolet Camaro Coupe has received the highest possible Overall Vehicle Score for safety –five-stars – and has received five star scores in every individual safety rating segment of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s New Car Assessment Program.

Before

Anti-lock brakes and the StabiliTrak® Electronic Stability Control System with Traction Control help keep you in control during emergency maneuvers and come standard on every Camaro ZL1. The StabiliTrak control module compares your steering input with the vehicle’s actual response and, if necessary, makes the corrections to help keep you on track.

During

In the event of a collision, six standard air bags help protect heads, chests and knees. And the ultra-high-strength steel safety cage helps keep everyone in the vehicle protected.

After

With OnStar Automatic Crash Response, standard for the first six months on all Camaro models, you can be automatically connected to emergency assistance if a crash occurs — whether or not the air bags deploy.

Weekly Recap: Bentley Bentayga leads luxury SUV charge at Frankfurt

Sat, Sep 12 2015

The Bentley Bentayga is launching a new era of ultra high-end sport utility vehicles that will see luxury makers vie for the world's richest and most exclusive customers. The Bentayga is Bentley's first SUV, and it will formally debut next week at the Frankfurt Motor Show. It's loaded with Bentley's best technology and features, led by a 600-horsepower W12 engine. The mission is simple: stop giving up sales to other companies by not having an SUV in its portfolio. "It creates an entirely new category of ultra-luxury SUV, where there are currently few rivals," IHS Automotive analyst Ian Fletcher said in a report. But Bentley and the Bentayga will soon face stiff competition. Archrival Rolls-Royce will produce its own crossover to be built in England, though timing is unclear. Lamborghini has approved plans for a ute that will be assembled in Italy and launch in 2018. Even the sportier British brands are getting into the market. Aston Martin will make a crossover version of the DBX concept shown earlier this year in Geneva, and Jaguar is launching the F-Pace crossover, which will debut in Frankfurt. These new entries will invigorate a segment that's comprised of the Mercedes G63 AMG and the Land Rover Range Rover SV Autobiography, and Bentley is poised to grab a large share of it, Fletcher noted. IHS forecasts Bentayga sales could hit 3,000 units per year in 2017 and 2018, pushing total Bentley sales to more than 10,000 in the next few years. The vehicle will also get plug-in hybrid and diesel variants to widen its reach. The Bentayga is a sales grab, for sure, but Bentley took care to ensure the SUV remained true to the brand. It's laden with the top-shelf wood, leather, and metal, and it comes standard with an expansive panoramic glass roof. It also has intelligent features like electronic night vision and an optional responsive off-road system that can be configured to adapt to eight different settings. It's a different kind of Bentley, but it's a harbinger of things to come for the world's richest luxury makers. Other News & Notes Toyota debuts next-gen Prius Toyota revealed the next-generation of its iconic fuel-sipping hybrid, the 2016 Prius, at an event in Las Vegas. The car promises 10-percent gains in fuel efficiency, though actual figures – and even powertrain specifics – were not revealed. We estimate that could mean about 56 miles per gallon in city driving and 53 on the highway.

Cadillac CT6 production ceases January 2020 as part of D-Ham layoffs

Fri, Dec 6 2019

General Motors filed paperwork under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act with Michigan's Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity this week, detailing events to come at the automaker's Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Starting February 28, 814 salaried and hourly workers at D-Ham, as its called, will be laid off. The 753 workers represented by the UAW will begin receiving offers in January to relocate to facilities in Michigan and Ohio, or buyout offers. As the 4-million-square-foot plant winds down through April 3 to a skeleton crew, the Cadillac CT6 ceases production in January 2020, and the last Chevrolet Impala comes off the line on February 28. The loss of the CT6 represents the end of Cadillac's latest brief, and highly regarded, adventure into flagship sedans. It might also mean the end of the 4.2-liter Blackwing twin-turbo V8 engine, at least for the moment. Both casualties are calamities. The death of the Impala closes the door on a nameplate in production for 52 years since 1957, having started off as a top-tier trim for the 1958 Bel Air known as the Bel Air Impala, once advertised with the line, "Lets you know you're the boss." As part of the new four-year labor agreement with the UAW, GM is keeping D-Ham open to build a new line of battery-electric vehicles, ultimately investing $3 billion and tripling employment to 2,225 workers when fully operational. The agreement described the coming EV as a "van" that would commence production in late 2021, but various reports say what's actually coming is a range of premium EVs in pickup and SUV bodystyles under the program codename BT1. The easy predictions put an electric GMC Sierra and Cadillac Escalade among the EV fold, but not until 2023, according to auto industry forecaster LMC Automotive. Before that, LMC claims an electric van will debut in late 2021, along with a battery-powered rebirth of the Hummer brand in pickup and SUV forms, also in late 2021. 

How long will the 'golden age' of performance last?

Sat, Mar 26 2016

High-powered sports and luxury cars were everywhere at the New York Auto Show, prompting the obvious question for enthusiasts: How long will this golden age of performance last? Industry leaders have some time before regulations elevate the Corporate Average Fuel Economy level in 2025. Even then, they expect cars rippling with power to survive in some form. "Is it the end of an era," I don't think so," said Ola Kallenius, Daimler AG board member for Mercedes-Benz cars marketing and sales. "That performance element of individual mobility I don't think will ever go away." Kallenius, who oversaw the company's AMG division from 2010-2013, expects it to continue to grow. Last year, AMG sold a record 68,875 units around the world, an increase of 44.6 percent over 2014, with strong growth in the US, China, and Germany. Still, there's always the potential for gas to spike, and pending fuel economy regulations are looming. That could lead AMG to add electrification to its products, Kallenius said, pointing to the electric SLS as a test case. Chevy is also thinking ahead, said Al Oppenheiser, chief engineer of the Camaro. He wouldn't bite when asked about electrification for the Camaro (he did say "never say never"), but admitted in 2025 "it's going to be pretty tough to sell V8s." For now, things are rosy for muscle cars, and Chevy confidently showcased the 640-hp Camaro ZL1 in coupe and convertible form in New York. "I think that this is truly the golden age of performance," Oppenheiser said. It's hard to disagree. News & Analysis News: The 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF was a show-stopper in New York. Analysis: There was a palpable energy when this RF — for Retractable Fastback — was revealed the night before the show at a trendy off-site venue near the Hudson River. Even as a parade of SUVs and flashy luxury cars rolled out the rest of the week, the Miata remained a hot topic. The Retractable Fastback is really a clever targa top, with part of the roof stowing behind the seats, adding about 100 pounds compared to the standard convertible. It makes the car more practical and arguably more attractive. The RF continues Mazda's tradition of selling the Miata with a hardtop variant. The first and second generations offered a detachable one, and a power retractable hardtop (a $1,700 option) was available on third-gen models. Judging by its reception in New York, the RF could prove to be even more popular than its predecessors.
