2012 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 package LSA 6.2-liter V8 compressor engine, which is good enough for the estimated 550 horsepower and massive torque of 550 torque (745 Nm), combined with a six-speed manual transmission with dual-drive, clutch and short throw things like that. GM has a tight lid on the performance numbers for now, but with 550 ponies on display, the collection of the ZL1 Camaro will not be disappointed speed department.
ZL1 sports chassis number of updates, including revised suspension with Magnetic Ride Control and high-performance Brembo brakes with six-piston calipers front and four behind. New electric power steering, and a 20-inch alloy wheels shod in Goodyear supercar F2, are also included ZL1.
"All ZL1 design is directly related to the technology and performance, especially severe, aerodynamics," said Ed Welburn, vice president of Global Design. "Our designers aim" was to feature-oriented design to perform with a beautifully shaped forms, creates an impressive, strong personality. Function, the aesthetics. The purpose of the car and the project. "

Specification Highlights include:

Transmission - the high-performance Tremec TR-6060 six-speed manual is in accordance with LSA engine. It is "MG9" version of transmission with high torque. It uses a dual-flywheel and dual clutch for easy operation and smoothness of motion. A new, short gear lever moved.

Exhaust - ZL1 is equipped with dual-mode exhaust, the sound level and the character to change in response to engine speed. First, the legendary Corvette and tuned to the ZL1 Camaro, dual-mode exhaust make car signature.

Powertrain - It was revised with a stronger axle and rear axle systems, bigger and stronger than cast iron differential housing, heavy ash and stronger limited slip differential. This patented system is designed to ensure that the ZL1's immense power delivered smoothly to the ground.

Chassis - completely redesigned and the suspension tuning, including segment exclusive Magnetic Ride Control. ZL1's magnetic ride system includes a driver-selectable modes (Tour and Sport), adjusted to the desired style. It uses advanced magneto-rheological dampers to produce the highest level of scientific precision, the body optimized for high performance in the daily management and monitoring of the situation under control. This technology appears just a small list of some of the world's best performance cars. Other elements of the new chassis for high-performance cars in support of the border. The rear stabilizer bars are moved outboard drop links to arms control. This bar is effective in suppressing the body's curves, with clear response from the driver's commands.

This area includes fog lamps designed for the brakes to cool. Hood has front-mounted air-machine direct air just above the car. Visually, this central part, in matte black carbon fiber, communicates high performance cars intentions as a visual contrast auto body paint. Functionally, the exhaust air is the key to linking the air close to the body, aerodynamic downforce produced. Carbon fiber center section reduces the weight of the lid. High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps and fog lamps are standard. In the rear contains a diffuser and spoiler, are functional elements that improve aerodynamics.

Wheels and tires - new design 20-inch forged aluminum wheels that are lighter than the 20-inch wheels of the Camaro SS, the new F2 Goodyear supercar context specifically designed for use ZL1.
