Designing and engineering something as complex as the new Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is not an easy task. Considering its C6 Z06 predecessor was already an impressive track-focused vehicle to begin with, the C7 Z06 team knew they had to go above and beyond expectations. Heck, even the ZR1 would have to be put to shame if Chevy wanted to build a truly world-class high-performance machine that could compete with the Porsche 911 GT3.

Just as its having its Detroit debut, the people behind the supercharged 6.2-liter V8 beast are now revealing its secrets. With 625 horsepower on tap, the 2015 Z06 is officially the fastest Corvette ever made, and will surely be considered to be an instant one-of-a-kind classic.
