5 Thrilling Features of the 2025 Corvette Z06
Monstrously Powerful V8
Take a peek at the Corvette Z06’s engine bay, and you’ll find an LT6 5.5L naturally aspirated V8 that redlines at a screaming 8,600 RPM. It is the most powerful naturally aspirated engine ever found in a stock car, delivering a ground-pounding 670 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. The LT6 V8 comes with a dry-sump oil system that keeps vital components lubricated during high-G-force maneuvers.

Dual-Clutch Transmission
An 8-speed dual-clutch transmission manages the LT6 V8’s power delivery, providing lightning-fast shifts on the track. Dual-clutch transmissions connect odd and even gears to two separate clutches, so the next gear is always pre-selected. This eliminates traction interruptions when shifting, which in turn lowers your lap times. The dual-clutch transmission featured in the Corvette Z06 also offers a double paddle declutch feature, enabling drivers to disengage the clutch without footwork.
Exceptional Maneuverability
Another thrilling feature of the Corvette Z06 is its outstanding maneuverability, which enables it to compete with the best-handling European sports cars, including the Porsche 911. The combination of a mid-engine layout and a lightweight body greatly enhances the Z06’s stability, making steering predictable and reducing body roll. The supercar also features a performance suspension with Magnetic Selective Ride Control, which provides precise adaptive damping for consistent traction across all surfaces.
Breathtaking Performance
The Z06’s monstrously powerful V8, dual-clutch transmission, and dreamlike handling make it a universally feared opponent on the track. Transferring all 670 horsepower to the pavement for an explosive start, the supercar rockets to 60 mph in only 2.6 seconds. On the racetrack, it crosses the quarter-mile mark in 10.6 seconds at a blistering speed of 131 mph. You can record your 0-to-60 mph time, top speed, and other performance metrics using the available performance data and video recorder.
Aggressive, Functional Styling
The Z06 sports an aggressive look, featuring a sculpted body, bold stance, and angular headlights. Massive side air intakes, which are a signature design element of the C8 Corvette, and a wide, bumper-mounted grille help cool the mid-mounted engine. The Z06 rides on 20-inch front and 21-inch rear wheels, which gives it an aggressive rake stance and enhances downforce generation. Other design elements that improve the supercar’s aerodynamic efficiency include a front splitter and a high-wing rear spoiler.
