2018 CHEVROLET CAMARO ZL1 1LE – Z28 IS BACK! WELL, NOT QUITE
2018 CHEVROLET CAMARO ZL1 1LE – Z28 IS BACK! WELL, NOT QUITE
When the fifth generation of Camaro was introduced in 2009, this is an agreement – you can be satisfied with V6 at the beginning and 300 HP Dear, or you can ask for something spicier, or the SS model that carries a V8 under a 432 hp hood in the best case. If that power is not enough to satisfy you, then there is a ZL1 model with once again V8, but in his case the crank exit 580 hp. But what if you trace weird? Of course almost 600 hp are great things, but lateral G is the thing you want there. Then you can go for the Hard-Core Track-Core-oriented Z28 model introduced in 2013.
Yes, ZL1 gets more than 70 hp, thanks to the supercharger especially, but Z28 will naturally be sucked by a 7.0-liter monster under his hood, and maybe two tenth slower to 60 mph, but choosing the racing track in the world, and it will rip Apart ZL1 Model. Splitters you can see and some underneath you can’t, K & N air filter, carbon ceramic matrix discs Brembo, lack of carpets in some places and other things make this most brutal ever sent.
Today’s generation
The current generation was introduced in 2015 and similar stories. Now you can start with I4, which is actually new, but finally the same, ZL1 supercharged v8 with 650 hp.
Once again everything is bright when the power is worried, but we miss non-compromise monster-oriented tracks until now, because 2018 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1le has just arrived.
So, is this he?
Yes and no. This is not a new Z28, it will be named like that if it’s, but it’s very close, and because we don’t have the right successor it can be considered one per year. Say it regardless of the machine, this can be a new legendary path oriented Camaro. So, what’s with the machine?
Well, 1Le uses the ZL1 supercharged v8 and all 650-hp and 650-lb-lb-ft in a unchanged form, but Chevy doesn’t want to damage purely tracking things that are dedicated so that things are dedicated, in this case, not worth moniker Z28, the possibility of life that a newly sucked model naturally arrives in the near future as a direct successor.
What do you get?
Regardless of the machine, the other is upgraded. Instead of 285 wide tires, you will get the 305s in front and 325 on the back, making this widest tire in the history of Camaro. Instead of magnetorological shocks, which is one of the biggest things about GM, you will end up with a better DSSV DSSV spool valve dampers, let’s mention that Red Bull uses it in F1.
Furthermore to everything, 1le is lighter with 60 pounds and is full of aerodynamic bits. You have a black hood, a bigger grill, under the big black splitter, large carbon fiber wings behind, blinking tail lights, all producing threatening appearances that even really Z28 must respect it and back up. And yes, as a spiritual successor to Z28 only comes with a 6-speed manual.
For the end
2018 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1le is not just ZL1 with a larger wing, but also not enough Z28. That is something of them. All the good things about aerodynamics, suspension, and some other tweaks are executed by the right Z28 way, but the machine is not there, and you will get all the carpets and all sound restrictions, no glass is made thinner, and no one is take AC from you. This might be the only package for the ZL1 model, adding some basic prices greater up to $ 63,000, but if you want Camaro “big men” to track, until the Z28 is sucked and new striped, this is a weapon of your choice. And do we mention the need for 3 seconds less than ZL1 around Milford Proving Grounds GM?
