When the Z06
rejoined the Corvette lineup in 2015 as the most capable model in the car’s
long, storied history, it also joined an elite fraternity of the world’s most
capable supercars. It returns for 2016, offering more choices for
personalization to complement its world-class levels of performance – including
an all-new C7.R Edition.
The C7.R Edition pays tribute to the Corvette Racing C7.R racecars. It’s
offered in Corvette Racing’s signature yellow livery – or black – with
coordinated exterior and interior accents. Only 500 will be built, all with the
Z07 Performance Package with carbon ceramic brakes, and a specially serialized
vehicle identification number.
Additionally,
three all-new color-themed design packages – Twilight Blue, Spice Red and Jet
Black Suede – offer custom-tailored appearances that elevate the Z06’s presence
on the street or track, while features such as an available front parking
camera and power-cinching latch for the coupe’s hatchback or convertible’s
trunk enhance convenience – and add an extra measure protection.

The Corvette Z06’s capability is rooted in its LT4 supercharged 6.2L V-8
engine, which is SAE-certified at 650 horsepower (485 kW) at 6,400 rpm and 650
lb-ft of torque (881 Nm) at 3,600 rpm – making it the most powerful production
car ever from General Motors and one of the most powerful production cars
available in the United States.
With the available Z07 package, its capability enables:
0-60 mph acceleration in 2.95
seconds with the eight-speed automatic and 3.2 seconds with the seven-speed
manual transmission
Quarter-mile times of
10.95 seconds at 127 mph with the eight-speed and 11.2 seconds at 127 mph with
the seven-speed transmission
Lateral acceleration of
1.2 g
60-0 mph braking in only
99.6 feet – the best of any production car tested by General Motors.
The Z07 package adds adjustable front and rear aero components for true
aerodynamic downforce, Michelin Pilot Super Sport Cup tires for enhanced grip,
and Brembo carbon ceramic-matrix brake rotors that improve braking performance
and contribute to greater handling through reduced un-sprung weight.
The 2016 Corvette Z06
is offered in coupe and convertible models, in 1LZ, 2LZ and 3LZ trims.

MyLink enhancement
details
Advanced phone integration
technology in the 2016 Corvette Stingray provides owners a simple and intuitive
way to use their compatible smartphone in their vehicle. It integrates certain
phone functions onto the 8-inch-diagonal color touchscreen, allowing users to
call up music, navigation apps and more.
Once the phone is plugged in to
the MyLink USB port, users call up music (saved or streaming), travel/map apps
and other apps using the MyLink touchscreen, leaving the phone safely stowed –
and avoiding the need for the driver to take his or her eyes off the road.
Using voice commands built into a smartphone, drivers can also dictate and hear
text messages hands-free.
A projection icon on the MyLink screen is visible
when a phone is not connected. The icon changes to indicate a specific
technology brand name when a phone is connected. The user can enter advanced
phone integration mode and exit to other MyLink settings and menus, while
continuing to stream music or audible navigation directions from a compatible
phone.
Complementing MyLink to enhance connectivity is OnStar
with 4G LTE and standard built-in Wi-Fi hotspot. It provides a mobile hub for drivers and passengers to stay
connected. The hotspot is on whenever the vehicle is on.
Designed for
downforce
The performance targets of the Z06 also posed a challenge for the design
team, which had to create a striking design that also contributed to increased
capabilities. The design changes began not with
the exterior panels, but the tires.
To
deliver the levels of grip needed for the Z06’s performance targets, the car is
fitted with larger Michelin tires (Pilot Super Sport tires for the Z06; Sport
Cup 2 tires with the Z07 package). The P285/30ZR19 front tires are 1.5 inches
wider than the tires on the Stingray, while the 335/25ZR20 rear tires are two
inches wider.
And
to cover the wider tire tread, the fenders of the Z06 were extended by 2.2
inches (56 mm) at the front, and 3.15 inches (80 mm) at the rear. These
extensions give the Corvette Z06 a wider, lower appearance further emphasized
by a unique rear fascia. It incorporates the same taillamp assemblies as the
Stingray, but on the Z06 the taillamps are pushed approximately three inches
farther apart, toward the edges of the body.
The
tires are mounted on lightweight, spin-cast aluminum wheels that are also wider
than the Stingray (19 x 10 inches in front and 20 x 12 inches in the rear). Their open, ultralight design showcases the
massive Brembo brakes, which are part of the design aesthetic:
The Z06 features
two-piece steel rotors, measuring 14.6 x 1.3-inch (371 x 33 mm) front and 14.4
x 1-inch (365 x 25 mm) rear, with aluminum six-piston and four-piston fixed
calipers, respectively
The Z07 package adds
larger, 15.5 x 1.4-inch (394 x 36 mm) front and 15.3 x 1.3-inch (388 x 33 mm)
carbon ceramic-matrix brake rotors for consistent performance lap after lap,
and collectively save 23 pounds over the standard Z06 rotors.
To
harness the cornering and braking grip afforded by the larger tires and brakes,
the exterior of the Corvette Z06 is tailored to produce aerodynamic downforce
that presses the tires to the ground at high speeds.
The Z06 offers three increasing levels of aerodynamic downforce:
The standard Z06 features
a front splitter, spats around the front wheel openings, a unique carbon-fiber
hood with a larger vent, and a rear spoiler
An available carbon-fiber
aero package – in either black or a visible carbon-fiber finish – adds a carbon
fiber front splitter with aviation-style winglets, carbon fiber rocker panels,
and a larger rear spoiler with a fixed wickerbill, which combine to create true
aerodynamic downforce
The available Z07 package add
larger winglets to the front splitter, along with an adjustable, see-through
center section on the rear spoiler for track use. With this package, the
Corvette Z06 delivers the most aerodynamic downforce of any production car GM
has tested.
The
exterior design also reflects the increased cooling required for the new
Corvette Z06. For example, the mesh pattern on the front fascia was
painstakingly designed to deliver the most possible airflow to the
supercharger’s intercooler heat exchanger, so much so that the mesh grill
directs more air into the engine bay than if the grille was removed.
The
unique grille also features dedicated brake-cooling intakes and wider grille
outlets on the bottom serve as air diffusers. The grille is complemented with a
larger hood vent, which vents hot air from the engine compartment and
contributes to downforce by allowing air driven through the grille to exit
through the hood rather than being forced under the car, which could create
lift.
Additional
cooling elements include larger front fender vents and unique air blades over
the inlets on the rear fenders of Coupe models, which force about 50 percent
more air into the cooling ducts for the transmission and differential coolers
than those on the Stingray. Convertible models feature under-body inlets. To
cope with the additional airflow, Z06 Coupe and Convertible also have larger rear-fascia
openings than the Stingray.
Standard
front and rear brake-cooling ducts, including Z06-signature rear ducts
integrated in front of the rear fender openings, are also part of the
functional design changes over Stingray models.
Ten exterior colors
are offered: Laguna Blue Tintcoat, Daytona Sunrise Orange Metallic, Corvette
Racing Yellow Tintcoat, Arctic White, Blade Silver Metallic, Black, Shark Gray
Metallic, Long Beach Red Metallic Tintcoat, Torch Red and Night Race Blue
Metallic.
Convertible
considerations
The
seventh-generation Corvette Z06’s aluminum structure is 20 percent stiffer than
the previous, fixed-roof Z06. As there are no structural reinforcements needed
for the Z06 Convertible, it has a nearly identical curb weight as the Z06 Coupe.
They also share the same chassis tuning, powertrain output, driver technologies
and equipment options – including the track-focused Z07 Performance Package.
Like the structure, there are only minor design changes from the Z06 Coupe
to Convertible. The convertible features a fully electronic
top that can be lowered remotely using the car’s key fob. The top can also be
opened or closed on the go, at speeds of up to 30 mph (50 km/h).
With the top up, the Z06 Convertible is designed
for a refined driving experience. A thick fabric top – offered in four colors –
with sound-absorbing padding and a glass rear window contribute to a quiet
cabin and premium appearance.
With the top down, the Corvette’s signature profile
is further accentuated. Behind the seat backs, dual Carbon Flash-painted or
available carbon fiber accent panels enhance the character lines of the tonneau
cover. Corvette Stingray’s signature “waterfall” design originates in the
valley between the nacelles, bringing the exterior color into the interior.
The power-operated tonneau cover necessitated moving the air intakes for
the differential and transmission coolers, from the rear quarter panels on the
Z06 Coupe to the underbody of the Z06 Convertible. Otherwise, both models share
the same, performance-driven aesthetic.
Interior features
Inside,
the Corvette Z06 is distinguished from the Corvette Stingray by unique color
schemes that emphasize the driver-focused cockpit, and a unique, flat-bottomed
steering wheel.
Like
the Stingray, the Z06 will be offered with two seating choices: a GT seat, for
all-around comfort, and a Competition Sport seat with more aggressive side
bolstering, which provides greater support on the track. The frame structure
for both seats is made of magnesium, for greater strength. They’re also more
rigid, contributing to the enhanced feeling of support during performance
driving.
Several trim
combinations are offered for the seats:
1LZ: GT seats
with perforated Mulan leather seating surfaces or Competition Sport seats
with leather seating surfaces and sueded microfiber inserts
2LZ: GT or
Competition Sport seats with perforated Mulan leather seating surfaces; GT
or Competition Sport seats with leather seating surfaces and sueded
microfiber inserts
3LZ: GT seats
with perforated Napa leather seating surfaces; Competition Sport seats
with perforated Mulan leather seating surfaces; GT or Competition Sport
seats with leather seating surfaces and sueded microfiber inserts.
All models feature a fully-wrapped interior, where
every surface is covered with premium, soft-touch materials. Available
materials, depending on the trim level, include Napa leather, aluminum, carbon
fiber and micro-suede. There’s even a micro-LED screen for the passenger’s
climate control placed below the vent on the dash, away from the performance
features on the instrument panel.
Additional interior features include:
The
Z06 also benefits from interior details designed for high-performance driving,
first introduced on the Stingray, including a steel-reinforced grab bar on the
center console for the passenger and soft-touch materials on the edge of the
console, where the driver naturally braces during high-load cornering.
Supercharged performance
The heart of the Corvette Z06 is the all-new LT4
6.2L supercharged V-8 engine, expected to deliver an SAE-certified 650
horsepower (485 kW) and 650 lb-ft of torque (881 Nm). To balance performance
and efficiency, the LT4 leverages the same trio of advanced technologies
introduced on the Corvette Stingray: direct injection, Active Fuel Management,
or cylinder deactivation, and continuously variable valve timing.
These technologies – combined with the
fuel-efficient multi-speed transmissions, aerodynamic design and lightweight
construction – help make the new Z06 surprisingly fuel efficient.
To maintain the Z06’s mass and performance targets,
the LT4 engine was designed with a more-efficient, more-compact supercharger.
Even with its integrated supercharger/intercooler assembly mounted in the
valley between the cylinder heads, the engine is only about one inch (25 mm)
taller than the Corvette Stingray’s LT1 engine – while delivering nearly 37
percent more horsepower and 40 percent more torque.
A 1.7L
supercharger spins at up to 20,000 rpm – 5,000 rpm more than the supercharger
on the Corvette ZR1’s engine. The rotors are smaller in diameter, which
contributes to their higher-rpm capability – and enables them to produce
power-enhancing boost earlier in the rpm band. That boost is achieved more
efficiently via a more direct discharge port that creates less turbulence,
reducing heat and speeding airflow into the engine.
The LT4 engine
also has several unique features designed to support its higher output and the
greater cylinder pressures created by forced induction, including:
Rotacast A356T6 aluminum cylinder heads that are
stronger and handle heat better than conventional aluminum heads
Lightweight titanium intake valves
Machined, forged powder metal steel connecting rods
for reduced reciprocating mass
High 10.0:1 compression ratio – for a
forced-induction engine – enhances performance and efficiency and is enabled by
direct injection
Forged aluminum pistons with unique, stronger
structure to ensure strength under high cylinder pressures
Stainless steel exhaust manifolds that offer
greater structure at higher temperatures
Lightweight aluminum balancer
Standard dry-sump oiling system with a dual-pressure-control
oil pump.
Seven-speed manual
and new eight-speed automatic transmissions
The supercharged
LT4 is offered with a standard seven-speed manual transmission with Active Rev
Match or the 8L90 eight-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission designed to
enhance both performance and efficiency.
The seven-speed manual incorporates rev-matching
technology for upshifts and downshifts. This driver-selectable feature can be
easily engaged or disengaged via paddles on the steering wheel. The seven-speed
is used with a new dual-mass flywheel and dual-disc clutch, which deliver
greater shift quality and feel through lower inertia.
The eight-speed automatic is tuned for world-class
shift-response times, and smaller steps between gears keep the LT4 within the
sweet spot of the rpm band, making the most of the output of the supercharged
engine for exhilarating performance and greater efficiency.
For performance driving, the transmission offers
full manual control via steering wheel paddles, and unique algorithms to
deliver shift performance that rivals the dual-clutch/semi-automatic
transmissions found in many supercars – but with the smoothness and refinement
that come with a conventional automatic fitted with a torque converter.
In fact, the 8L90’s controller analyzes and
executes commands 160 times per second, and wide-open throttle upshifts are
executed up to eight-hundredths of a second quicker than those of the
dual-clutch transmission offered in the Porsche 911.
Featuring four gearsets and five clutches, creative
packaging enables the GM-developed eight-speed automatic to fit the same space
as the six-speed automatic in the Corvette Stingray. Extensive use of aluminum
and magnesium make it more than eight pounds (4 kg) lighter than the six-speed.
Along with design features that reduce friction, the 8L90 is expected to
contribute up to 5-percent greater efficiency, when compared with a six-speed
automatic.
Track-proven structure and technologies
The
Corvette Z06 leverages the technologies introduced on the Corvette Stingray,
including the strategic use of lightweight materials and advanced driver
technologies, with unique features and calibrations tailored for its
capabilities.
Its aluminum frame is produced in-house at General Motors’ Bowling Green
assembly plant. It’s the same robust, lightweight frame used on the Corvette
Stingray and it is used essentially unchanged for the C7.R race cars.
The stiffer design of the aluminum frame allows the Corvette Z06 to be
offered with a removable roof panel for the first time. With the lightweight,
carbon fiber roof panel removed, the new Corvette Z06 offers 20 percent more
structural rigidity than the previous model’s fixed-roof design. It is 60 percent
stiffer than the previous model with the roof panel installed.
The new Z06 retains the SLA-type front and rear suspension design of the
Corvette Stingray but is uniquely calibrated for the higher performance threshold.
The third-generation Magnetic Selective Ride Control dampers are standard on
Z06. They can be adjusted for touring comfort or maximum track performance via
the standard Driver Mode Selector.
Like the Stingray, the Driver Mode Selector tailors up to a dozen
features of the Z06 to suit the driver’s environment, including:
Launch control: Available in Track mode for
manual and automatic transmissions, providing maximum off-the-line acceleration
Active handling (StabiliTrak electronic stability control): A “competitive” setting is available in Track mode and is more suited
for on-track conditions. It can also be disabled, giving the driver complete
control
Traction control: Weather mode tailors traction
control and engine torque for driving in inclement conditions
Performance Traction Management: Available in
Track mode and offers five settings of torque reduction and brake intervention
for track driving
Electronic Limited Slip Differential: Adjusts
the rate at which the limited slip engages, to balance between steering
response and stability in different driving conditions with more aggressive
performance in Sport and Track modes.
The smart electronic limited-slip differential, or eLSD, is standard on
the Z06 to make the most of the torque split between the rear wheels. The
system features a hydraulically actuated clutch that can infinitely vary clutch
engagement and can respond from open to full engagement in tenths of a second.
It shifts torque based on a unique algorithm that factors in vehicle speed, steering
input and throttle position to improve steering feel, handling balance and
traction.
The eLSD is fully integrated with Electronic Stability Control and
Performance Traction Management systems. Its calibrations vary among three
modes, based on the Drive Mode Selector setting:
Mode 1 is the default
setting for normal driving and emphasizes vehicle stability
Mode 2 is engaged when
electronic stability control is turned off in the Sport or Track modes. This
calibration enables more nimble turn-in and traction while accelerating out of
a corner
Mode 3 is automatically
selected when Performance Traction Management is engaged. This calibration has
the same function as Mode 2, but is fine-tuned to work with Performance
Traction Management.
Performance Data Recorder
The award-winning,
industry-first Performance Data Recorder – or PDR – enables users to record
high-definition video, with telemetry overlays, of their driving experiences on
and off the track. It was developed with Cosworth, the motorsports-engineering
company that supplies the Corvette Racing team’s data acquisition and telemetry
electronics system.
The PDR system includes three major components, all
seamlessly integrated into the Corvette Z06’s interior. First is a
high-definition camera, mounted within the windshield header trim, which
records the driver’s point-of-view through the windshield. Audio is recorded
via a dedicated microphone in the cabin.
Second is a
self-contained telemetry recorder, which uses a dedicated GPS receiver that operates
at 5 hertz, or cycles per second – five times faster than the in-dash
navigation system, which allows more precise positioning and corner traces.
Finally, the system features a dedicated SD-card slot in the glove box for
recording and transferring video and vehicle data (SD card not included). Recording time depends on the capacity of the
memory card, but an 8-gigabyte card can record approximately 200 minutes, while
a 32-GB card stores up to about 800 minutes – more than 13 hours of driving
time.
The PDR system can record video with three data
overlay options, each rendered in real time:
Track Mode –
shows the maximum level of data on the screen, including speed, rpm,
g-force, a location-based map, lap time and more.
Sport Mode –
shows fewer details on the overlay but includes key data including speed
and g-force
Touring Mode –
simply records and displays video and audio of the drive with no data
overlay
Performance Mode – records performance metrics, such as 0 to 60 mph acceleration,
1/4-mile speed and elapsed time, and 0-100-0 mph runs.
The video can be viewed on the Corvette Z06’s eight-inch color
touchscreen when the car is parked, or downloaded to a computer for further
editing, and sharing video via social media sites. For users who want a more in-depth understanding of their performance,
the PDR vehicle data can be opened in the included “Cosworth Toolbox” software,
which combines Cosworth’s professional-level motorsport data analysis with an
easy-to-use graphic interface.
The Corvette Z06 is built at GM’s Bowling Green,
Ky., assembly plant.
