Although this Camaro is not suitable to compete in races, it can dominate any track. There are no official power ratings released by Chevrolet regarding their newest model, however it is rumored that the Z/28 can deliver 470 pound-feet of torque.
They skated around specifics, calling the suspension “heavy duty” and leaving out other details.
Exterior
The new Camaro Z/28 is said to be the most track-capable edition, according to GMC. It boasts of a revised exterior design said to improve aerodynamics. This gives the automobile a better down-force stability and cooling ability at high speeds.
The original mission of the Z/28 was to become the most track-capable Camaro, keeping up Chevrolet’s status as one of the best-selling performance car manufacturers.
Some people love it and some…well, let’s say they’re looking for something else. While you can’t please everyone, this Camaro is definitely one to watch.
Chevrolet says that the Z/28 might not be for everyone as it is too track-focused for some drivers. While there is no official news about the price or the exact release date of this performance vehicle, Chevrolet announced that this model will be the priciest Camaro to date.
