C8 Z06 spied looking wide and aggressive

February 14, 2020 Off By Mike Vietro

As Chevy does more and more testing of the next iteration of the C8 Corvette, we are starting to see more and more spy shots/videos of them.

The newest, and best-detailed one so far, shows what people are thinking is the new Z06. The video was shot on the I5 freeway in Valencia, California.

The 30-second clip provides a look at the rear end of the cars. Of course, these are still heavily camouflaged and there’s not much to be seen from the actual body shape and details.

What’s more important, however, it seems that Chevrolet is benchmarking the new Z06 with what appears to be a Ferrari 458 Italia. It’s good to know that the engineers will make sure the hardcore ‘Vette will be up to date with its European supercar competition.

According to preliminary information, the new Z06 will use a modified version of the 5.5-liter naturally aspirated V8 with a flat-plane crank from the C8.R race car. If this turns out to be true, we expect the power to be above the race car’s respectable 500 horsepower (373 kilowatts) and 480 pound-feet (651 Newton-meters) because it wouldn’t have to adhere to a series’ regulations.
