2012 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1
Leaving the others in the Chicago Auto Show debuts a brand-spanking dust new Camaro ZL1 - the most powerful Camaro ever. This beautiful beast is powered by a supercharged 6.2L LSA V-8 engine that produces about 550 hp and 550 Nm of torque, which is just enough to get our hearts racing and our fingers are twitching to grab the wheel.
"Camaro ZL1 is about high-tech performance and design, and the type of vehicle, no one has ever brought to this segment before," said Rick Scheidt, vice president of marketing for Chevrolet. "This is the most technically advanced AO Camaro ever, so that we, Äôve chose the name of the most elite and exclusive Camaro in history."
Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 would be different a new front fascia, hood with air extractors, as well as the signature of the section is built of carbon fiber rendered in a satin black finish. Completion of opinion set a 20-inch wheels and exhaust tips with ZL1 badge on the grille, hood, and brake calipers.
UPDATE 06/13/2011: It is, AOS had a few months after the Camaro ZL1, AO official debut Camaro5 and now offers new details about the most powerful Camaro ever. Apparently, ZL1 will not be shared only with automatic transmission and traction control efficiency of the ZR1. In addition to this tidbit, it seems that the alleged "550 hp" is also incorrect, as Al Oppenheiser confirmed that the yield will be higher than 550 of the CTS-V. Production will begin in the first quarter of 2012.
UPDATE 07/12/2011: When Chevrolet introduced the Camaro ZL1 they did not mention anything about the engine, AO output. At the same time they opened the door to all kinds of speculation. It is a fact that the LSA 6.2L ZL1 get a supercharged V-8 engine with an output for this engine is still up for debate. The yield was originally rumored to have 550 hp, but the most recent speculation suggests that we will see a total of 570 HP. It will be a place between the current Camaro ZL1 SS (426 hp) and the Corvette ZR1 (638 hp).
Exterior
The new and most powerful Camaro will get a new panel design and an aluminum hood with a raised, carbon fiber inserts, front splitter and a new vertical fog lights with air intakes designed to cool the brakes. Hood function of the front of the air cleaners are made in the central part of black satin carbon fiber. Lights Xenon HID model will be to provide plenty of light from the front. Distinctive rear, as well as providing more downforce is more spoiler and diffuser. Newly developed 20-inch forged aluminum wheels help complete the aggressive look of the ZL1.
Interior
In the interior, ZL1 will be available only in black with black leather sport seats with inserts made of microfiber suede. ZL1 logos adorn the front headrests and microfiber suede cover the instrument panel. Other interior features include a new design of the steering wheel, alloy pedals, Head-Up Display with a unique testimony of performance, and "four-pack" of the auxiliary system showing the increase in caliber reading. Heads-Up Display will be available to show the unique testimony of the performance right on the windshield allows the driver to focus on the rapidly approaching horizon ahead.
Camaro ZL1 will come standard with a six-way power driver and passenger seats, unique instrument panel, door panel inserts, and ZL1-logo sill plates. New technologies can be seen in audio steering wheel Thanks to the Bluetooth, wireless PDIM and USB-port, premium Boston Acoustics audio system, rear parking sensors and rear camera system (displayed in the rearview mirror). 1969 introduced the world to a minimalist car muscle name ZL1 - 2012 will see the revival of that nickname with a higher power and an interior packed with more than technology, BMW.
Engine
Chevrolet has decided to use its most powerful engine ever in a Camaro: a LSA 6.2L supercharged V-8 engine that produces an estimated 550 HP and 550 lb.-ft. of torque. The engine is mated to a Tremec TR6060 six-speed manual transmission that uses a 240-mm dual-mass flywheel matched with a 240-mm twin-disc clutch system to provide excellent shift smoothness. In order to harness all this power the new ZR1 will also have Magnetic Ride Control offering two settings depending on how quickly you want to get to work that day. Brembo brakes will be used on all four wheels with six piston calipers out front and four piston units at the back. Complete performance figures are not yet available, but we are sure this will be more than just a contender in its class.
Prices
The new Camaro ZL1 go on sale in early 2012. Pricing will be announced later, but we think that it will cost somewhere around competition, and about $ 15 thousand more than the model SS. If we are right and this is included in the price of $ 50,000 the region than it will not be cheap thrills, as the Challenger SRT8, but it can set new performance records for Chevrolet and industry.
Competition
Any muscle car fanatic will tell us that the most important thing for any competitor to his Camaro Ford Mustang counterpart. Camaro ZL1 specifically has views of the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. GT500 is equipped with a 5.4-liter supercharged V8 that produces 550 hp and 510 lb-ft of torque, which provides only a Camaro with a small advantage from jump. On the numbers are so similar, we can only imagine that the ball is now in the court of Ford to come up with a new model of Chevrolet to blow out of the water. It was a long time Chevrolet was the answer to the mighty GT500 and we look forward to ongoing wars car muscle.

It’s a poorly kept secret that many Americans are quite fond of the Australian-made and Commodore-derived, Holden Ute, which we recently drove in Queensland. It’s big, brutish and comfortable with a bevy of engine and equipment options to suit virtually any budget or taste - so long as those tastes only extend to, “Big, brutish V6 or V8 engined utes”.
