Here&#8217;s what the track-focused C7 Z06 is packing:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Supercharged 6.2 liter LT4<br \/>\n&#8211; 625 horsepower<br \/>\n&#8211; 635 lb-ft of torque<br \/>\n&#8211; Available 7-speed manual or 8-speed automatic<br \/>\n&#8211; Electronic LSD<\/p>\n<p>The Z06 will be available in early 2015 with performance data and pricing to be announced closer to the start of production. It will be interesting to see where Chevrolet prices the Z06 as its initial performance figures already rival that of the C6 ZR1. Where do they go from here? Will there be a C7 ZR1?<\/p>\n<div data-carousel-extra='{\"blog_id\":1,\"permalink\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.racingjunk.com\\\/news\\\/2015-corvette-z06-reveal\\\/\"}' id='gallery-1' class='gallery
