Chevrolet does not waste time. The American brand is already unveiling, at the dawn of the opening of the Los Angeles show, the all-new Corvette ZR1 convertible. A brand new model since it did not exist on the previous generation. This Corvette could become one of the most successful discoveries in the world.
Take the best of the Chevrolet Corvette, and take off the top: you get one of the fastest convertibles in the world. The American brand reveals today the all-new Corvette ZR-1 "convertible", a declination that had not been proposed on the previous generation of ZR1, only sold in coupe.
This is certainly not the first ZR1 cabriolet, since such a model had already been tested by General Motors in the 80s, but quickly abandoned. The only survivor is a prototype exhibited at the museum of the American group.
This ZR1 convertible is the first that will be sold to the public. Chevrolet is not in the lace taking the compressed V8 LT5 6.2, an architecture well known to Chevrolet lovers, with the key 755 ch (and 969 Nm!) For a 0 to 100 km / h under 3 seconds and a maximum speed of 341 km / h for a convertible version that weighs only 27 kg compared to the coupe. Suffice to say, nothing at all.
The most radical will be able to opt for the ZTK pack (2995 dollars in the United States), which allows you to win the carbon front blade, the imposing rear spoiler, the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires and the Magnetic Ride suspension.
