The task of the ZL1 is simple: to take the fight to the most powerful versions of its longtime rivals, the Ford Mustang and Dodge Challenger , on the road, track, and drag-strip. While it may not have the outright firepower or over horses like the Hellcat or GT, the ZL1 has more than a couple of tricks up its sleeve to keep its rivals on their toes.
The Camaro lineup is based on the sixth-gen model of the muscle car. The ZL1 version of this generation was first introduced in as the most hardcore version of the Camaro range, and none of that has changed since. To help onlookers distinguish it from the lesser Camaro models, the ZL1 has an aggressive demeanor. Some bits that make the ZL1 stand out include inch forged alloy wheels shod with Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar tires, LED daytime running lights, dark bowtie badges, large air intakes and wind deflectors, and a special rear spoiler.
The 1LE brings a number of goodies to the ZL1 including a unique front splitter design, carbon fiber hood insert and rear spoiler, darkened tail lamps, red brake calipers with 1LE logo, and more. For better road-grip and performance, it gets more performance-oriented Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3R tires shod with lighter but smaller inch forged aluminum wheels. Instead, we'd simply add the performance data and video recorder for capturing the days we're brave enough to bring this hp hellion to the racetrack.
The Camaro's supercharged 6. As you'd expect, when stirred up, it leaves the sound of thunder echoing in its wake. Whether paired with the standard six-speed manual transmission or the available speed automatic, the supercharged small-block V-8 lays down stupidly incredible performance figures. The fast-shifting automatic results in quicker acceleration times than the stick , but either way, this Chevy is a demon at the drag strip. Already a satisfying handler with quick and communicative steering, a balanced rear-drive chassis, and a surprisingly supple ride, the Camaro is elevated to new heights by the ZL1 gear.
Its adaptive dampers change their stiffness based on the selected drive mode, but even the hardcore modes don't ruin the car's decent, if firm, ride. Want more? Grab the 1LE track package , which vaults the ZL1 into near supercar territory. Its wider and stickier tires, manually adjustable front suspension, and exclusive spool-valve dampers help chew up racetracks and spit out happy drivers.
The ZL1 stops from 70 mph in feet, and the ZL1's brake pedal operates with a firmness befitting a performance car. Warm up your tires using Line Lock, which lets you lock the front wheels to enable the rear wheels to spin. This feature is intended for use during closed-course race events.
To help keep ZL1 glued to the track, aerodynamic enhancements like a front air dam, splitter, carbon-fiber hood extractor and rear wing are designed to reduce lift. The Head-Up Display puts data including vehicle speed, selected gear, g force and more near your line of sight by projecting a digital readout onto the windshield. The available Performance Data Recorder pairs footage of your drive with real-time performance data to help you analyze your technique and improve your driving abilities on and off the track.

The ZL1 has a hp supercharged V-8 behind its aggressive-looking front end, and it offers drivers their choice of an engaging manual transmission or a lightning-quick automatic. The mightiest Camaro is also available as either a hardtop coupe or a soft-top convertible.
While its claustrophobic cabin has a tiny back seat and poor rear visibility, every model features a fully stocked touchscreen infotainment system and desirable options. Still, the ZL1 specifically caters to folks who like cars that are loud and fast. Likewise, the track-ready 1LE package makes this Camaro even better at going, stopping, and cornering than it already is.
