Following the unveiling of the 2023 Corvette Z06, Chevrolet has launched a configurator that enables fans to design their own supercar. While it’s fairly basic, the configurator allows users to check out the coupe and convertible as well as their color palette that includes everything from Accelerate Yellow to Elkhart Lake Blue Metallic. The coupe can also be outfitted with body color, transparent or visible carbon fiber roof panels.
Sticking with the exterior, customers can
order an assortment of different wheels including aluminum ones with black,
satin graphite, titanium satin or machine faced finishes. The models can also
be outfitted with carbon fiber wheels that are either painted or feature a
visible carbon fiber weave. If that wasn’t enough options, there are also
accessory aluminum wheels including a set with a bronze finish.
Lastly, there’s the interior which
features a variety of upholstery options and colors such as Sky Cool Gray and
Two-Tone Blue. Customers can also order
a variety of sport seats as well as two carbon fiber styling packages. While
the configurator is actively being updated, it should plicate fans until the
Corvette Z06 goes into production next summer. When it arrives, it will feature
an all-new 5.5-liter flat-plane crank V8 engine that produces an impressive 670
hp and 623 Nm of torque.
The engine is connected to an eight-speed
dual-clutch transmission that enables the model to rocket from 0-96
km/h in 2.6 seconds when equipped with the Z07 Performance package. Speaking
of the latter, it includes an aerodynamic carbon fiber body kit with a larger
front splitter, dive planes, a rear wing and underbody strakes. The package
also adds a beefier Brembo carbon ceramic braking system, specially developed
Michelin Sport Cup 2 R ZP tires, and a unique FE7 suspension with Magnetic Ride
Control 4.0.
