Motivated by a supercharged V-8 engine producing an estimated 550 horsepower (410 kW), the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 will be the fastest Camaro ever offered by Chevrolet. And more than just power, the ZL1 features technologically advanced and highly developed chassis and suspension systems that help it deliver balanced, track-ready handling and braking power to complement its high engine output. Rigorous development of the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 is ongoing, and official estimates of the car's capabilities will be released later in 2011, as testing nears completion.
The Camaro's disappearance for eight years beginning in 2002 has quickly being forgotten. That's because the current generation Camaro has met and exceeded all expectations for this 2+2 sport coupe. This spring a Camaro convertible rolls out, but it won't be the most sought after model in the Camaro fleet. That honor will belong to the 2012 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, a 550 horsepower machine powered by a supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 engine paired with a Tremec TR-6060 six-speed manual transmission.
