2023 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 secrets revealed ahead of debut
Fox News
The 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Z06's V8 can apparently rev to 8,600 rpm, according to a new teaser video for the upcoming sports car. The new model is set to debut on Oct. 26.
That's exotic car territory and faster than any American V8 before, a title previously held by the 2015 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350's 5.2-liter engine at 8,250 rpm.
The video debuted "8,600 minutes" before the reveal event and shows a tachometer swinging past the 8,500 rpm mark as the car hits 100 mph.
The high-pitched sound it makes suggests the engine uses a flat-plane crankshaft design like the Shelby's and Chevy's own Corvette C8.R race car.
