For decades, the Chevy Corvette has been America’s most coveted sports car, providing drivers with the excitement of high-performance handling, potent powertrains, and elevated sport-inspired features. The 2025 Corvette Z06 continues that legacy with modern technology and track-focused performance across its three distinct trim levels.
Shared Powertrain
All Z06 trim levels share the same performance-driven powertrain. It begins with the 5.5-liter V8 DI high-output engine featuring a flat plane crank, variable valve timing, and a special dry sump oil system. Together with an 8-speed dual clutch transmission with a double paddle declutch feature, the 5.5-liter V8 delivers 670 horsepower and 460 foot-pounds of torque to the Corvette’s RWD drivetrain.
1LZ
The base trim in the Corvette Z06 line is the 1LZ, and it offers a robust lineup of performance and safety features that set it apart from other American sports cars. For example, it includes standard driver assistance and safety features like all-speed traction control, an HD rear vision camera, lane change alert with lane departure warning, forward collision alert, automatic emergency braking, and a following distance indicator.
The 1LZ has many features that would be considered optional in other models, including a Bose Premium 10-speaker audio system, IntelliBeam high beam headlamps, a 12-inch color driver information center, the Chevrolet Infotainment 3 System with an 8-inch color touchscreen and Google built in, Mulan leather seating surfaces, an active handling stability control system with traction control, and performance exhaust.
2LZ
The Z06’s mid-level trim offers the performance-driven features of the lower trim and additional amenities that increase comfort and connection. The 2LZ trim offers drivers enhanced interior amenities like heated and ventilated 8-way power driver and passenger GT1 bucket seats with power lumbar control and a heated, leather-wrapped performance steering wheel.
There are also added technological amenities found in the 2LZ, such as a Bose Performance Series 14-speaker audio system, wireless device charging, a front view camera for easier parking, an integrated theft deterrence system, and an innovative performance data and video recorder.
3LZ
At the top of the Z06 line is the 3LZ trim level, which incorporates the most advanced features of the lower two trims alongside opulent interior luxury amenities. For example, the 3LZ has upscale interior features like a sueded microfiber upper trim package, a heated and leather-wrapped carbon fiber steering wheel, GT2 front bucket seats, and luxurious Napa leather seating surfaces.
The 3LZ also includes standard driver assistance features like an innovative vehicle health management system, a side blind zone alert, rear cross traffic alert, and front pedestrian and bicyclist braking.
The new Z06 marks the next chapter in the evolution of the Corvette line, offering advanced technology and legendary performance. Contact Ross Downing Corvettes in Hammond, LA, to experience the Z06 and take one for a test drive today.
