The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray hasn’t even hit dealerships yet, but rumor has it that GM is already working at the next Z06 and ZR1 high-performance models.

It is said that the next Z06 will keep its 7.0-liter super-engine, but the new car will emanate even more power. As Motor Trend puts it the Z06 it could jump from today’s 505 hp to as high as 600 hp.


Anyway we won’t know it for sure until they get the final number for the next ZR1’s supercharged V-8. This one will have an engine evolved from the LT1 V8 found in the base model C7, and could top 700 hp.

In this case, if the ZR1 will make 675 hp or so, the Z06 will get 550 hp. On the other hand, if the ZR1 will develop 700 hp, the Z06 will crack 600 hp.
