Chevrolet Releases 2017 Camaro 1LE and ZL1 Performance Numbers

by Andrew Nabors
August 9, 2016
in Camaro, Chevrolet, News
Revealed: 2017 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1

The ZL1 features a supercharged LT4 6.2L V-8 Small Block engine, with intake and exhaust systems tailored for Camaro. It is rated at an estimated 640 horsepower (477 kW) and 640 lb-ft of torque (868 Nm), backed by a standard six-speed manual transmission or all-new, available paddle-shift 10-speed automatic. The 10-speed automatic has 7.39 overall ratio for smaller steps between gears. It enables the LT4 engine to remain at optimal rpm levels during acceleration, particularly when exiting corners, for quicker laps and lightning-quick responses on both up- and down-shifts.

Camaro is turning 50 years old this year, so Chevrolet is celebrating with performance numbers for the 2017 Camaro 1LE and ZL1. The former was an option that began in the late 80’s which offered upgraded suspension and brakes for showroom stock racing. We loved the 2014 1LE because it joined the best features of the ZL1 without the price of the supercharged model.

The 2017 Camaro ZL1 is poised to challenge the most advanced sports coupes in the world in any measure with unprecedented levels of technology, refinement, track capability and straight-line acceleration. A cohesive suite of performance technologies tailors ZL1's performance, featuring an updated Magnetic Ride suspension, Performance Traction Management, electronic limited-slip differential, Custom Launch Control and Driver Mode Selector. With a stronger power-to-weight ratio than its predecessor, it weighs 200 pounds less, and offers approximately 60 more horsepower and 80 more pound-feet of torque.

For 2017 the package will offer suspension from the SS on V6 cars for $4,500. Rated at 335 hp the V6 represents a sizable portion of Camaro sales, so we’re glad they also get Brembo brakes and dual-mode exhaust. For Super Sport models, the 1LE package offers magnetic suspension and the electronic differential from the upcoming ZL1 for $6,500. If you enjoy cornering, the SS 1LE will hold 1.02g in the corners and leap to 60 mph in 4.2 seconds.

The driver-focused interior of the Camaro ZL1 features standard Recaro front seats, along with a sueded flat-bottom steering wheel and shift knob. Chevrolet’s Performance Data Recorder is available, and allows drivers to record, share and analyze driving experiences on and off the track.

For the ultimate in Camaro performance, the new ZL1 delivers a serious punch. In the old days, Camaro’s top-level engine was always a few horsepower shy of the Corvette. Whether or not the engines were actually different will always be a matter of debate, but those days are over. By taking the 650 hp LT4 V8 directly from the Corvette Z06, you will have quarter-mile times of 11.4 seconds at 127 mph.

The 2017 Camaro ZL1 is poised to challenge the most advanced sports coupes in the world in any measure – with unprecedented levels of technology, refinement, track capability and straight-line acceleration. A cohesive suite of performance technologies tailors ZL1’s performance, featuring an updated Magnetic Ride suspension, Performance Traction Management, electronic limited-slip differential, Custom Launch Control and Driver Mode Selector. With a stronger power-to-weight ratio than its predecessor, it weighs 200 pounds less, and offers approximately 60 more horsepower and 80 more pound-feet of torque.

The 6th generation ZL1 is 220 lbs lighter than its predecessor which allows it to reach 60 mph in only 3.5 seconds. For $62,000 you will have your choice of six-speed manual or a new 10-speed automatic transmission. Both 1LE and ZL1 feature the latest in Brembo brakes and active handling to make for a world-class muscle car. For more information on these new models, our dealers will be happy to help you find the right Camaro for you.
