Introducing the Fastest & Most Accessible Camaro Yet

MT. PLEASANT, Mich -- Coming in late February, the fastest, most accessible, and track-capable Camaro yet, the 2019 ZL1 1LE. Available with a 10-speed automatic transmission, this vehicle is optimized for speed and endurance.

During the vehicle's development, Chevy engineers pushed the limits of the automatic transmission to be more than one half second faster than the standard manual on General Motors' 2.9-mile Milford Road Course. However, this vehicle doesn't just save you time at the track, it gives customers a  more engaging driving experience due to a plethora of other performance options like: 

• Downforce-Producing Aero: unique features include a carbon fiber rear wing, specific air deflectors and dive planes on the front fascia that produce grip-generating downforce to help the car stick harder and drive faster in turns.

• Adjustable Suspension: Racing derived, lightweight Multimac DSSV dampers front and rear offer exceptional wheel and vehicle control. The front-end ride height is adjustable, along with the camber geometry. The rear stabilizer bar also offers three-way adjustability.

• Wheels and Tires: Specific lightweight forged aluminum wheels are an inch wider but an inch smaller in diameter, front and rear, than standard ZL1 wheels and are used with new summer-only Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3R tires that deliver max lateral grip of 1.10g. 

• Lighter Weight: The lighter wheels and dampers, along with thinner rear glass and a fixed-back rear seat, contribute to more than 50-pound lower curb weight than a standard ZL1 Coupe.

• Supercharged Performance & More: The power behind the ZL1 1LE is the 650-horsepower, supercharged LT4 engine. Brembo brakes are included, along with dual-zone automatic climate control, Bose premium audio system, heated and ventilated front seats, and a heated steering wheel.

The new transmission comes with many changes that live up to the requirements of the 1LE performance package. Unique calibrations were made to the transmission, electronic limited slip differential, and performance traction management system. The front and rear Multimac DSSV dampers have been tuned to accommodate the quicker shifts in weight transfer. New hardware includes an updated transmission oil pan and an additional cooling duct for the steering gear. 

All these upgrades are just another way that Chevrolet is upping their game for 2019. Steve Majoros, director of Chevrolet passenger car and crossover marketing said of the new package: 

"Adding an automatic transmission is another example of the Camaro portfolio delivering what customers want. This ultimate 1LE package is just another appealing option that is true to its racing heritage."
