Hennessey Performance Brings Us The 1,000 HP 2015 Corvette Z06

 A Chevrolet Corvette Z06

Chevrolet  has found ungodly success with their classic Corvette models. The Corvette has been a staple luxury sports car for an eternity and always catches people’s eyes when it cruises down the street. While some would argue that the Corvette has gone unchanged over the past couple of years, the new 2015 Z06 model completely redefines the look of a Corvette with a sleeker and more modern looking shape that raises the cars to, once again, be some of the industry’s best. Now, Hennessey Performance has taken these Corvette Z06’s and really upgraded them to be total beasts.

The team at Hennessey Performance loved the new Corvette, but thought it could use some more power, and decided to upgrade it. Their new Corvette is planned to pack an insane 1,000 horsepower (upgraded from a standard 650) with a 6.2 liter supercharged V8 engine, with the supercharger also being modified for more boost and added power. This intensely upgrades the Corvette Z06 in power and performance.

Hennessey Performance has also found plenty of other external and internal upgrades for the car, and their improvements are expected to make the Hennessey Corvette one of the year’s best cars. There is nothing wrong with the base model of the Corvette, but it just is not meeting its full potential, and that’s what Hennessey and his crew plan to accomplish. The car has an amazing Stingray based look but offers nice carbon fiber construction and is plenty comfortable on the inside as well.

The new Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is a complete beast of a car, especially with a price tag of only just under $79,000 with a convertible option for just under $84,000. This Corvette brings a nice refreshing touch to a classic company and the Hennessey upgrades are only going to show how amazing this car can truly be. The upgrades will really reveal the cars full potential and easily get more people interested.
