Experts and Celebrity Enthusiasts to Usher in Corvette Z06’s 2023 Model

Professional basketball superstar Devin Booker and performance driver Emelia Hartford are starring in a reveal film highlighting the Corvette Z06. The 30-minute project premieres at 12 P.M. ET Tuesday, October 26 and will feature a panel discussion with experts who will outline how the Z06 promises to wow with its delivery, handling, and overall experience.

Motortrend saw a teaser video showcasing the flat-plane crank V8 revving up to 8,600 RPM. For those curious about what the ’23 Corvette Z06 will look like, the Corvette Instagram account is the place to look! 

A brand-new wheel design is evident, and much of the excitement has been centered around the 5.5-liter flat-plane crankshaft V8, which is expected to produce around 600 horsepower. The streets will never sound the same, and this car will be unlike anything anyone has seen or heard before. 

An overall wider stance is expected, with punched-out rear fenders above the massive 345 mm rear tires, and some of the prototypes having been spotted with 275 mm tires in the front. Two years ago, the Z06’s interior was teased brandishing two big red buttons on the steering wheel marked “Spec Mode.” There was also carbon fiber instead of leather on some surfaces. The digital gauge cluster in this sketch portrayed a racetrack layout, perfect for high-performance driving on the world’s best tracks. 

Car and Driver caught one Z06 testing its launch control system on GM’s proving grounds, and were all itching to try the exact same thrilling feat for themselves. Some fans will be excited about an audio clip leaked last year that showed off the naturally aspirated 5.5-liter flat-plane-crank V8 revving and accelerating with the cleanest and most distinguished sound yet!

2022 Chevy Trailblazer Maximizes "All-Important Urban and Freeway Time” With Test Crew

The Daily Herald staff initiated quite the trip last year when they took a Chevy Trailblazer rambling capably across the old Pony Express Trail in Utah’s West Desert, giving the SUV an intense workout that put its off-road ability to the true test.

They visited some scenic and challenging desert areas with a final destination of Fish Springs National Wildlife Refuge. In the 17,000-acre wetlands, the group vowed that they would do the same drive again someday to see all of the different birds and other wildlife at this spectacular refuge. The journey then continued into Nevada on all-dirt roads and the powerful SUV behaved without a hitch.

This year, cruising in the 2022 Trailblazer, the group went on a trip to Salt Lake City and Ogden, choosing locations with more urban character and putting extra emphasis on headroom and legroom. The crew’s testing model was the upper-level ACTIV trim with just over the EPA estimate of 28 combined mpg. The crew also appreciated the heated leatherette seating and steering wheel.

The Technology Package was the addition this crew felt was most valuable, as it adds the Infotainment 3 Plus system, HD Radio, and SiriusXM with 360L. The Bose premium 7-speaker stereo is controlled by an enhanced 4.2-inch diagonal multi-color display with an 8-inch diagonal color HD diagonal touchscreen. It features wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay capability, Adaptive Cruise Control, HD Rear Vision Camera, and LED headlamps. Another great choice for those who are looking to get the most out of their Trailblazer outdoors is the Sun and Liftgate Package, which provides a dual-pane panoramic sunroof, programmable hands-free liftgate, and LED logo projection for a sweet extra visual touch.

Every Trailblazer model comes equipped with AWD and three drive modes: Normal, Sport, and Snow are all primed to quickly change your throttle mapping, wheel power allocation, and shift points to help suit road conditions you’re facing. All the controls are nicely laid out and within reach, and the exterior design takes some notable and sporty cues from the Blazer. The ACTIV trim is suitable for anyone looking for an off-road vibe, and the RS model has borrowed a few great attributes from the Camaro. Every model comes fully equipped with the Chevy Safety Assist system, which bundles automatic emergency braking with lane-keeping assist, lane departure warning, following distance indicator, and automatic high beams. 

2022 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban Top Trim Levels Coming With Brand-New Power-Sliding Console

The 2022 Chevy Tahoe and 2022 Chevy Suburban will be arriving soon, bringing along with them XXL-sized excitement, amazing practicality, and a strong sense of American-made pride. There is nothing more fun than new features, and this star-studded pair will come with a power-sliding center console included with the top trim models. 

This awesome addition to the lineup was first introduced in 2021 and can slide forward and backward up to ten inches. This gives you the ability to slide back and give passengers in the rear cupholders or slide forward to give first-row passengers an ideal armrest. From a recent graduate to the growing family, everyone can benefit from a secure place to keep items out of sight. The power-sliding console works like a snap, and there is no way to move the console forward unless you are in accessory mode or engine on mode. All you have to do is tap the button just above the SUV’s rear view mirror to take advantage! 

The 2022 Tahoe is spacious, well-equipped, and has great engine choices along with a 12-inch digital driver information display that now becomes standard, as well as the Buckle to Drive feature added. Enhanced Trailer View is now offered in the two upper trims, and RST trim is offered with a new Sport Performance package. Kelley Blue Book named it as one of the Best Family Cars of 2021 for its body-on-frame construction that offers class-leading towing abilities and an independent suspension for a smooth ride!

The 2022 Suburban now has a standard digital gauge cluster on most trims, and the powerful 6.2-liter V8 is available on RST, Z71, and Premier trims. You’ll be enjoying the all-around productivity and convenience of Google Assistant during each drive, and there are up to 13 available camera views to keep you safe and alert you of your surroundings.

Both vehicles are great for anyone who is looking to haul camping gear or passengers, and a class-leading and responsive drivetrain make them the perfect fit for any driver!

Every Lap Run Under Caution During NASCAR Will Now Aid In Making Strides Against Breast Cancer

During October, Chevy will begin supporting the American Cancer Society with a contribution of $350 for every NASCAR lap run under caution, adding a charitable element to the three NASCAR Cup Series races scheduled to take place.

The Camaro ZL1 has long been a track-ready and fine-tuned machine, and a unique pink “Making Strides Against Breast Cancer” model will serve as the pace car at the NASCAR Cup Series races at Talledega Superspeedway, Texas Motor Speedway, and Martinsville Speedway this October. The crowd response during these action-packed races has always been amazingly positive, and this is the 11th year in a row that Chevy has partnered with the American Cancer Society. We know how powerful the strength in numbers is when it comes to fighting cancer, and Chevy will also make the effort to donate $5 toward the fight against breast cancer this month with every post on Twitter, Instagram, and Tik Tok that uses the hashtag #WeDriveFor. 

This Camaro that is now instrumental in fighting this tragic disease is powered by a supercharged 6.2-liter V8. When paired with the 6-speed manual transmission or available 10-speed automatic, the small-block V8 has the capability to clock amazing performance and possess legendary force on the dragstrip. With a well-balanced rear-drive chassis and can stop from 70 mph in 143 feet, the ZL1’s brakes are top-of-the-line. 

Standard equipment on the ZL1 includes power-adjustable front seats with heating and ventilation, a heated steering wheel, dual-zone automatic climate control, a Bose audio system, wireless phone charging, and a head-up display. A smooth ride, good value, and potent acceleration are traits that set the ZL1 apart. This car that has now stepped up to the plate to fight to keep families healthy and reveling in early detection of this disease has always displayed the best traits of Detroit muscle, and supreme performance on the strip!
