Chevy Website 2023 Corvette Z06 70th Anniversary Model Portrayed in Brief Listing in the online Z06 Visualizer

Leaked images of what could very possibly be the 2023 Corvette Z06 70th Anniversary Edition came directly from Chevrolet on the Motor1.com blog last week, as a mystery user shared multiple shots of a very donned-up C8 with 70th-anniversary badges. The post that all of us here at Chuck Hutton of Memphis got our hands-on digitally portrayed some information regarding the special model listed as well. 

The over-the-top stripes are optional, but red trim for brake calipers and Carbon Flash wheels will be included, and the mirrors and spoiler have unique 70th Anniversary badging outside and inside. Other interior touches include white GT1 seats with red seat belts and a suede steering wheel. Since many various delays took place over the past year, it’s not yet known if the Z06 production will begin next year but is most likely to start churning out on the line during May. 

You’ll be able to snag up this package with the coupe or convertible, but even without it, every single 2023 Corvette will have 70th Anniversary branding directly imprinted on the rear window and center speaker grille. There are also unique wheels thrown in the mix with red edges and anniversary center caps with red brake calipers, a rear bumper protector and trunk cover, and a red engine cover on the 2023 Stingray Coupe model. There’s a special type of anniversary-branded luggage along with Suede seat inserts and a suede steering wheel, with the full package’s hue available in Carbon Flash Metallic or all-new White Pearl Metallic Tri-Coat. 

Even after 70 years, passion for Corvette runs deep, with the very first available C8 Z06 slated for auction at Barrett-Jackson for a most likely and appropriately high price tag! Even after 70 years, Corvette still can make hearts race and kids daydream in major ways about conquering the open road. The Z06 has one glorious and well-defined purpose, and that is to dominate the track, with a flat-plane V8 capable of 670 horsepower making it the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 in production, propelling you from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.6 very short seconds. 

Everyone that comes in any form of close contact with the Z06 is going to immediately love its signature growl and longstanding testament to the best auto craftsmanship in existence. It even hits a redline of 8600 rpm- 2000 rpm higher than the legendary Stingray, and a car this capable requires some of the most serious braking ability on the globe. The standard 6-piston/4-piston rear brakes are designed to give you the best stop you’ll find anywhere on the street, with state-of-the-art performance for the various demands the track doles out. The exterior of the Z06 features wider fenders, quarter panels, and fascias than the Stingray, with a result and finished form as wicked and high-performing as they come. 

Edmunds.com Cites Three Tremendous Traits of the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV

With new and future models coming down the line at Chuck Hutton Chevrolet, the face of automotive history is about to change the game forever! The 2021 Chevy Silverado EV debuted last week, quickly followed by the official announcement that the fully loaded RST First Edition trim sold out a mere 12 minutes after reservations were opened. So many admirable traits will have the limelight concerning this new electric truck, and we wanted to share with you the three most sensational qualities that Edmunds.com loved regarding the EV.

The 400-Mile Range’s Resounding Appeal:

If you have ever driven down a long stretch of highway road running purely on fumes, you may be familiar with the type of range anxiety that can set in during very game-changing trip moments. The 400-mile range of the Silverado EV becomes especially appealing when you may be embarking on a trip where there is not a gas station on every corner. 400 miles is much more than the Ford can lay bragging rights to for its upcoming F-150 Lightning. With the brilliant usefulness of 350-kW DC fast-charging compatibility, an owner can add 100 miles of extra range in just ten short minutes.

The EV Max’s Tow Package’s Impressive 20,000 lbs. of Capacity:

When the Silverado EV first officially debuted, 10,000 pounds was the ballpark that was given for towing capacity. This is heavy-duty enough to be on even par with the crosstown rival from Ford, but lately, an exciting tidbit found its way into a press release. The incoming Silverado EV’s Work Truck will offer a maximum tow rating of 20,000 pounds when equipped with the max tow package that will be available shortly after launch. Doubling down right off the bat is massively impressive, and it’s the type of candor and viable grit we’d expect from the design and engineering team at our beloved bow-tie brand.

Silverado EV Multi-Flex Cargo Bed Ideal for EV Package’s Demands:

The feature that the Edmunds team appreciated most was the Multi-Flex Midgate, which allows owners to expand the cargo bed from 6 to 9 feet if the tailgate is closed. All you must do is fold the 60/40 split-back seats down in part or in full and then fold a lower portion of the cab wall down too. This way you’ll have space for a passenger and long item both at once, and even fold down both sides of the back seat and lower cab wall to do away with the cab’s rear window glass. You can also drop the multi-flex tailgate and then flip up a lip on its trailing edge, and the bed grows to 11 feet long.

Driving range and towing capacity are just two of the superpowers that customers will notice first on the Silverado EV, and we guarantee that anyone doubting that these EV’s will feel like real trucks will be pleasantly surprised! You’re going to love the looks, feel, and class-leading performance that the newest and most ingenious breed of trucks will offer here at Chuck Hutton. 

Car and Driver Ranks Chevy Silverado EV As Coming out Ahead Against the Ford F-150 Lightning

Electrification has long been an incoming element at Chuck Hutton of Memphis as all of the nation’s major brands prepare their unique models to live up to the modernized expectation. Why is this such a high demand spectacle? Every consumer needs to be aware if the charge specs will be up to par and if this “new phenomenon” is permanently here to stay.

The staff at Car and Driver ran a feature last week that was focused on how these new models will find their various forms of success and how they match up in terms of stats and benchmark praise. The Chevy Silverado is targeting up to 400 miles of range from the available 200-kWh Ultium battery pack, with the Ford F-150 Lightning crossing the finish line brandishing 100 miles less. The Silverado weighs in at 10.2 kilowatts of output, while the F-150 Lightning provides 9.6 kilowatts of available power for other EV’s.

Both the Silverado and F-150 Lightning can tow up to 10,000 pounds, with our prized Silverado working on a future model that will be able to tow up to 20,000 lbs. This is where the highly anticipated “heavy-duty territory” sees its first integral notch. This particular blog was also impressed with the 60/40 split on deck courtesy of the midgate to lengthen the bed. The Work Truck trims will offer 510 horsepower and 615 lb-ft of torque. The Silverado’s brand-new RST model providing the “Wide Open Watt” feature enabling 664 horsepower and 780 lb-ft of torque.

Here is where it must be fully admitted that some traits take a slow, gradual formation at hand to fully embrace greatness. This will NOT be the case with electric models: these bad boys have been researched and developed and designed from the ground up with the everyday user’s needs in mind. The SIlverado EV shares the architecture from the GMC Hummer EV and bears similarity to the Ford’s with its independent front and rear suspension. 

One of the currently pressing names of the game as far as trucks are larger screens. The Silverado EV will offer a 17-inch touchscreen and 11-inch digital gauge cluster, trumping what the F-150 offers by nearly two inches. One of the final decision-makers regarding the capability of these two trucks will be made by those who already have a heavy dose of tech-savvy desire for their brand-new rig. The Silverado’s hands-free Super Cruise gives you intelligent backup for the drive on 200,000 miles of pre-mapped highways, while Ford’s Blue Cruise adaption offers only half that under its slightly guarded belt!

“Bring A Trailer” and the Hard-to-Miss Yellow 1991 Chevy Corvette Callaway Twin-Turbo for Sale

Everyone here at Chuck Hutton Chevy of Memphis has heaps of post-holiday love for the classics. As the years keep passing by, what was once nearly modern has moved up the calendar a bit into the nearly antique category! The 1991 Chevy Corvette Callaway Twin-Turbo Convertible finished in yellow is one of the sensational numbers currently up for auction on Bring a Trailer, featured by Connecticut-based Callaway Cars. 

These phenomenal re-tuners of the ‘Vette have built their reputation on modifying the most high-powered models in the business such as the 1988 SledgeHammer. The SledgeHammer had topped 250 mph during testing. This convertible doesn’t quite possess that grade of “high-octane insanity”, but it still boasts a 5.9-liter twin-turbo V8 which was rated at 402 horsepower and 575 lb-ft of torque when the listing was brand-new. Power is delivered rapidly to the rear wheels with a ZF 6-speed manual transmission and limited-slip differential, and this car also sports upgraded brakes and mufflers that came with the factory Z5G Package along with unique Callaway exhaust tips. 

The illustriously curved appearance and deserving recipient of one of 25 Callaway twin-turbo C4 Corvettes to receive the company’s Aerobody body kit. This is the only one in existence painted yellow. The AeroBody includes a revised front fascia that showcases the unique Callaway Corvette air vents, logo, front-fender, rear quarter-panel vents, and hood scoops. You’ll also be rolling into pristine summer day-dream asphalt with 17-inch wheels, a body-color removable hardtop, and a soft black top. With a mere 18,000 miles on the odometer, this is a prime example of how Callaway takes an already monumental machine and spins pure magic into existence. 

Callaway has now also officially announced a partnership with Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park, which has resulted in a new Camaro and Callaway Corvette Track Delivery option. It is facilitated and privileged owner access to Thompson facilities and other promising marketing opportunities. They have also done an amazing job with the Silverado: America’s favorite truck is now offered with the GenThree supercharging and TripleCooled intercooling systems, providing breathtaking power for very aggressive acceleration and heavily boosted hauling and towing stats. The brand-new Eaton TVS R2650-based supercharger boasts matte Callaway Carbon mid-covers which do a great job of covering up the engine wiring, plumbing, and coil packs. 

Inside on the very sweet Silverado rework you’ll find an Alacantara horn cover with debossed logos, billet accelerator, brake pedal pads, and hard-anodized aluminum door sill panels. Both 20 and 22-inch Callaway lightweight alloy wheels come included as standard and give the truck a unique appearance while reducing heavy rotating inertia along with wear and tear. These seasoned experts and pros of the “added touch” also have constructed amazing versions of the Tahoe RST, Yukon Denali, Escalade, and even our prized track-contending pony in the form of the Camaro!
