For 2009 the Chevy Corvette is available in four models--Base coupe and
convertible, Z06 coupe, and new this year the ZR1. Updates for this
year include a lower price point for the convertible, along with a more
affordable 1LT Package, Bluetooth connectivity and two new custom
leather interior options. The Z06 horsepower remains the same but
features new "spider" designed wheels, a refreshed interior with minor
changes and increased capacity for the oiling system. The much
anticipated ZR1 was designed and built with a unique combination of
carbon fiber and ceramic materials, including the hood itself (with a
polycarbonate window view into the engine area). The standard engine is
the LS9 supercharged 6.2L V8 rated at 638 hp. Two additional trims are
also available: Championship and Competition Sport Special Editions.
The Chevrolet Corvette was last redesigned in 2005; no information is
currently available on upcoming changes.
