Corvette Z06

The Corvette Z06 is a new version of the Corvette (sold in Europe as an independent brand, not as Chevrolet) differs significantly from C6: it has a rack of aluminum instead of steel, a coupe body completely closed (not type 'targa'), and an engine more cubic capacity and power.

Corvette Z06
The Corvette Z06 is rare that single model versions coexist with chassis and other steel frame with aluminum.


In addition to profiles of aluminum, magnesium has a subchasis (lighter than aluminum equal resistance) to accommodate the engine and part of the front suspension. It has used carbon fibre in the front fins and a combination of this with balsa wood for the floor of the passengers.

Corvette Z06
Apart from the lighter materials with which it has built the engine, this weight reduction is due to a decrease the amount of acoustic insulation to "reduce weight and allow greater information sound of the engine and change". The seats are lighter and have no electric adjustment.

2007 Corvette Z06
Although there are several elements that are heavier in the Corvette Z06 that the C6 (the engine and brakes among them), the Corvette Z06 weighs 163 kg less (1,420 instead of 1,583 kg).

2007 Corvette Z06
The suspension of the Corvette Z06 is the same as the C6, with overlapping triangles (of different sizes the upper and lower). What it does is change the mission, which is stronger, and stabilizing the rear.

2007 Corvette Z06
The brakesof the Corvette Z06 are larger, 355 mm front and rear of 340 mm, 15 mm and 10 more than in the C6. The front claws are six pistons with six pills (it gives a more balanced wear with a single larger) and the rear are four pistons.

2007 Corvette Z06
The Corvette Z06 is a closed coupe, does not have a removable roof as the C6. It is the lowest 20 mm, 76 mm wider and 10 mm longer than the Corvette C6. It is also distinguished by the bumper and rear wings wider, the air intake that takes into the bonnet and exits removing fins front, the quadruple exhaust terminal, which is larger and logos specific.

The coefficient of resistance (Cx) from increases of 0.28 to 0.31, which remains a good value for a coupe of this type. One cause of this increase may be the new measure of the tyres substantially increased. Thus, some are 275/35ZR18-front tire at 18 x 9.5 "- and some 325/30ZR19 rear-wheel, 19 x 12" -. Until now carrying around 245/40 ZR18 front and 285/35 ZR19 rear.

The Corvette Z06 engine is an eight-cylinder in 'V' of 7,011 cm ³. Da SAE 507 hp (373 kw) at 6,200 rpm, a maximum torque of 657 Nm at 4,800 rpm and the compression ratio is 11:1. Now the maximum speed is 7,000 rpm. Installed by hand on the "Powertrain Performance Build Center of General Motors.

The standard equipment includes xenon headlamps, fog lamps, air conditioning two areas, instrumentation projected "Head-Up Display '(HUD), which has a mode circuit and an indicator of cross-acceleration (g) and seats two-tone leather, with the logo 'Corvette Z06' sewn.

Among the options available are side airbags, regulation in depth of the steering wheel, heated seats, browser, sound equipment 'Bose' with a charger six CD into the dashboard and polished wheels.

Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron

Bugatti EB has started to manufacture the Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron at the end of 2003, a factory located in Molsheim (France), where it was the original Bugatti factory until its first disappearance.

Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron
The Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron is a two-seater with carbon fiber frame covered with panels of aluminum and composite material of carbon fiber and Kevlar. It measures 4466 mm long, 1998 wide and 1206 high, is rather high, because of the air intakes above and draw attention to their route front of the biggest that there are currently.

Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron
The Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron has a 16-cylinder engine in 'W' (two banks of eight-cylinder V-close) in central rear longitudinal position. Its engine capacity is 7993 cc, took four turbochargers, two intercooler, 64 valves and direct injection. It has four-wheel-drive and a seven-speed semi-automatic with sequential control by means of cams located behind the steering wheel.

Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron
The Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron has only provided the data from 0 to 300 km / h: less than 14 s. The maximum speed is 406 km / h. Until now, and not counting the competition, there has been no model for building more or less regular who has reached such benefits.

2008 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport

2008 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand SportIt has a spoiler that deploys automatically when the Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron reaches a certain speed; the movement of this aileron is to deploy upward and backward, 20 cm in each direction. To get high-speed aerodynamic support, especially at the rear axle, the floor of the Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron has a certain form of inverted wing and the rear is a diffuser, which facilitates the flow of air under the Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron.

2008 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport
W16 maintains the configuration of prototypes earlier, but with the V-90. It measures 710 mm in length and 767 mm in width, that is, is something bigger than the early prototypes. Another major change to the initial W18 and W16 engine is that it is an engine pressure. Its engine capacity is 7993 cc, has four turbochargers, two intercooler and direct injection. It has cylinder heads with four valves per cylinder and continuously variable distribution. The compression ratio is 9.0 to 1.

1001 Da HP (736 KW) of maximum power at 6,000 rpm, is much in relation to its cylinder (125 hp / l), which indicates that Bugatti has some intention of giving a "sporty" to the engine. In fact, a rated maximum speed is 1171 Nm, 94 per cent of maximum torque.

The maximum torque is 1250 Nm, between 2,200 and 5,500 rpm. That the actual average pressure reaches a very large (1964 kPa) indicates that this engine not only draws strength from having lots of engine capacity or many turbochargers; to a normal level would also be an engine with great force. There are few engines that give so much strength relative to its engine capacity (of the Aston Martin DB7 and, above all, the Mitsubishi Carisma Evo VII).

Will be joined to a new seven-speed automatic, which has the structure of a manual, with an automatic clutch. The driver can manually change with sequential controls on the steering wheel, with each change is done automatically in 0.2 seconds.

The 18.3 Chiron had been designed by Giugiaro in Ital Design, had the manufactured chassis in carbon fiber, traction to all four wheels and an unpublished 18-aspirated engine cylinders in a W 60th, with 72 valves, direct injection, 6255 cc, 555 HP at 6,000 rpm and 650 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. Despite such figures, was an engine very compact and had a weight of 315 kilograms.

Only a few months later, in the Hall of Tokyo (December 1999), showcasing the Bugatti again be the point of care with the Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron. The new prototype was an evolution of 18.3 Chiron and was designed by the Volkswagen Design Center, led by Harmut Warkuss. The 18.4 Veyron took the name of Pierre Veyron, the French pilot who was proclaimed winner in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1939 behind the wheel of a Bugatti 57. This model had the same 555 bhp W18 engine that carried the 18.3 Chiron.

The next evolution was presented at the Salon de Paris (September 2000). The new prototype was called Bugatti Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron, received little touches of design and a new W16 engine with 8006 cc, a compression ratio high (10,75:1), 630 hp at 6,000 rpm and 760 Nm at 4,000 rpm.

The angle between the two blocs VR8 was 72 ° and the width of the block of 690 mm. He had four valves per cylinder and direct injection. The dry-sump lubrication era and the ability of oil is 15 liters. Bearing four camshafts in the head and operated chain variable distribution, which allows 85% of full torque from 1500 rpm.

In March 2001, during the Geneva Motor Show, Bugatti presented another new development of the Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron, and announced its intention to begin selling it after 2003 with a new W16 engine that, unlike their predecessors atmospheric, with four turbochargers, an engine capacity of 7993 cc and 1001 no less than HP and 1,250 Nm of torque.

During the 2001 Frankfurt Motor Show, the latest evolution of what appears will be the final Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron, has received design changes of the body, mainly affecting the aerodynamics and its varied slightly dimensions. Its W16 engine also has minor tinkering with the configuration of the covers of butt and orientation of the four turbochargers, although they have not changed their values of power and torque.

The interior continues to dominate the scalp, and the center console is done with a few pieces of aluminum to the dashboard reminiscent of the old Bugatti competition. As in the first 18.3 Chiron, the engine is started by a button located at the center console, next to the gear lever, but now the change can be done through some controls located behind the wheel and drive your gearbox seven gears.
