Chevrolet has finally revealed just how fast the 466kW/861Nm 6.2 litre supercharged V8-powered 2015 Corvette Stingray Z06 really is.
With the US carmaker previously silent on the matter, you could have been forgiven for thinking that the new Corvette was perhaps something of a disappointment against the stopwatch.
But nothing could be further from the truth, with Chevy finally revealing that the Z06 with the eight-speed automatic transmission will hit 96km/h (60 MPH) from rest in just 2.95 seconds.
That's quicker, if only by the tiniest of fractions, than the 679kW Lamborghini Asterion revealed today.
Once 10.95 seconds has passed, the Z06 auto will have reached the finish line on the quarter-mile (400 metres) drag strip and will be travelling at a speed of 204km/h.
