Powering the all-new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe is the next-gen 6.2-liter Small Block V8 LT2 engine that is rated to produce 474 hp and 613 Nm torque. With these numbers, the all-new Corvette holds the fastest 0-100kph acceleration time of any entry Corvette ever with 3.55 seconds. This even goes under three seconds with the Z51 Performance Package.
Another highlight of the all-new Corvette is its structure being built around the center tunnel. This gave the Corvette a light yet stiff structure to serve as the foundation for the suspension system for a more optimized performance. Developed to be a true supercar fit for everyday usage, the most exotic Corvette yet is now available through indent orders in any Chevrolet dealership nationwide.
2022 Chevrolet Trailblazer
The iconic Chevrolet nameplate is making a return in the Philippine automotive market. Chevrolet Philippines recently brought in the all-new Trailblazer which is now a premium compact SUV. Now sportier and more dynamic, the latest Trailblazer serves as the latest contender in the heated compact SUV segment.
The sleek exterior design of the all-new Trailblazer is highlighted by its front fascia which takes inspiration from its sports car brethren, Chevy Camaro. This is particularly seen with its Intellibeam headlights, LED DRLs, and LED fog lights. Aside from the totally new design, the Trailblazer comes with top notch safety features as well like Traction Control, Enhanced Stability Control, Roll Over Protection, Hill Start Assist, and Torque Vectoring by Brakes among others.
Like a true compact SUV of today, the all-new Trailblazer is powered by a small but punchy engine. The Chevy compact SUV is powered by a 1.3-liter inline three-cylinder DOHC turbocharged engine that comes from General Motor’s next-gen Euro IV E-Turbo engine lineup. Mated to a Hydramatic VT40 CVT system that brings power to the wheels, the all-new Trailblazer is rated to output 155 hp and 235 Nm torque.
Lamborghini Huracán STO
The Lamborghini race car that is made for the road is now here in the Philippines. The Lamborghini Huracán STO pays homage to the motorsport heritage of Lamborghini Squadra Corse’s Huracán Super Trofeo EVO race car, as well as that of the Huracán GT3 EVO that won the 24 Hours of Daytona three times, and the 12 Hours of Sebring twice.
This Lamborghini that is made for racing homologation purposes is a rear-wheel drive supercar powered by a naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V10 engine that is rated at 640 hp and 565 Nm torque. Power is transferred to the rear wheels via a seven-speed LDF dual-clutch transmission. It has an acceleration performance of 0-100km/h in 3.0 seconds, 0-200km/h in 9.0 seconds, and a whopping 310 km/h top speed.
The Lamborghini Huracán STO or Super Trofeo Omologato draws inspiration from its race car brethren taking technologies developed from the track to the roads. From its one-piece front fascia called “cofango,” to the Huracán Super Trofeo EVOderived rear fenders, the new Lamborghini Huracán STO sports an entirely new exterior design in order to optimize airflow and reduce weight.
