Chevy releases first official 2023 Corvette Z06 photo

Chevrolet has released the first official photo of the 2023 Corvette Z06. This halo-spec mid-engine Corvette is expected to be powered by a 5.5-liter, flat-plane-crank V8 with a red line as high as 9,000 RPM.

GM teased us back in August with some photos and video of its still-camouflaged prototype touring Europe ahead of the 2021 24 Hours of Le Mans, but this is our first look at the new mid-engine performance variant in the flesh. Frankly, without the added aero of its track-spec Z07 package (or whatever it may end up being called), it looks pleasantly subdued.
