Mod 2015 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 for Car Mechanic Simulator 2018 In 2013, Chevrolet presented an updated version of the legendary Camaro Z28 at the New York Auto Show. Back in 1967, the car was specifically designed to participate in the North American auto racing series of the Trans-Am Sports Car Club. Lightweight, nimble and incredibly powerful, the Z28 was perfect for racing. In 2014, the car has not lost these qualities, showing excellent time on the famous track at the Nurburgring - 7 minutes 37 seconds. “Any sports car should consist of: light steel, a powerful engine, carbon-ceramic brakes, aerodynamic downforce and low curb weight. The new car has all of this, so it’s not by chance that it got the name Camaro Z28, ”said Mark Reuss, president of GM in North America. New Camaro Z28 is not intended to participate in mass races, but this does not mean that its speed qualities should be questioned. In the initial testing, the car turned out to be faster than its "fellow" Camaro ZL1. Such speed parameters are due to: • Improved grip that helps accelerate when cornering Like the original version, in 2014/15, the Camaro Z28 only works on a manual gearbox. Such convenience as air conditioning is installed as an additional option. "We decided to make the fastest car for racing on the highway," said Al Openheiser, chief engineer of Camaro. "While the Camaro ZL1 is great for urban areas, the Z28 is fully focused for the track." Appearance The 2014/15 Camaro Z28 pays homage to the original exterior of a sports car, while at the same time all 21st century technologies that improve aerodynamic and functional qualities are applied. “To further develop high-performance models, we began to listen to our customers,” said Tom Peters, design director for Camaro. "We are constantly looking for solutions that are both functional and beautiful, so that the Chevrolet brand always remains better than expected from it." Compared with the previous model, the new design has received great changes both from the front and from the rear, with the result that the car has a more modern appearance. The front panel now has a wide lower and narrow upper opening. A functional hood with air vents reduces aerodynamic force. Fender slats over the front and rear wheels and extended sills contribute to aerodynamic stability. The Z28 also has a rear spoiler and a functional diffuser, which end the car's aerodynamics. Interior The all-new interior of the Camaro Z28 is made of a matt-metallic material called Octane, sporty, with suede microfiber inserts, and the seats are designed by RECARO ®. Due to the individual manual settings, they firmly hold the driver, even during fast driving. The short-focus shift lever allows you to control gears quickly and confidently. Rear seat restyling was aimed at reducing weight. In total, due to the use of high-density foam instead of steel mesh in the rear seatbacks, the car lost 4 kg in weight. “Unlike the Ford Mustang Boss 302, it was important for us to keep the configuration of the Camaro Z28 2 + 2, because there is already a Corvette sports car in the global market, ”said Al Openheiser. "By changing the design of the rear seat, we were able to reduce the overall weight of the Z28, while maintaining the flexibility of all the seats."
