The 2012 Camaro ZL1 is powered by the supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 LSA engine used in the Cadillac CTS-V. Chevy is promising 550 plus horsepower from the engine, which is mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox.
The 2012 Hyundai Genesis will become the most powerful production Hyundai ever with the introduction of the sporty new 5.0 R-Spec model, which boasts a 5.0-liter V-8 with 429 bhp.
Mechanically, the 2012 Acura TL will continue with its fantastic V-6s. New, though, is a 6-speed automatic transmission that Acura says improves both performance and fuel economy.
As predicted from the pronounced Red Bull logo on its door, Rhys Millen—drifter, stunt driver and Pikes Peak veteran—will be driving the new Hyundai Veloster in the upcoming 2011 U.S. Rallycross season. Rhys Millen Racing, Millen’s race shop, was tasked to building the rally-prepped Velosters. With Hyundai backing Rhys the past few years in his motorsports endeavors, this news came as no surprise. What was completely from left field was the announcement of a second Veloster rally car and its drivers: Robbie Maddison and Marcus Dodd.
Dodge estimates that the 2012 Charger SRT8 can hit 60 mph in less than 5 seconds, reach the quarter mile in under 13 and possess a top speed of 175 mph. In handling, the car is expected to pull 0.88g of lateral acceleration on the skidpad.
