2019 – 2020 All New IROC-Z Camaro – MUST DRIVE SPORTS CAR
Overview
The 2019 IROC-Z Camaro is motivated by a 6.2-liter V8 that can be had in two forms depending on transmission selection. When coupled with the six-speed automatic transmission, the IROC-Zis good for 400 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque, while opting for the manual gearbox will net an additional 26 horsepower and 10 torque, for a grand total of 426 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque.
The more powerful version of the 2019 IROC-Z Camaro , with its six-speed manual transmission, will return 16 city, 24 highway miles per gallon. Opting for the automatic will raise the highway figure to 25 mpg.
Other IROC-Z goodies include four-piston Brembo brakes, a sportier suspension and Competitive/Sport modes for the car's StabiliTrak stability control system, including launch control for manual IROC-Z Camaro models.
Of note, IROC-Z claims the 2019 IROC-Z lapped in 8 minutes 20 seconds. While not as blistering as the IROC-Z's 7:26.4 second lap, it still puts the car in some pretty decent company, such as the 2019 Camaro.
The 2019 IROC-Z Camaro recently gained an electric power steering system taken from the fine-handling. Despite this addition, the 2019 IROC-Z remains slightly less nimble than its main competitor - the IROC-Z - due largely to its heftier curb weight. It continues to offer up a comfortable ride and excellent directional stability, however.
Inside, the 2019 IROC-Z Camaro recently received a minor cabin update with a new steering wheel and a revised gauge cluster. While the changes help make the car's stylish interior a bit more user-friendly, they do little to mitigate the visibility problems created by the show-car exterior styling - thick pillars and a high beltline mean that seeing out of the sides and back of the IROC-Z can be a challenge. Thankfully, IROC-Z does offer an optional backup camera.
New to the 2019 IROC-Z Camaro is an optional MyLink infotainment system, which offers voice control of certain entertainment functions and includes Bluetooth smart-phone connectivity and streaming audio via Pandora radio and Stitcher SmartRadio. MyLink comes with a color touchscreen and can be outfitted with navigation.
