It is hard to imagine a more iconic American car than Chevy's legendary Corvette. The 2025 Chevy Corvette Z06 continues the legacy that started over seventy years ago with a screaming engine, an intuitive transmission, and a braking system to rein in all that power. So, whether you're looking for a track car or a daily driver, there are some head-turning features you should know about. more The Engine The 2025 Corvette has an LT6 5.5-liter engine that throws down 670 horsepower and redlines at 8600 rpm. The monster comes track-ready with a 0 to 60 time of 2.6 seconds and a 10.6-second quarter-mile run at 131 mph. The LT6 has a flat-plane crankshaft that provides balanced airflow and low rotational inertia, while the low-profile forged pistons absorb the stress of rapid RPM changes and high engine speeds. For improved track performance, the engine has dual valve springs and titanium intake valves that excel during high-speed driving. The LT6 is CNC machined for improved airflow, which increases engine breathing, combustion, and driver control. With dual throttle bodies, airflow and intake are optimized at higher-than-average speeds. The Transmission The drivetrain uses an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission that is as smooth as an automatic and as engaging as a manual. This beefy transmission throws a continuous supply of power and torque to the wheels and boasts hyper-fast shifts of 100 milliseconds. One great feature is the double paddle declutch, where drivers hold both paddles to disengage the clutch, which improves shifting. The Brakes The Corvette Z06 enhances stopping power with Brembo 6-piston calipers in the front and 4-piston calipers in the rear. There is a ton of surface area for the brakes to bite onto, as the front rotors measure 15.7 inches and the rear rotors measure 15.4 inches. The carbon ceramic anti-lock brakes help drivers stay in control on slippery roads by reducing wheel lock-up. Ride Control Magnetic Selective Ride Control 4.0 is an advanced damping system that reads the road ahead every millisecond. With the ability to adapt to changing conditions in less than 15 milliseconds, this feature provides optimal control for on-track applications. This ride control feature includes Performance Traction Management and is adjustable using the Driver Mode Selector. It boasts a 1.22g capability and is tuned for performance handling. Data Recording Every race team knows that information is the key to success. The 2025 Corvette Z06 offers a Performance Data Recorder that captures vital data points like acceleration speed, braking, and gear choices. Also available are audio and 1080p video options that help drivers improve performance. To test drive this beautiful beast, come by Ed Martin Chevrolet in Anderson, IN, and feel the performance for yourself.

After Chevy decided to forego releasing a new Trax in 2023, drivers are very excited to see what the 2024 Chevrolet Trax has in store. This well-loved vehicle has made its return, so let's see what this compact SUV has to offer. more Stunning Color Options The Trax stands out from many of its competitor vehicles because it has some unique and beautiful color options that aren't frequently seen on modern cars. The most unique options available are a metallic yellow shade similar to gold and a stunning, subtle cacti green. More common shades, such as red, gray, and white are also available and look as wonderful as ever. Fantastic Wireless Connectivity The Trax lets you connect Apple and Android devices to its infotainment system without wires, using either Android Auto or Apple CarPlay. You can also keep your compatible devices charged with the wireless charging pad available in the front of the cabin. If you'd like to keep those devices connected to the internet, then you'll be pleased to hear that there's also a Wi-Fi hotspot available in the cabin, letting you stay online even while on the road. Advanced Safety Technology Chevy vehicles have some of the best standard safety features on modern vehicles. The Trax has some common safety features like forward collision alert with automatic emergency braking, but it also has some less frequently seen features like a following distance indicator. The latter is fantastic for helping you feel safer, and it's also a great teaching tool for teens who've just started learning the rules of the road. That's one reason the Trax is a great family car. Delightfully Spacious Interior Five adults can sit very comfortably in the compact yet spacious Trax. Its cavernous cabin also makes it a great compact SUV for transporting a lot of cargo. If you fold down the rear seats, then you'll have 54.1 cubes of space to pack all your gear into while heading off on a road trip, moving boxes to a new home or college dorm, or heading home from a bulk-buying spree. Relaxing Ride Experience Noisy roads won't bother you while you're in the Trax, as it has active noise cancellation to make spending time in the cabin more relaxing. Instead of listening to the wind rushing by and the tires crunching on the road, you can instead enjoy listening to your favorite media, talking to your passengers, or simply driving in silence while the passengers slumber during an overnight trip. Are you pleased the Trax is back? If you'd like to see what the new version of this SUV feels like on the road, then come and see it at Ed Martin Chevrolet. We'd love to talk to you about what else it has to offer.

Are you looking to buy a new car? Looking for a way to make this purchase easier on your wallet? Here are just a few of the many reasons why you should get your next car financed through Ed Martin Chevrolet. more 1. Dealers Have the Best Rates When it comes time to get your vehicle financing, it's important to head to the right place. If you want to make sure that you're getting the best, make sure you visit your local dealer. Your dealer wants all aspects of your experience with them to be the best, which is why they'll provide you with the most competitive interest rates. They may also offer you some financing incentives you'll want to consider. 2. You Can Afford a Better Car If you decide to pay for your car in cash, then you may have to make some major compromises. You'll probably have to purchase a lower trim level than the one you really want since you may not be able to immediately afford a higher option. This is just another reason why you should think about getting financing from your dealer. Since you'll only need to put down a portion of the car's total cost as your down payment, you'll be able to splurge a little more and afford the more luxurious model you've been dreaming about. 3. You Can Grow Your Savings One of the other major benefits of getting your vehicle financed is that you can keep growing your savings after making your purchase. If you pay for the entirety of your vehicle's cost in cash, you'll probably have to take a decent chunk of your savings out. But when you choose to finance, you'll only need to take a portion of your savings out for your down payment. That means you can keep the rest of the money around for emergencies or for other major purchases you might be thinking of making. 4. You Can Boost Your Credit Score Do you know what your credit score is? Your credit score can affect your ability to get things like loans, mortgages, rental properties, and even jobs in some cases. Therefore it's important to maintain a good score. If you're worried that your score is low, or even if you're just looking for a way to improve your average one, a car loan is a great way to do that. Almost anyone can get a car loan, and making your monthly payments on time will easily boost your score. If you're buying a new car and you're thinking about getting financing, you need to head to the right place. Visit our financing department at Ed Martin Chevy to learn more.
