“With a 0-60 time of under three seconds, we need to stop it just as fast. “The highly anticipated Corvette with its mid-engine design will be stopped by a complete Brembo brake package from calipers to pads, and you’ll park the vehicle with our EPB,” said Dan Sandberg, Brembo North America president and CEO. The new design for the GM EPB delivers a 3 kg (6.6 lbs.) per car weight savings over the previous drum-in-hat style system. Activation of the parking brake is as simple as pushing a button. The Brembo EPB reduces part complexity, with the elimination of a brake pedal, brake lever and associated cables. In addition, for the first time in Corvette history, the eighth generation will come with a Brembo Electronic Parking Brake (EPB). The pads on the Z51 are 10 percent larger than the previous generation and feature a new zinc-nickel base coating for more longevity and resistance to corrosion. The Z51 Performance Package includes low-met performance brake pads. Brembo’s all-aluminum monobloc four-piston calipers on the front are an all-new option. The Corvette Stingray, when ordered with the Z51 Performance Package, gets an upgraded brake package to provide increased stopping power for the track-capable Corvette. The NAO pad is environmentally friendly and provides excellent stopping power. In addition to the brake calipers, Brembo will also include its new zero-copper Non-Asbestos-Organic (NAO) brake pad that meet recent environment regulations. The Brembo supplied calipers shine through the Corvette’s five spoke 19 or 20-inch wheels and are available in a choice of four colors: Edge Red, Black, Yellow, or Bright Red. Stopping the 495 horsepower, most powerful entry Corvette ever, at the drive wheels are Brembo’s all-aluminum four-piston calipers, which grasp a 321mm ventilated disc.

Two separate brake package offerings will be available with the Corvette Stingray and the Corvette Stingray with the Z51 Performance Package. Brembo, the world leader and acknowledged innovator of brake technology, is the stopping partner of choice for the all-new 2020 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray.īrembo will supply brake components on all four corners of the mid-engine Corvette Stingray.
