Corvette ZHZ Convertible

Hertz rent-a-car has introduced an innovative, limited edition Corvette ZHZ convertible into its Hertz Fun Collection. The natives might be already aware of the fact that Hertz introduced the Fun Collection as an exclusive means to enable the commoners to rent a supercar for nominal amounts. The collection is broadly classified into three - luxury SUVs, coupes/roadsters and convertibles. The Corvette ZHZ is included among the convertibles.

So, how is this car different from the conventional Corvette model released some time back? The original Corvette came with a 400 hp powerhouse. The Corvette ZHZ packs the punch with a 436 hp 6.2L V8 engine. No wonder they have termed it as a supercar. Here is a low down for the auto enthusiasts among you. The default gearbox has been upgraded to tally up with the enhanced engine. As a direct consequence of the time, the Corvette ZHZ comes with a six speed paddle transmission. In order to ease your driving experiences, GM has specifically included an automatic transmission with the car. The resultant driving experience is simply exhilarating. The aerodynamic design of the car resembles the older sibling.

A supercar must stand out of the crowd. Hence, GM has included custom paint job on the Corvette ZHZ. The next time you are speeding along the freeway; do not be surprised when this yellow and black colored monster overtakes your ride easily. In order to improve the stability levels of the Corvette ZHZ, GM has included 18-inch tires on the front and 19-inch tires on the rear. Yes, you are now curious about the make and model of the tires included with this car - it is Goodyear Eagle F1 EMT tires. The difference in the tire sizes will work out to be advantageous to the driver while maneuvering sharp turns at high speeds.

Another notable feature that has been included with the Corvette ZHZ is the magnetic selective ride control switch. Yes, I can see a few raised eyebrows. Instead of including an electronically operated ride control mechanism, GM tries to keep it simple (and not stupid). Two modes are available - sport and tour. If you seek that adrenalin rush, it is wiser to switch to sport mode. The tour mode works best while you plan to cruise along the freeway, listening to the Sirius XM radio. Please do take a note of the fact that Sirius is a subscription based digital radio service - you might be asked to make advance payments for the same.

Spending those cherished days with your Corvette ZHZ is not going to make a significant hole on your pocket. The vehicle is capable of delivering 25mpg on an average. The Corvette ZHZ also boasts of luxurious interiors and a tough HVAC system that chills the interiors within minutes. The inclusion of larger ventilated disks' acts as an effective and efficient manner to bring this monster to a stop swiftly. At the end of the day, you are going to be one happy man for spending time with this limited edition supercar from GM.

Insurance-wise, the ZHZ scores great thanks to Hertz not charging too big an extra fee compared to their regular cars. This is such a huge advantage compared to other luxury car rental agencies. When you compare car insurance for the ZHZ with other corvettes with other agencies, savings can sometimes be as big as 300%! We guess Hertz works a lot with online auto insurance companies to make this kind of great price offers possible!
