Default Automatic ?

Is the new 8 speed automatic in the 2015 C7 the same one that will be in the 2015 ZO6? Thank you.

As stated above Yes, it will have 8 Speeds but not the same, It will have better cooling and should have more torque capacity also shifting patterns might be a bit different.

Do you have a reference for that? I was under the impression that the transmission itself is the same.

If you want an automatic, you need a Class 2 license. Otherwise you'll have to settle for a semi-auto
