Rumor says 2022 Corvette Z06 will get a high revving naturally aspirated V-8

In the past, Rumors have suggested that the 2022 Corvette Z06 will have a twin-turbo engine midship. However, a new report indicates that the engine won’t have turbos after all. The Z06 will use a naturally aspirated 5.5-liter flat-plane twin-cam V-8 engine that revs to 9000 RPM according to this new rumor.
The turbo version of Corvette V-8 will be used in an even more potent version, perhaps a refreshed ZR1. That is an extremely high redline for a larger displacement V-8 engine and should make for a fantastic soundtrack to go along with the car’s performance. Motortrend speculates the Z06 could produce as much as 625 horsepower with around 485 pound-feet of torque.
Granted, that would be less than the supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 in the previous version of the Z06. Motortrend says that its source has told it that the engine will be “a screamer.” There is another naturally-aspirated flat-plane crank V-8 engine on the market under the hood of the Shelby GT350.
That engine produces 526 horsepower and 429 pound-feet of torque from 5.2-liters of displacement. It makes sense for Chevrolet to build the track-focused Z06 with a naturally aspirated V-8 rather than a supercharged V-8 found in the C7 Z06.
The supercharged C7 Z06 had major heat soak issues to the point where Chevrolet was forced to buy back many of the cars under a class-action lawsuit. As for the ZR1 C8 Vette mentioned before, Motortrend expects that vehicle to produce around 800 horsepower and use hybrid power. Both of these cars sound fantastic.

Today’s Wordle Answer #649 – March 30, 2023 Solution And Hints

If you’re still unsure, the solution you seek is bread. Certainly, the word needs no introduction, but its origins might be unfamiliar to you. Etymonline reports that its specific roots are uncertain, but one prominent position is that it is from Proto-Germanic “brautham,” itself from the Proto-Indo-European root “bhreu-,: which means to boil, burn, or bubble, a reference to the rising or leavening of the dough used for bread.
The same source notes that the Oxford English Dictionary maintains that the word derives from Proto-Germanic “braudsmon-,” which means fragments or bits, in the sense of meaning “piece of food.” Fun fact, the Old English word for bread was “hlaf,” which is the root from which the modern word “loaf” is derived.
Since “great” worked, well … great as a starting word yesterday, we repeated it today as well, and it delivered. There were only eight possible answers after it, and we made a lucky and correct second guess. We hope you finish just as fast, and if you’re in the mood for more puzzles, check out these other Wordle-like games.

Microsoft Is Already Exploring Ads For Bing Chat

In a blog post published on March 29, Microsoft discussed the topics of boosting traffic and overall “value” for publishers in relation to Bing Chat. The company acknowledged the role that publishers play in creating content and the vital importance of advertisements, which fund the paychecks for those behind the websites. The company says that it has made it a “top goal” to “drive more traffic to publishers in this new world of search.”
Revenue is a key concern, of course, which is where the second goal comes in. Microsoft says that it is working on “pioneering the future of advertising” as it relates to an AI-dominated internet. How will it do that? Two possibilities were shared: displaying multiple links from publishers when the user hovers over a reference, and a revenue-sharing arrangement with publishers that could, among other things, involve putting ads in the chatbot. In the example provided by Microsoft — which is simply referred to as an idea at this time — the revenue would be shared with the publishers whose content was used to generate the answer for the user.
Of course, Bing Chat is only one player in the arena, with its most notable competition being Google Bard — though the latter is still very much in its infancy and was, by all accounts, a rushed project spurred out of desperation to stay competitive. It seems likely that Google will eventually embrace some sort of revenue-sharing arrangement of its own, but only time will tell how that works out.

The 2024 Porsche Cayenne Debuts A Dramatic Dashboard Upgrade

For infotainment, the main screen is a 12.3-inch display that shows your navigation and music, similar to the screen used by the Taycan. Below that, Porsche put the climate controls. In a move that will make plenty of old-school gearheads happy, Porsche used physical buttons to control the A/C and heat.
Front-seat riders can enjoy an optional 10.9-inch feature on the passenger side of the cabin. That screen can stream media or allow the passenger to act as the vessel’s navigator. According to Porsche, a filter on the screen prevents the driver from getting distracted. Onboard Siri functionality can also bear the load if necessary. The interior also features a litany of USB-C chargers that can keep devices topped up and a wireless and cooled charging pad that can deliver up to 15 watts.
According to Porsche, the 2024 Cayenne will be fully revealed on April 18th.
