One of our editors was at the four-cylinder and convertible event where ZL1 prototypes showed up. Check out the ride-along video:

10-speed is going to be a fucking rocket ship at the drag strip.

 

[Lead Pipe]

I'm underwhelmed at the appearance. I think they kind of dropped the ball. No doubt it will be a badass car though. Looks like the 8-speed will have a short life.

New raptor and the zl1 share the same trans. How bout that.

The 2017 Ford Raptor and 2017 Camaro ZL1 Use the Same Automatic Transmission

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

Well thats strange....similar major components across manufacturers is pretty rare right?

 

[Bru]

GM and Ford co-developed the transmission.

 

[Bru]

Sometimes they'll use the same transmission from ZF or similar, like the 9-speed FWD cars in FCA, Land Rover and Hondas.

 

[Stink Star]

Well thats strange....similar major components across manufacturers is pretty rare right?

Current 6 speed in GM FWD applications is shared with ford and co-designed

I posted a thread ages ago about the 2018 supposed Mustang Mach 1 that's supposed to get this 10 speed also.

Honestly I like the idea of multiple companies sharing transmissions keep the cost down for everyone. Them building them and for the end user when it fails it wont be a single vehicle setup. In return should be easier and cheaper to fix with more out there.
