Chevy built a very capable track car but guess what that's not what people want and the sales prove it. They spent all their time making sure this generation would be a corner carver but forgot to make it an actual car that people would want to use as a daily driver and it shows with the lousy trunk space, poor visibility, and virtually no leg room for anyone in the rear seat.

Stop light to stop light a Hellcat won't beat a ZL1 as they come from the factory. ZL1 launches better due to less weight (600+ lbs) and better weight distribution. A GT500 might tie a ZL1 0-60 (i.e., stop light to stop light), as long as they don't use the silly "launch control" with a 1 second delay - then they will get walked by the ZL1 badly.
Not for nothing, but the Mustang has horrid rear space room as well. I've owned both (2018 GT), they are pretty similar back there. FWIW, the Camaro is the physically smallest of the three. Compared to the Mustang it is shorter in height (~1.5"+) and ~1" narrower, and has a longer dash to axle ratio than the others as well, meaning the occupant area starts slightly further back in the car. All that adds up to a slightly smaller interior compared to the Mustang. The Challenger is massive, in comparison.
