In 19+ they refreshed the dash cluster a bit too.

Performance wise, nothing. Visual wise, what was mentioned previously.

2017 and some early 2018 ZL1s have oil pump issues.

Can you guys explain what is a track package?
I notice a rear wing like a viper on them.
Is it designed for road coarse?
Does it have any performance advantages?
I see it’s a 7500 option.

1LE is the track package which is just that... made for the track. Solid bushing and DSSV dampers with adjustable camber and aero like the carbon fiber high wing and track tires that will not last long on the street. You also lose the rear view camera. 1LE only comes in manual for 17-18 models. If you want the A10 transmission which is an awesome option you would have to get a 2019 -2020 for the ZLE.

The A10 trans in the ZL1 is also a big step up from the other V8 models. It's a 10L90 versus a 10L80 and tuned more aggressively.

All 1LEs come with a flat black wrap on the hood.

Performance wise it's made for the road track and definitely not a drag strip car.

Performance Data Recorder (PDR) is a great option on any of the ZL1s

Also, 2019 was upgraded with Infotainment 3 and the Recaro seats recline a little further back.

Ventilated and heated seats are also automatic by sensing your body heat in the 2019+ which is nice.

No real significant differences between the 2017-2020 ZL1s except the ZL1 1LE that Mike Lee replied about. I would look for a 2018-2019 used ZL1 because the 2020s would still be pricey even though used. If you can afford a new 2020 and can find a good deal on one I would consider buying new but if you are like me I couldn’t afford new so I bought my used 2017 last March 2019 and couldn’t be happier. Some 2017s and 2018s have defective oil pumps that the later years don’t have but now the 2021s could have bad valve springs.

Mlee bad azz
Impulse I had the Demon for over 2 years.
Paid MSRP 90k every option.
I had a 2015 Hellcat in 2014 before that.
The high Water Mark arrived to sell it so I did.
Now it’s time to try a ZL1.
I actually raced a ZL1 from a 40 mph roll in the Demon about 6 months ago.
I honestly thought it would be a track meet but the ZL1 stayed on my hip until about 110 mph then the 840hp just started to pull away.
I was shocked to be honest they were that fast.
I am not looking to race the ZL1 or add any mods. Just want to drive it.
Now it’s just finding one at the right price and color.
Pretty impressive what they do on a road coarse.
Glad to be here
Greg I am like you. I don’t want to buy new.
I would not mine a 2017.
I see the tail light difference
