The storied Chevrolet Corvette remains a headline-maker in the performance car world. Track testing has shown that the Corvette ZR1X and ZR1 have set new benchmarks as the fastest cars built by an American manufacturer, highlighting Chevy's global competitiveness.
Chevrolet Corvette ZR1
Even with a non-professional racecar driver at the helm, the Corvette ZR1 ran a 6:50.763 lap at the Nürburgring Nordschleife. Power comes from a 5.5L, twin-turbo flat-plane crank V8, rated at 1,064 horsepower and 828 lb-ft of torque.
The new Corvette ZR1 offers exhilarating acceleration, a top speed of 233 mph, and precise handling. The available ZTK Performance Package helps extract peak lap performance and includes several truck-focused upgrades, including Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires and a bespoke aero kit. Despite its track capability, the ZR1 remains street-friendly, featuring a Bose premium sound system, a Rear Camera Mirror, and a high-resolution infotainment screen with Google Built-In as standard.
Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X
The Corvette ZR1X takes performance to an even higher level. With the same engine plus an electric front-drive unit, power rises to 1,250 horsepower. The ZR1X achieved a 6:49.275 lap at the Nürburgring. Its sophisticated eAWD system continuously monitors tire conditions to deliver optimal grip.
