The all-new 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 is already proving to be one of the fastest production cars in the world. General Motors President Mark Reuss recently took it for a spin at a test track in Germany, where it hit an incredible top speed of 233 mph. No other production vehicle priced under $1 million has reached this level of speed. The new Corvette ZR1 consistently surpassed 230 mph during multiple test runs, setting a new record for American sports cars.
Fastest GM Car Ever Built
The 2025 Corvette ZR1 is equipped with a 5.5-liter, twin-turbocharged flat-plane crank V8 engine that generates a staggering 1,064 horsepower and 828 lb-ft of torque. GM claims this power allows the ZR1 to run a quarter-mile in less than 10 seconds. The 8,000 rpm redline adds to the excitement of driving this performance machine. An eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission helps deliver smooth and rapid acceleration. A carbon fiber aero package creates 1,200 pounds of downforce, enhancing the car's already superb handling.
More Than Just Performance
While the new Corvette ZR1's speed is record-breaking, its design is equally impressive. The iconic split rear window makes a return, which also aids engine cooling. Several stunning exterior colors are available, including Competition Yellow Tintcoat Metallic and Torch Red. With 20-inch front wheels and 21-inch rear wheels, the ZR1 has a bold, aggressive stance.
The interior is designed for drivers and features premium amenities like a unique performance steering wheel. Available upgrades include a 14-speaker Bose Performance Series audio system, Nappa leather seats, and a curb-view front camera.
