The Chevrolet Corvette remains a benchmark in the high-performance sports car segment. Recent track times have shown that the Corvette ZR1X and ZR1 are now the fastest cars to come from an American manufacturer, demonstrating Chevy's engineering excellence on a global scale.
Chevrolet Corvette ZR1
Even piloted by a non-professional racecar driver, the Corvette ZR1 recorded a 6:50.763 lap at the Nürburgring Nordschleife. Driving this mid-engine supercar is a 5.5L, twin-turbo flat-plane crank V8 rated at 1,064 horsepower and 828 lb-ft of torque.
The new Corvette ZR1 combines thrilling acceleration with a top speed of 233 mph and precision handling. An available ZTK Performance Package helps drivers achieve better lap times and includes several truck-focused upgrades, such as Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires and a unique aero kit. Despite its track-focused capabilities, the ZR1 is comfortable for daily use, offering standard features such as a Bose premium sound system, a Rear Camera Mirror, and a high-resolution infotainment screen with Google Built-In.
Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X
The Corvette ZR1X delivers even more performance. Sharing the same engine but adding an electric front-drive unit, it raises output to 1,250 horsepower. The ZR1X notched a 6:49.275 lap at the Nürburgring. Its advanced eAWD system continuously monitors tire conditions to maximize traction.
