The 1064 HP, 215-Plus MPH 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1: All the Details with Tadge Juechter
Read more:
The 2025 Chevy Corvette ZR1 has a 1064-hp twin-turbo V-8, making it by far the most powerful Vette to ever reach production.
The ZR1’s LT7 engine also makes it the first turbocharged Corvette, and its myriad upgrades distinguish it from the Z06’s naturally aspirated LT6.
With an estimated top speed of 215-plus mph, an available aero kit that nets up to 1200 pounds of downforce, and other exotic bits, the C8 ZR1 is set up to slay supercars.
The GM engineers who developed the new C8 Corvette ZR1 said it was obvious early on that they were dealing with something special. During its first drag-strip launch, the rear-drive mid-engined monster roared through the quarter-mile in under 10 seconds. During its first lap at GM’s Milford Proving Grounds, it posted a faster top speed than the previous-gen ZR1. At Germany’s famous Nürburgring racetrack, all four Corvette test drivers eclipsed 200 mph on their first laps. And the firsts don’t stop there. The 2025 Chevy Corvette ZR1 is also the first turbocharged Vette and the first production model to produce 1064(!) horsepower.
