The 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 is shaping up to be one of the fastest cars in the world. General Motors President Mark Reuss recently drove it at a test track in Germany, where the ZR1 reached an incredible top speed of 233 mph. No production car under $1 million has reached this kind of speed. During several test runs, the new Corvette ZR1 consistently exceeded 230 mph, setting a new record for American sports cars.
GM's Fastest Car Yet
Powering the 2025 Corvette ZR1 is a 5.5-liter, twin-turbocharged flat-plane crank V8 engine that generates a staggering 1,064 horsepower and 828 lb-ft of torque. According to GM, this power enables the ZR1 to complete the quarter-mile in less than 10 seconds. The car also boasts a thrilling 8,000 rpm redline. An eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission ensures lightning-fast shifts. A carbon fiber aero package provides 1,200 pounds of downforce, improving the ZR1's already impressive handling.
More Than Just Performance
Beyond its performance capabilities, the Corvette ZR1 is also a showstopper in terms of design. The return of the Corvette's signature split rear window enhances engine cooling and gives the car a unique look. Several bold exterior colors are available, including Competition Yellow Tintcoat Metallic and Torch Red. The ZR1 also features 20-inch front wheels and 21-inch rear wheels, giving it an aggressive stance.
Inside, the driver-focused cockpit is packed with premium features. Standard equipment includes a performance steering wheel with options such as a 14-speaker Bose Performance Series sound system, Nappa leather seating, and a curb-view front camera.
