Performance Features

The Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 is powered by a 5.5-liter LT7 twin-turbocharged V8 producing 1,064 horsepower and 828 lb-ft of torque. The engine shares its basic architecture with the naturally aspirated LT6 found in the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 but adds twin turbochargers and numerous internal changes engineered specifically for forced induction.

Power reaches the rear wheels through an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 2.3 seconds and complete the quarter-mile in 9.6 seconds at 150 mph when equipped with the ZTK Performance Package.

High-Speed Capability

The Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 is engineered to perform well beyond typical highway speeds. Chevrolet recorded an official 233-mph top speed with the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, making it the fastest production Corvette at the time of its introduction.

Managing that performance requires significant aerodynamic engineering. The available Carbon Fiber Aero Package adds a high-downforce rear wing, front dive planes, and an underbody strake system. When equipped with the available ZTK Performance Package, the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 also receives track-focused suspension tuning and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires.

Technology Features

As a new Chevy vehicle, the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 surrounds you with three configurable displays. A 12.7-inch diagonal center touchscreen works alongside a 14-inch diagonal Driver Information Center and a 6.6-inch diagonal auxiliary touchscreen to provide access to vehicle information and performance data.

The Performance App provides real-time information such as horsepower and torque, while available Performance Data Recorder technology can record video and vehicle data. These systems can be particularly useful when reviewing your performance after time spent on a closed course.
