Corvette Performance: Ranking Every Corvette by Their Quarter Mile Acceleration Times
CorvSport has always been the number one resource for all your Corvette specs and other data and now we finally got around to compiling all the 0-60 mph mile data for every Corvette model we could find. Below we pulled together all the acceleration times for specific models and put them into a searchable, interactive table. We also created a chart for those of us who like to see things visually.
As you can see the Corvette just gets faster and faster every year and in terms of Corvette 0-60 mph times, it has consistently chipped away at those times to now be under 3 seconds in the sprint from standstill to 6- mph. The Corvette is still such a performance bargain even as its price has steadily increased, pulling off acceleration times that blow the mind.
The following is a comprehensive list of the Corvette’s 0-60 mph times by year.

you times are so far off there is no way a c7 does 0-60 in 3.0 you boomer. slow car
Sorry dude, but you’re way off. The C7 is that fast in the package listed. Stick to fords…
I’m sure you’ve never heard of special editions .. Mr roush… You’re just a tad upset you’re crustang has no hope of ever gaining enough traction to do a real 0 to 60
I own Both, and the C6- Zr1 is faster especially after 1/4 mile, it walks away from the Z06 at higher speeds.. Corvette Z06 C7 0-60, quarter mile, specs. 0-60 mph. 3.4 seconds. 0-100 kph. 3.7 seconds. Quarter mile. 11.9 s @ 126 mph. Top speed. 315 kph / 196 mph.
Corvette C6 ZR1 0-60, quarter mile, specs 0-60 mph 3.3 seconds 0-100 kph 3.6 seconds Quarter mile 11.1 @130 Top speed 330 kph 205 mph
When it came out in 2015, the C7 Corvette Z06 didn’t only become the GM’s fastest production car, but the fastest production Corvette ever produced. The new C7 Z06 doesn’t just beat the record set by the old C6 ZR1; it chews it up and spits it out with a blistering 0 to 60 time of just 2.95 seconds
I would like to see the C9 incorporate an advanced KERS to keep up with Tesla, and the 2.0 second plaid model s (9.2 quarter) . A KERS corvette with some aerodynamic flexible down force to help achieve a 2.2 0-60 or faster, and a sub 9 quarter with 20-27mpg efficiency jump.
Only way to rate Corvette stock speed is by ,Year / engine combination ,Not,C_ whatever .C designation is for Bodies ,Not chassis /engine combinations ,Sick of this C_ crap , as Definition of Corvettes.
Correct.
Andrew, go shave your balls you fart. Eat a dirty booty hole.
Look ahead and you will see servo’s on the front in the C8 ZR-1 from what I’ve heard.
