First Look At The 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1

The 2025 C8 Corvette ZR1 boasts a twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter V8 engine, delivering an astonishing 1,064 horsepower and 800 lb-ft of torque. This makes it the most powerful production Corvette ever, surpassing even the legendary C7 ZR1.

Equipped with cutting-edge aerodynamics, carbon ceramic brakes, and a refined suspension system, it delivers exceptional performance and handling. The ZR1 features a bold, aggressive design with wide fenders, large air intakes, and a prominent rear wing, all hinting at its track-focused nature. The new “Hysteria” purple color adds to its striking appearance.

Despite its focus on speed and power, the ZR1 offers a comfortable, upscale interior with premium materials and advanced tech. Options include a high-end sound system, navigation, and a head-up display. Joe Raiti from Raiti’s Rides on YouTube took a first look at the highly anticipated 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 at the 2024 Miami Auto Show.
