The 2019 Corvette ZR1 was a remarkable achievement, designed to create a super-car version of the Corvette that would push the brand to new heights in power output, track performance, and technological advancements. It represented the pinnacle of the Corvette’s sixty-six-year production history.
Under the hood, the 2019 ZR1 was equipped with Chevrolet’s exclusive LT5 supercharged engine, a 6.2L V-8 that continued the Corvette’s impressive supercharging legacy. Rated at an SAE-certified 755 horsepower (563 kW) and 715 lb-ft (969 Nm) of torque, the LT5 delivered the highest engine output ever seen in a Chevrolet production vehicle.
The increase in performance was largely attributed to the new, more efficient inter-cooled supercharger system, boasting 52 percent more displacement than the previous generation Zo6’s LT4 supercharger. The 2019 Corvette ZR1 also featured GM’s first-ever dual-fuel-injection system, utilizing both primary direct injection and supplemental port injection.
This specific 2019 ZR1 is a one-owner vehicle, with an elegant black-on-black color scheme, and it has traveled less than 400 miles since its delivery to Courtesy Chevrolet in Phoenix. Among its desirable options, the car boasts the track-focused $2,995 ZTK Track Performance Package, which includes the Performance Ride and Handling Suspension, front P285/30ZR19 and rear P335/25ZR20 Michelin Pilot Super Sport Cup 2 summer-only tires, an adjustable high-wing spoiler, and specific front splitter end caps, generating an impressive 950 pounds of downforce.
The ZR1 is also equipped with the $10,000 3ZR Preferred Equipment Group, offering a custom leather-wrapped interior, BOSE Premium Sound System with Sirius XM satellite radio, power telescoping steering wheel, heated seats, GPS, and other luxurious amenities.
Chevrolet produced a limited number of ZR1 coupes and convertibles, making this delivery mileage 2019 Corvette ZR1 Coupe a rare and sought-after opportunity for any collector or enthusiast. This C7 Corvette ZR1 will be open for bids on Broad Arrow Auctions’ Monterey event that will run from August 17-18.
