2027 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1: Twin-Turbo Power for Street and Track
If your idea of a perfect weekend involves a road course, the 2027 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 belongs at the top of your list. Lester Glenn Chevrolet in Toms River, NJ, can help you compare it with the electrified Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X. Discover what each one offers in power, technology, and safety before you decide.
Power and Performance
A twin-turbocharged, flat-plane-crank 5.5-liter LT7 V8 sits behind your seat in both models. In the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, it produces 1,064 horsepower and 828 lb-ft of torque, sending power to the rear wheels through an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. When properly equipped, that output carries you from 0-60 mph in as little as 2.3 seconds and through the quarter-mile in 9.6 seconds at 150 mph. The Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X adds a front electric drive unit for a combined 1,250 horsepower and electronic all-wheel drive, cutting your 0-60 mph time to an estimated 1.89 seconds when properly equipped.
Technology Features
Three screens keep information organized around you: a 12.7-inch center display, a 14-inch Driver Information Center, and a 6.6-inch auxiliary touchscreen. The Performance App® shows you real-time horsepower and torque data, so you can see exactly what the V8 is doing on a track day. A wireless charging pad keeps your phone topped off. In the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X, Stealth Mode lets you drive on electric power alone for four to five miles at speeds up to 45 mph, which keeps early-morning departures quiet for your neighbors.
Braking and Aerodynamics
Stopping power matters as much as speed at this level. The Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 also comes standard with carbon-ceramic brakes, while the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X features Chevrolet’s largest Corvette brakes to date: 16.5-inch rotors paired with Alcon® 10-piston front and six-piston rear calipers. An available Carbon Fiber Aero Package for the new Chevrolet Corvette adds a high-wing spoiler, underbody strakes, and dive planes that generate more than 1,200 lbs of downforce for added stability in fast corners.
