A new Corvette is on the horizon, one that promises to deliver more than 1,000 horsepower. Now, Chevrolet has also revealed the price for this monster.
According to a press release, the 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 will have an MSRP of $174,995 (including $1,695 DFC) for the 1LZ coupe. The 1LZ hardtop convertible will be $184,995 (including DFC).
The second trim level for the new ZR1 is the 3LZ. The coupe model starts at $185,995 (including DFC). The convertible starts at $195,995 (including DFC).
What is the difference? The 3LZ adds several premium options not available on the base 1LZ. This includes a 14-speaker Bose Performance sound system and heated and ventilated Napa leather GT2 or Competition Sport seats with power lumbar/wing adjust.
According to Chevrolet, all ZR1 models come with the following features:
- Hand-assembled 1,064 horsepower 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 engine
- Visible carbon fiber roof
- Carbon ceramic brakes
- Performance data recorder
- Carbon fiber ground effects and side intakes
The Corvette ZR1 delivers ridiculous power
Corvette fans know the price of the new ZR1, but what will they get? The answer, according to Chevrolet, is power and performance.
The automaker says that the new ZR1 is the fastest, quickest, and most powerful Corvette ever made. Chevrolet says that the 1,064-horsepower car delivers a top speed of 233 mph and can go zero to 60 mph in 2.3 seconds. It has 828 lb.-ft. of torque.
General Motors President Mark Reuss hit this mark of 233 mph last October during a trip to Germany. He controlled the 2025 Corvette ZR1 at the High-Speed Oval Track at ATP Automotive Testing Papenburg and reached high speed with the standard chassis and aero package.
The new Corvette has an optional aero package that adds an aggressive, high-downforce rear wing, front dive planes, and a tall hood spoiler. It features underbody strakes to increase downforce.
“ZR1 is an example of design and engineering excellence, one where we push the boundaries of what’s possible in terms of performance,” said Scott Bell, vice president of global Chevrolet, in a statement.
“It was important for us to stay true to Corvette’s promise of a vehicle whose world-class capabilities completely outmatch its price.”
