2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 leads the way from 0 to 100 km/h

The 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 redefines performance standards, earning the title as the fastest production Corvette ever. According to Chevrolet, when equipped with the optional ZTK Performance Package, the ZR1 accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.3 seconds and hits the quarter mile in 9.6 seconds. These numbers were achieved on a non-prep drag race using 93-octane fuel and the high-performance Michelin Pilot Cup 2R tires included in the ZTK package. The ZTK package also adds advanced aerodynamic elements such as a large carbon fiber rear wing, front dive plane and extended hood Gurney lip. These components generate more than 544 kilograms of downforce at the ZR1's top speed of 375 km/h, despite the increased drag. Chevrolet claims that without the ZTK package, the standard ZR1 sprints to 100 km/h in 2.5 seconds.

Diego’s AutoHunter Picks

A little ashamed I realized that this week's AutoHunter picks are two of the most popular brands in the world: Chevrolet and Volkswagen. Both brands were born during the glory days of the mid-1950s, when America seemed unimpeachable. And, I don't think you can go wrong with any of these. Prefer a Corvette? We have two, both new and old. Need practicality? The Chevy truck below shows off the talents of Harley Earl's team, with a bed in the back.
