C8 Corvette Z06 lap time of 7:10.51, same as 2016
This time was set by Christian Gebhardt during sports car testing. The manufacturer's time was 10 seconds faster than the German publication's test. While Chevrolet conducted extensive testing and development on the Corvette Z06 at the Nürburgring Nordschleife, it never actually posted an official lap time at the track. However, thanks to German publication Sport Auto, we now have a good idea of how fast the mid-engine supercar will be on the track. var adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:()}; adpushup.que.push(function() { if (adpushup.config.platform !== "DESKTOP") { adpushup.triggerAd("4d84e4c9 -9937-4f84-82c0-c94544ee6f2a"); } else{ adpushup.triggerAd("6a782b01-facb-45f3-a88f-ddf1b1f97657"); With Christian Gebhardt at the wheel, the Corvette completed a lap of the track in 7 minutes and 10.51 seconds. The time was recorded over a shortened distance of 20.6 kilometers rather than the full 20.832 kilometers that the automaker mainly uses for flying laps. So, how does this compare to the competition?

2025 Rivian R1S will hit 60 mph, on par with the Corvette Z06
The four-motor R1S is also faster than the Lamborghini Urus Performante, Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT and Aston Martin DBX707. The Rivian R1S's four-motor configuration boasts 1,025 horsepower and 1,198 pound-feet of torque. Motor Trend says the 2025 model will have a 0-60 mph (96 km/h) time of 2.6 seconds. It also conquered the quarter mile quicker than a Lamborghini Urus. For years, SUVs were never really considered fast or fun to drive. Then Porsche broke the mold with the Cayenne, and more have followed. Now, Rivian may have just set a new high bar with the 2025 R1S, which has a quad-motor setup that delivers 1,025 horsepower and 1,198 pound-feet of torque. A new independent test proves it's one of the fastest production cars (not just SUVs) ever built. It accelerates from 0 to 60 mph (96 km/h) in 2.6 seconds, the same as the new C8 Corvette Z06 and E-Ray. It's quicker than the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, McLaren…
Corvette Z06 and Grand Sport | Window Film, Ceramic
Cleaning and protecting your car has never been easier. Once you pick up your car from the dealer, you simply bring it into our shop and let us do all the work. It's that simple. Last week, we took delivery of this pair of C7 Corvettes for a complete paint restoration and protection. Both vehicles had only a few miles on them since they were picked up from the dealer and needed the ultimate protection before hitting the road. Just like every detail, everything starts with paint correction. We made sure our canvas was perfect before installing XPEL paint protection film, applying window tint, and coating the car with a durable ceramic coating. Both cars were equipped with full front clip and rocker panel XPEL wraps - an absolute necessity for a car like this. The low-profile and aggressive stance meant we needed to protect high-impact areas from damage from stone chips and road debris. Next up are ceramic coatings.…
