2025 Chevy Corvette ZR1 Summary Points

The 2025 Corvette ZR1 features a 5.5-liter twin-turbo DOHC flat-plane crank V8 known as the LT7.

Small Block Gemini Architecture from the LT6 engine program served as inspiration for the twin-turbo LT7.

Optional ZTK Performance Package incorporates stiffer springs with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires.

The 2025 Chevy Corvette ZR1 has undergone extensive testing and development at Road Atlanta, Virginia International Raceway, and the Nürburgring.

Long Live The King

Chevrolet dubs the 2025 Corvette ZR1 the King of the Hill, a fitting title for America’s ultimate performance car. The title has its roots in the 1990 C4 Corvette ZR-1, a car that, as described by Hagerty Drivers Club Magazine, trended into Ferrari Testarossa and Lamborghini Countach territory with its LT5 V8, ZF six-speed transmission, and FX3 Bilstein adaptive suspension.  
Fast forward 35 years, and it’s a turbocharged LT7 engine, an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission, and an incredible ZTK package for the track.
