The ZR1 is the top-of-the-line 7th-gen Corvette and the last of the front-engine Corvettes (as far as we know). It is powered by a supercharged 6.2-liter LT5 V8 producing 755 horsepower and 715 lb-ft of torque. The C7 ZR1 travels from 0 to 60 mph in 2.85 seconds and can reach a top speed of 212 mph. It is available with either a 7-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic gearbox. The front end is completely different from the lesser C7 Vettes to allow for increased airflow through the vehicle. There is a large cutout in the hood for the top of the engine to fit through it. Its available high rear wing can supply up to 950 pounds of downforce. A low rear wing is also available as an option with the ZR1. The C7 ZR1's cabin is very similar to those of the Stingray, Grand Sport, and Z06 in terms of its general layout. Touchscreen infotainment, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and in-vehicle Wi-Fi come standard. The example above is outfitted with the ZTK Performance Package, containing more carbon fiber than any other GM vehicle. The flagship C7 Vette carries a starting price of $121,995. Overall, the C7 ZR1 is one of the most impressive Corvettes ever made. I love the way it looks and sounds and can only imagine how unbelievable it is to drive.
