Recently, Chevrolet released a preview of the new Corvette ZR1 model. This American classic mid-engine sports car is expected to be officially released this summer.
As an anticipated performance model, Chevrolet has not yet released the specific performance parameters of the ZR1, and is expected to leave the suspense until the end. But judging from the news, this car is expected to be equipped with a 5.5L twin-turbocharged engine. This V8 engine with a flat-plane crankshaft is currently used in the naturally aspirated version of the Z06, but the ZR1 is expected to be a supercharged version. In addition, the new car is expected to add an electric motor to the front axle and achieve four-wheel drive.
As a top-performance version, the maximum power output of the old ZR1 reaches 755 horsepower. We expect the ZR1 to reach more than 800 horsepower, and the 0-96km/h time is expected to be within 2 seconds. At the same time, the new car will also adopt many aerodynamic kits and a larger rear wing.
