The 2025 Chevy Corvette ZR1 is the most powerful Corvette ever, and the quickest-accelerating, and the fastest American production car ever, possessing 1,064 horsepower, going from zero to 60 mph in 2.3 seconds, and recently hitting 233 mph.

It has many of the characteristics of a hypercar, in other words, which has always been part of its appeal: through history, the Corvette has been an extremely powerful machine sold at prices less than you might pay for similarly powered supercars from Europe. The 2025 Corvette ZR1 is no different, and Chevy said on Thursday that it would start at $174,995, making it the most expensive Corvette ever, too. But Chevy also pointed out that the 2025 Corvette ZR1 costs less than the Porsche 911 GT3 RS,, the McLaren 765LT, and the Lamborghini Revuelto, which start at $241,300, $382,500, and $608,358, according to Chevy.

Chevy says that it will start accepting orders for the 2025 Corvette ZR1 in February, with the base 1LZ coupe starting at $174,995, and an extra $10,000 or $184,995 for the 1LZ hardtop convertible version. Standard features inclued the twin-turbo V8 which makes 1,064 horsepower; a carbon fiber roof, carbon ceramic brakes, and carbon fiber ground effects; and a performance data recorder to track one’s driving feats on the track.

WATCH

The 3LZ version of the car starts at $185,995, and $195,995 for the convertible version, and for that you get extras like heated front leather seats, more leather elsewhere in the interior, heated side mirrors, a wireless phone charger, shift paddles made from carbon, and a 14-speaker Bose sound system, which is four more speakers than on the 10-speaker base model Bose sound system. Performance enhancements include an “aggressive, high-downforce rear wing, front dive planes, and a tall hood spoiler,” in addition to underbody strakes for even more downforce.
Many, if not most, buyers will likely opt for those options but both prices come in comfortably below Chevy’s perceived competitors in Europe, who may not even see themselves as competitors at all.
