One enthusiast title has declared that the 2025 Corvette ZR1 is "a rolling superlative".

Hold on to your hats: the upgraded lump puts out 1064 horsepower. (Could have squeezed out another two horsepower as a salute to our English friends, if you ask me. But there we are.)

Jethro Bovingdon speaks to camera with his thoughts on the latest iteration of Corvette:

"This car," he says, "has extraordinary numbers attached to it."

Above are opinions published in America and the UK. Now for the Canadian show.

James and Thomas of Throttle House add their thoughts.

"When we learned how absolutely ridiculous this vehicle was, we thought it's a bit too insane," says James. "We weren't ready. You're not ready."




NB: Yes, James is English. But he lives on the left side of the Atlantic. So there.

Would LOVE a C6 variant (my fave generation and one I missed, unfortunately) but this thing is awesome. For me? No, but wow - just amazing in 2024. Gimmie (the C6).

Sounds like a great car, should be good with the tuners.

Which itself is a market not to be underestimated. Without them, many such cars would just disappear into nowhere

Still can't get that excited about C8. The ZR1 is better looking than a Stingray for sure, but that is not saying much. Awesome performance is guaranteed but for that kind of ticket there is competition from prettier albeit not as powerful, competition.
