Chevrolet closed out the seventh-generation Corvette with its most powerful and advanced production model to date: the C7 ZR1. With over 750 hp and extensive performance upgrades, its desirability remains strong—even after the debut of the mid-engine C8—thanks to its low production numbers of under 3,000 units.
The ZR1 is powered by the LT5 6.2-liter V8 that delivers 755 hp and 715 lb-ft of torque through a more efficient, intercooled supercharger that offers 52% more displacement than the Z06’s LT4. It also features GM’s first dual-fuel-injection system with both direct and port injection. A carbon-fiber “halo” and hood cutout visually showcase the supercharger. Buyers could choose a seven-speed Tremec manual or an eight-speed automatic.
A redesigned front fascia with larger inlets and diffusers improves cooling and aerodynamics. Two aero setups were available: a standard low wing for maximum top speed—around 215 mph—and an optional high wing included in the ZTK Track Performance Package. The ZTK package adds a carbon-fiber-tipped front splitter, Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires, and dedicated chassis and Magnetic Ride Control tuning.
This 2019 ZR1 coupe currently listed on Bring a Trailer was built for the Canadian market, later imported to the U.S., and now shows 6k miles. Finished in Sebring Orange Tintcoat over Jet Black leather, it features the supercharged LT5 paired with a seven-speed manual and an electronic limited-slip differential.
Equipment includes the ZTK package, 19″/20″ 10-spoke wheels, carbon-ceramic brakes, Magnetic Ride Control, a removable carbon-fiber roof panel, xenon headlights, a rear wing, GT bucket seats, a backup camera, a head-up display, and a Bose audio system.
