FIRST DRIVE: 1064hp Corvette ZR1 – America’s New 233mph King!

Forget the Corvette being ‘America’s supercar’, in 1064hp ZR1 guise it’s got the potential to be ‘America’s hypercar’! We’re talking more power than a Veyron, a top speed almost on par too – yet all for a $175k sticker price that’s a tenth of that Bugatti. Question is, for all that power, all that speed, is the new 2025 Corvette ZR1 any good to drive?
