I am glad you said it. The ZR1 is an incredible accomplishment in automotive engineering. WOW! To do all this, at this price point and with a warranty on pump gas. Again, WOW! Great job with the videos. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone!
@@Holt0216that is a great value, though that is its party piece. This ZR1 should not only be able to nearly keep up, but also perform in all matter of other performance metrics just as impressively.
@ How many Tesla Astroturfers are there out there? Seriously, this is getting old. Anybody who could afford a $200,000 Corvette could afford an $85,000 Model S if they wanted to. So what exactly do you get out of this stupidity? Yes it is fast and straight line. No, it is not fast on a track. This Corvette would beat it to death on any track, which is its purpose. It’s not an a family hauler, it is a focused track car. The model S is not.
Rarely do we get widow makers anymore, everything is AWD with hybrids and safety systems to save the driver from any reasonable risk they might encounter. This car is freakin nuts, rear wheel drive and 1000hp on tap. Can’t wait to see it down the 1/4 mile.
E85 Demon 170 best 0-60 on the street: 3.5 seconds with 6.2 pushrod and 150 mph top speed . 93 oct Chevy ZR1 0-60 on the street: 2.3 seconds with 5.5 liter DOHC and 200 mph top speed. End results: congrats Chevy 🎉.
Not really coal is not gas and natural gas is not the same gas you put in yiur car also gas power is kinda slow now if you want speed electric is still king
A stock vette can now match the 1/4 mile times of my old bosses 57 chevy's with 540 big blocks on race fuel back in 2002. He'd street drive them to work even, with the parachute on back still even. Lol
Love how he states that the Demon 170 only achieves its numbers on very special conditions, while not even showing a video of the C8 Zr1 doing these numbers at all.
OMG! 2.3 seconds to 60 would be amazing if this was a decade ago. I fail to see how people still care about 0-60 times as much as they do when EV’s ruined that whole party a while ago.
ev dudes are so lame all you do is go trash ev to trash ev bragging abt "performance" and ditching them before you have to pay that 20k fee to replace the two duracells that power it
@@samspade8830yeah, anything above 500 horsepower sounds like a waste if manually shifted by a human, so slow.. Cars don't have fast shifting sequential manuals like motorcycles do, so well have to settle for an auto.
I mean, of course? It should be obvious that you won’t be hitting 2.3 seconds on a non prepped surface in the ZR1; this is no different from any high horsepower RWD super car.
LOL, even the Stingray can do that on the street all day long. I don't know how many UA-cam channels I have seen that do that. The C8 Corvette is one the most consistently easy to launch ICE cars around.
@@Oliver-ft2fq It is not Tesla numbers in the streets. The Plaid will easily hit 60 in around a second faster and also do the 1/4 faster and get to 150mph faster. It's instant full torque at 0rpm with awd and no gears, of course it's gonna be faster.
Where is the car? GM only made 1 car that does 233mph and that is it. No more than 1 and a lot of hype and others call it BS as GM has pushed back its production schedule 3 times. They made the biggest blunder when they allowed China to build the lifters that did nothing more than blow up. Come on guys get it together! Talk a big game on how fast the car goes but no one can seem to buy the car. Even your employees cannot answer the simplest question of what year the car will be, a 2025 or a 2026. I personally thing the project is a bust and the car will never come to light as so much money has been lost on the project. Like the chip to control the turbos. Not built in this country and held captive on a boat in a war and if it reached the Panama Cannel to expedite going through the cannel it cost a million dollars a ton. That is not going to happen. GM built nothing more than a wishful thinking car. Much better off building a Porsche. At least that car exists.
@varqtube They don't weigh as much as people assume, m3p weighs only 100lbs more than a g80 m3 and it is a very track capable car. Zr1 is literally slower than a 4 year old 4800lbs family sedan that is the plaid. Add a wing and a front splitter to it like unplugged performance did and it destroys this car on a track.
@@yusufcanaktas6929the Tesla plaids have been destroyed by boosted modified f-150s so no they don’t win the HP race because you cannot make them faster than what they already are. You can make the Zr1 faster and nobody wants to have an electric subway ride experience like in the EVs.
@Oliver-ft2fq You can absolutely increase the power of a Plaid if Tesla allows it. EVs are power limited by their batteries, you put a higher C rate battery you get more power. We don't have enough 3rd party companies yet. I didn't say 1/4 speed btw, go check out unplugged performance's lap times with the plaid, it smokes everything even in unlimited category with other ICE cars
BECAUSE ITS REAL WHEEL DRIVE 🤦♂️. People are so dim these days. It's not the fact that it can do this number, it's that it can do it without an AWD hybrid/electrified system. It's straight-up brute forcing this 0-60 on its rear tires. Not even a dodge demon 170 gets close to this number on a prepped surface.
I owned a C8 Z06/Z07 for a while. Came from a 911 GT3. Very disappointed in the overall package. The engine is one of the best I’ve ever driven. But the test was a mess. The brakes are mushy. The same brembo brakes on my new Lamborghini. I think it’s programming. Same with the Tremec dual clutch transmission. It hunts it shifts when I didn’t want it to and didn’t shift when I wanted it to. When shifting manually it hunted before shifting. The car tram lines like no other car I’ve ever driven. The screen on the side rattles. The deviated stitching was crooked. All things that didn’t happen in a 911 or my Lamborghini. I’m not going to buy the ZR1 until they fix these other fixable issues.
Power is pointless at this stage. Where is the efficiency? 100yrs and still wasting time and energy on power. This is the reason why progress is key. If they achieved this with high efficiency aka mpg and lower emissions bravi but its 2025. Slower than a 4 door electric vehicle. Next....
Imagine thinking straight line speed really means anything these days. You only need so much to have fun. The rest (most of it) is taking corners and the driving experience. EVs cannot corner and the driving experience is as dull as sitting in line at the DMV.
What’s crazy is it’s rear wheel drive.
No
@007zzzz yes it is
What's crazy is that this isn't even Corvettes final form.....

60-130 is what we use bots use 0-60

Zero corvette ZR1 were tested in this video.
So nice to see it in a different color than yellow!!

I really doubt 2.3 sec but i hope so
In real life…0-60 2.9 sec without roll out ..
1/4 mile 10.1
no☠

Just seen it in person 2 days ago 😮
These numbers are claimed not proven. I just watched the ZR1 Top speed run of 207 mph at the GM Proving grounds, that's not even close to 230.
No, my little 230i is "quick". The ZR1 is FAST!
Its both!
Quick is how long it takes you to get to speed, Fast is how big the number can go on the speedo. The ZR1 does both rather well
@@AutoTrader Agreed. I was just going to say that. The ZR1 is one incredible machine.

@@EK-rr2md Apparently it does matter since most supercars and hypercars today are automatic, or paddle shifting, and sequential manuals.
We need 2000 HP
So it can probably stand a chance against my Plaid at 10% battery
The only stat more impressive is the ADM.
With the ZR-1, all other "hypercars" are overpriced "endless money pits". Driving one of those is like tattooing "L" on the driver's forehead.
lol, then envy is real
I'd rather be seen in a Lambo or Maclaren than a Chevy.
Wait until they put hybrid in it and call it zr zora
🤎🤎🤎😍zr1 my car favorite
So the Zora will be 2.1 sec to 60.
I’m calling them out . My claim on the street will be 10.16 at 146 and 0-60 in 3.0

My base model stingray does 2.8 0-60 reliably on the street so… you’re wrong lol.
They claim these figures were do on pump gas on a non prepped surface
@ Then let’s wait for people to actually start testing them out, yeah?
Why does GM, with it’s limitless resources, settle for the ugliest rearview of any car on the road? I’ll never get that.
Just wait til they add the electric front wheel option like they did in the E-Ray. It will get a sub 2 second time.
Imagine E85 and a tune on a prepped track.
