And with no hybrid assistance whatsoever, just massive turbos, a ton of PSI, and tons of engineering put into the engine. And, you get that 1,064hp on 93 octane. Just bonkers. Like, the C8 ZR1 makes the C7 ZR1’s 755hp at around 4700 RPM… Like, GM was out for blood with the Z06. Here, they’re legitimately trying to kill every other performance manufacturer lol.
Yes Koenigsegg is the only V8 Mass produced that I can think of that performs better with normal ⛽ and smaller displacement of 5.0l to GM 5.5l 1280hp to 1064hp both rev high as well so great to see definitely for a turbo car
Even alongside the Apollo IE, Koenigsegg Agera XS, and all the Bugattis parked at the Inn at Spanish Bay, my favorite car I saw there today was the C8 Corvette ZR1. I did not expect to see that car there today.

Speed Phenom Absolutely incredible Video I think it's awesome that Chad from Chevrolet talked to you about the All New C8 ZR1 ZTK and let all of those Hyper Car owners hesr their new American Competition and I can't wait to see it in action
I never was a Corvette guy, but man do I love these new Corvettes! This one looks amazing! I'd take it in red or orange. I'll say this too, one thing I admire about Corvette is that is doesn't chase its past like every other American sports/muscle car and have a silly retro design. I'd love to have this car.
Great job young man ! Here's a thought on the ZR1, any turbo car has to have mufflers with non chambers so there won't be any resistance, I would imagine a set of aftermarket cats the beast would come alive on the sound. Since the manifolds and turbo is one peice. GM you did it Baby !
This ZR1 must have some serious computer nannies to hook up all of that power. I still haven’t heard a ZO6 in person yet and I understand that the twin turbos muffle the exhaust note that much more BUT for me I still like the regular V8 roar that’s in the Eray. I can’t imagine how squirrelly the ZR1 will be when in the wet…
Amazing content! Can't wait to see you whip this thing around the track!! Just to be clear, the new Lamborghini Temberino is a flat plane crank v8 turbo with 3 electric motors and ONLY puts out 900+ HP so that goes to tell you how powerfully the ZR1 is.. jist imagine if Chevy outs electric motors in hr ZR1!! Dare I say 1200HP!!
The Zora is rumored to be coming with 1500+hp on pump gas.. The same people who were correct and actually understated with what they were predicting the zr1 would have are saying that now about the Zora.. So they could be correct..
They newly revealed Lamborghini that replaces the Huracan makes less power than this car with 3 batteries. Chevy really just nuked the game. The head to head battles are going TO BE HISTORIC
Yea Chevy definitely dropped a bomb with this one and we shouldn’t necessarily compare the temerario to the zr1 as it’s the top corvette and should be compared to the revuelto
I've been watching the Corvette since '63 Bonanza Cheverlot commercials. My sister's would get mad at me if I got on front of the TV when Little Joe was on. I would get even more upset with them if they got in front of the TV during the GM commercials, especially if they were showing the 1963 Corvette. My oldest brother bought a 1968 Corvette, 427, I think his had 390 HP. Black with red interior. It was a beautiful car! After the mid- late 70's government mandated choke down and pollution crap, I thought, well, we'll never see the HP of earlier year Corvettes. Never in a million year's did I envision that GM would one day blow the old Vette HP completely away! I don't recall exactly what the Corvette got choked down to, maybe 185-200? At it's low. Now look at it, 1064 HP! Wow, unreal. Great job to GM and the whole Corvette team! Wow. Thanks. John.
215! I think a parachute is in order both for car but driver! Racing harness should be an option. First enthusiast hands on review! Good job. This car has reached “heightened Insanity,” a good couple of words you are free to splash around in future reviews!
The carbon wheels are the best looking in their category imo. Look at Lambo's new carbon wheels and how they pale in comparison in terms of looks and design.
When that car hits the market the markups will easily enter supercar territory… possibly might be the only car with markups in this economy! And that’ll be driven by its sheer exclusivity…
C8 ZR1 is sick. No two ways about it. GM absolutely killed it
The new Generation Porsche GT2 Will destroy it though.
@@batreview9600The GT2 is going to be at least $350k. Want to compare this to the Lamborghini Revuelto as well? GM is at the top for 200k
@@batreview9600 Any news concerning its arrival?
@@batreview9600 how the hell would you know? They haven’t replaced any numbers on it yet, you’re just fantasizing
@@haydenpresson4782 Not with the markups on them 200k is more like 400k with a 200k markup.
I’m still trying to get the fact that this car makes over 1,000hp wrapped around my mind. GM really knocked it out of the park with the Zr1.
And with no hybrid assistance whatsoever, just massive turbos, a ton of PSI, and tons of engineering put into the engine. And, you get that 1,064hp on 93 octane. Just bonkers. Like, the C8 ZR1 makes the C7 ZR1’s 755hp at around 4700 RPM…

That is exactly what I said to my friend a couple weeks ago.
Not just imagine what the upcoming Zora will do to the supercar market.. Rumored to be coming with 1500+hp on pump gas...

And some idiot will put a blower on it & give it 1250hp!

You may want to have some medical professionals look you over. Lead poisoning is very dangerous.
@@jasonbirch1182 cry more, fanboy who owns none of those other cars
That's only because it's new. Once everyone has one this won't be the case.
its kinda crazy how well the zr1 fits in with the hyper and supercars
Because it is one 🙂

The split window coupe & new carbon wheels just add the finishing touches of majesty to this Magnificent rendition of ZR1 !!!!!!!
Beautiful monster 😊 Wow. Wish my old man was here to see it . Thanks for sharing 🎉 my friend.
It’s one of them things that’s hard to believe and I’m sure he’d be super impressed!
@@drummerdoingstuff5020 Thank you ! I'm sure he would've been speechless. C.8 is a masterpiece IMO. 🚘🔥✌️😎
First thing I noticed when it was baking up was the tribute to the split window
0:54 We are not going to ignore Baby in the room! The stunning Cadillac Sollei!
Yep, saw that too!
That's the one for me! I don't need over a thousand hp & no one else does either but its cool.
Only old people would pay attention to a Cadillac 😂😂

Thanks for sharing. Love it.

They hate how little it takes to make us happy.

Way to go GM!
What a lucky guy to be a part of this release
Your in-depth Corvette knowledge is amazing.
Austin, you rock! That thing is beautiful and sounds amazing. Peace
Damn! This dude is a ZR 1 expert already!
Kiddo you really settled into a great interviewer….you are a natural! Good stuff here!👊🏼

That is a really cool vette thanks tadge
simply an incredible work of art kudo's to the engineering/design team over at Chevy for bringing this to fruition!
an absolute beauty
Thanks for the revs. Keep us posted on the ZR1. You need to go for a ride with one of those guys
Great job young man ! Here's a thought on the ZR1, any turbo car has to have mufflers with non chambers so there won't be any resistance, I would imagine a set of aftermarket cats the beast would come alive on the sound.
Since the manifolds and turbo is one peice.
GM you did it Baby !
The C7 ZR1 did over 214 in low wing configuration.
Easily too. If the ZTK equipped C8 ZR1 can do 215, then the low wing should easily be able to do 220+.
@@danieldickerson4838the ZTK ZR1 could do 207mph we don't know if it could do 215mph yet. The base model could definitely do 215+ tho
@@aaronvector4750The ZTK car already did 212mph comfortably.
Chevy is saying that the zr1 with the wing can do the 215mph and the test run they did they likely weren’t pushing the zr1 to the limits
I thought it did 212 mph.
This ZR1 must have some serious computer nannies to hook up all of that power. I still haven’t heard a ZO6 in person yet and I understand that the twin turbos muffle the exhaust note that much more BUT for me I still like the regular V8 roar that’s in the Eray.

Great vlog Austin!!👍🏽
Great video Shad & Austin!
My Dream Car Great Interview Very Informative !
The Z06 is a screamer and ZR1 have a deep tone with the crackles and bang, went ab exhaust it’s going to sound so violent
The new king just showed up!!! GM just gave the middle finger to the supercar world!!!
Great job on the interview! Love the car its amazing!
Such a beautiful car.💯💪😍
That thing is a BEAST!
Thanks!!
Nice to see both yellows next to each other. Competition yellow is a far better color. The ZR1 is a masterpiece from Chevrolet.
I'm not a convertible fan but that's ZR1 convertible is sick!
Great to see Shad driving it!
Gm simply crushed it!!
The next Lightning Lap just got more interesting. I want to see a repeat of the duel from 2019. GT2 RS vs C8 ZR1 vs 675 LT.
Love it , bro thank you for sharing
That 720s in the next parking space was sweating profusely when the ZR1 started. The king is back
I want one. I had a C4 ZR-1. It was awesome. I currently have a C7 Z06 which I love. Maybe someday I'll get a C8 ZR1. Thanks for the video!
Comfortably over 215 😮

Complete takedown of the exotics by Chevy.
The more I see and hear of this car the more I like it.
Awesome thx for the excellent video
What a nice car! Absolutely like it!
Just AWESOME
This I will buy. So glad i passed on the Z06
Those chrome wheels were sick
Yea I NEED one
Good job!!
Guy driving that zr1 has the dream job!
Man it looks amazing ❤
GM is killing it!!!!!!!!
Aggressive af🔥 W chevy🤘🤘
Beautiful
I love the blue
My dream car right there
What a beauty
Proud to see you succeed my guy
with the new 1064 hp ZR-1 the Corvette is now more "Lamborghini" then even "Lamborghini" (ref: the Temerario).
This is insane 😮
Best Corvette ever made and there have been many aweseom 'vettes made in the past.
I find it hilarious that the chevy rep driving it is wearing ferrari glasses haha
from the front in this shade of "Yellow" it reminds me of the 69/70 L88 ..
The “well-mannered” characteristic of the new ZR1 is reminiscent of the C7 ZR1, which was much more refined than the C7 Z06 in every aspect.
I wonder if DDE came over to take a look 😂😂.. zr1 is will be a beast

Bring the
Nurburgring 😂❤😂
I happened to like turbos and muff so win win
No Wing for me looks cleaner without it to me plus don't limit my top speed
Corey Feldman back at it
Competition yellow is a old color option on the C5 vette. I recognized that color asap.
Its amazing to think that GM actually allowed Tadge to make this car. He must have some amazing skills of persuasion.
Not generally a Yellow Fan, but that Competition Yellow... might be it.
Really? A right hand drive version? I heard they would only be doing them in LHD??? Any confirmation on that?
Looks a lot better than the hurrican replacement
I love the split window.But man I don't like the looks of the hood😮
My neighbor got to have a red one for the week i got to ride in it thing is beyond insanely fast!
Take my check NOW!
I hate how much I love it.
Sounds so good, considering it's a turbo car... 🙃
Austin, get that beast, will you?
I currently drive a 2021 911 Turbo S and I'm not sure which car should I upgrade to: C8 ZR1 or Lamborghini Temerario !?!?!?! Decisions Decisions 🤔🤔
