Corvette ZR1X Revealed: A 1,250-HP Hybrid Monster Redefining Performance
Chevrolet has taken the wraps off its most extreme Corvette yet — the all-new ZR1X. Just weeks after the debut of the blistering 1,064-horsepower ZR1, the ZR1X emerges as a hybrid hypercar that pushes America’s sports car legacy to unprecedented limits. Packing a combined output of 1,250 horsepower and all-wheel drive, the ZR1X rockets from 0 to 60 mph in under two seconds, solidifying its place among the fastest street-legal vehicles ever made in the United States.
The ZR1X is a fusion of two recent Corvette milestones: the turbocharged ZR1 and the electrified E-Ray. By integrating the ZR1’s heavily upgraded twin-turbo V8 engine with a more powerful version of the E-Ray’s electric drive system, Chevrolet has engineered a vehicle that not only dominates in straight-line speed but also embraces the future of hybrid performance. The ZR1X retains the aggressive aerodynamic styling and track-ready design language of the ZR1, with enhancements that reflect its heightened capabilities.
With this latest addition, the Corvette lineup now spans a spectrum that begins with the $70,000 Stingray and climbs through the hybrid E-Ray and track-focused Z06, culminating in the ZR1X — a no-compromise hybrid supercar expected to eclipse the ZR1’s $175,000 price tag. It’s not just a new flagship for the Corvette brand, but a bold statement from Chevrolet that electrified performance can be just as raw, thrilling, and distinctly American as anything that’s come before it.
