The 2009 Corvette ZR1 is an all-new American supercar introduced by Chevrolet. This sports car offers stunning looks, balancing performance and good fuel economy at an affordable price. By introducing the brand new ZR1, Chevrolet shows what an American supercar can deliver at a price that trumps exotics that cost two to four times more than this.

This is the fastest and most powerful Corvette ever produced and a unique performer like no other. The Corvette ZR1 offers a performance of 0-60 mph in 0.3 secs, which is quicker than the already-quick Corvette Z06. The 0-100 mph performance is nearly a full second quicker (7 secs) compared to the Z06's 7.9 seconds. It is performance that is equal to or better than many super cars costing substantially more than the ZR1.

The Corvette ZR1 offers a top speed of 205 mph, making it the fastest and most powerful Corvette ever produced. The LS9 engine is matched to a new, stronger six-speed manual transmission and a twin-disc clutch that provides exceptional clamping and maintains an easy clutch effort.

The ZR1's interiors show high-quality materials, craftsmanship, and functionality that support the premium-quality experience promised by the car's performance. The ZR1 gets unique features including Visible carbon-fiber roof, roof bow, rocker extensions and front air splitter, Carbon-fiber domed hood with a window to the supercharger, Unique carbon fiber dual cove front fenders,19-inch front/20-inch rear, 20-spoke wheels on Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires.
