The 2027 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 3LZ Coupe represents the most luxurious and technologically advanced version of Chevrolet’s flagship supercar. It continues to use the hand-built 5.5-liter twin-turbo LT7 flat-plane V8, delivering 1,064 horsepower and 828 lb-ft of torque, making it the most powerful production Corvette engine ever built.
Performance remains extraordinary, with 0–60 mph acceleration around 2.3 seconds and a top speed up to 233 mph, placing the ZR1 among the fastest rear-wheel-drive production cars in the world.
The 3LZ trim adds premium luxury features over the 1LZ model, including heated and ventilated Napa leather seats, a 14-speaker Bose Performance audio system, leather-wrapped interior surfaces, and sueded microfiber trim, combining track-level performance with grand-touring comfort.
