C8 ZR1 early leak (spoilers inside)
Well, 11.45pm Thursday Sydney time and I'm seeing on social media leaks that are saying 1064hp pure internal combustion only.
I love that Corvette is going balls-out and pushing the envelope like Zora wanted to. https://www.facebook.com/share/r/PGR...ibextid=D5vuiz https://youtu.be/HZbav4ym_NA?si=aQGGdsxjUSlNCB3Q Last edited by AndrewL; 07-25-2024 at 09:57 AM. |

The only problem I see is, they left the hyphen out of ZR-1 😀

Don't forget the 64 AND the additional 37lbf thrust from the exhaust at max output.!!

The best part was the video when Tadge discusses the HP of the ZR1, he proudly states that there's no asterisk with this HP figure lol. No race gas or E85 needed. That's a big middle finger to Dodge.

If the ZORA is in fact produced with the hybrid electric drive it the front wheels it will be more than 1200 at least.

A hell of a machine for Tadge to go out on.
I guess we now need some "Life begins at 215" shirts for the newbie on the block. |
