Watch the new C8 Corvette ZR1 take a run up to over 200 mph at Milford Proving Ground.
Chevrolet's latest Corvette, the C8-generation ZR1, is also its fastest. The ultimate GM supercar boasts a headlining 1064 horsepower from a twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter V-8, enough to push the car well over 200 mph. A video shared with Road Track by GM shows that the car can roar past that number with relative ease.This on-board video is from a run at GM's proving grounds. It shows a mile and a half of straight-line running, from a rolling start under 20 mph to a peak speed of 204 mph.
GPS data in the recording shows that the car hits 190 mph in under a mile, then soars past 204 mph half a mile later. Immense straight-line performance does not just end with acceleration, though. 15.7-inch front and 15.4-inch rear brake rotors help the car decelerate at an equally impressive rate. GM says that the car can go from 80 mph to 200 and back down to 80 in just 24.
