As reported in Autoevolution, earlier this month, manufacturing advancements led to the suspension of assembly plant tours at the National Corvette Museum. According to John, admin and co-founder of MidEngineCorvetteForum, the assembly line has undergone updates to accommodate Corvette ZR1 production.

The report further shared that John was informed by a reliable source that the Bowling Green factory manufactured its first EX VIN ZR1 on February 13. This implies that the 2025 model year Corvette ZR1 will be arriving soon.

The 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 has been spotted across the U.S. on some occasions. It will be available in the marker in coupe and convertible forms. It is anticipated that, like the previous generation ZR1, the new model would come with a high-downforce specification as part of the ZTK track performance package, however the precise number of rear wing possibilities is still unknown at this time.

As per Motorious report, the C8 ZR1 is rumored to make its official premiere at the National Corvette Museum (NCM) Bash, which is scheduled for April 25-27. However, given the unpredictability of car debuts, enthusiasts could have to wait until the second half of 2024 for the formal announcement.

The term EX VIN refers to experimental builds crucial for vehicle development and refining manufacturing processes. Regrettably, such prototypes, including the recently produced ZR1, are destined for demolition and will never be owned by individuals. Nonetheless, the Corvette ZR1 continues to generate significant interest, fueling speculation and excitement with each appearance on US soil.

The upcoming 2025 Corvette ZR1, expected to be offered in both coupe and convertible variations, is poised to set new performance standards. While specifics about the rear wing options remain undisclosed, a high-downforce specification is anticipated as part of the ZTK track performance package, upholding the legacy of its predecessor.

Motorious anticipates that by building on the legacy of the C7 ZR1, which stood as the most potent production Corvette to date, the new model is positioned to surpass these achievements with the introduction of the LT7 engine.

Outstanding horsepower is anticipated from this twin-turbocharged beast. Consequently, the Corvette ZR1's standing among supercars is further cemented. The exclusive use of a dual-clutch transmission and the switch to a mid-engine layout shows Corvette's commitment to innovation and peak performance.
