Is the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X America's first true hypercar? With 1,250 combined horsepower from a twin-turbo V8 and front electric motor, the most powerful Corvette ever built heads to the racetrack to find out. Professional driver Andy Pilgrim pushes the hybrid Corvette to its limits against some of the fastest American performance cars ever assembled.

See how the ZR1X stacks up against the record-setting Czinger 21C, delivering astonishing acceleration, massive grip, and a 1:48.6 lap time—just over two seconds behind a hypercar costing nearly ten times as much.
