DPCcars | 2025 Chevrolet Corvette C8 ZORA Hybrid All That We Know @DPCcars | Uploaded 3 weeks ago | Updated 1 day ago
General Motors has recently been spotted testing several prototypes of the highly anticipated Zora model at the famous Nurburgring Nordschleife racetrack. Enthusiasts are eager to learn more about this powerful hybrid, and during the testing sessions, photographers captured four different Zora prototypes. Each was heavily camouflaged but still displayed unique styling elements that are reminiscent of the Corvette ZR1. Among the most notable features were the large rear wings, which resemble the ZR1 ZTK package, along with low-profile tires and carbon-ceramic brakes.
Despite the similarities to the ZR1, the yellow hybrid sticker on the rear windows was a clear indicator that the Zora will include hybrid technology. This is expected to be a combination of a front-mounted electric motor paired with a powerful V8 engine. Much like the Corvette E-Ray, the Zora is expected to house its battery pack in the central tunnel. The battery cells, supplied by LG, will deliver around 1.9 kilowatt hours of power, with 1.1 kilowatt hours usable by the electric motor.
The electric motor will significantly enhance the vehicle’s acceleration, likely reducing the zero to sixty time by about half a second. For comparison, the Corvette E-Ray manages to hit sixty miles per hour in just 2.5 seconds, while the standard Stingray takes 3.0 seconds.
In terms of power, the electric motor will produce up to 160 horsepower and 125 pound-feet of torque. Combined with the LT7 twin-turbo V8 engine, which is rumored to make 1,064 horsepower, the Zora could push over 1,200 horsepower in total. Set to debut in late 2025 as a 2026 model, the Zora is expected to weigh over 4,000 pounds due to its hybrid components but will likely retain the overall design language of the current C8 Corvette.
