Test Track's showroom adds a $221,095 Corvette ZR1, the most powerful production Corvette ever built

·

A 2026 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Coupe 3LZ in Blade Silver Metallic is now on the turntable in the General Motors vehicle showcase at the exit of Test Track in EPCOT. Its window sticker totals $221,095 and its twin-turbo 5.5-liter V8 is rated at 1,064 horsepower. Guests can talk to GM product specialists there, but the showroom is not a dealership.

Test Track's showroom adds a $221,095 Corvette ZR1, the most powerful production Corvette ever built

The General Motors vehicle showcase at the exit of Test Track in EPCOT has a new headliner: a 2026 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Coupe 3LZ, the most powerful production Corvette Chevrolet has ever built. It sits on a circular display beneath a Corvette wordmark in the post-show showroom, with a window sticker that totals $221,095.

Key Details

The car on the turntable

The display car is finished in Blade Silver Metallic with an asymmetrical Edge Red and Carbon Flash dual racing stripe running the full length of the body. The red carries through to bright red brake calipers, Torch Red seat belts and an asymmetrical Adrenaline Red and Jet Black interior. It wears the ZR1 Carbon Fiber Aero Package, which adds a tall carbon-fiber high wing, dive planes and a hood spoiler, plus carbon fiber on the front splitter, rocker panels, roof and exterior accents. The wheels are 20-spoke Carbon Flash forged aluminum, and beneath the rear wing is the split rear window that Chevrolet revived for this generation of ZR1.

Inside, the car has Carbon Fiber Interior Trim Level 2, the Stealth Interior Trim Package, custom Adrenaline Red leather stitching, a front-lift system with height memory, and a mismatched pair of seats: a Competition Sport bucket for the driver and a GT2 bucket for the passenger.

1,064 horsepower and a 233 mph test run

The mid-engine ZR1 pairs its 5.5-liter LT7 V8 with an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. Chevrolet rates the engine at 1,064 horsepower and 828 pound-feet of torque, the most powerful engine ever fitted to a production Corvette and, by Chevrolet's account, the most powerful V8 an American automaker has put in a production vehicle. Chevrolet's own figures put a properly equipped ZR1 at 0 to 60 mph in 2.3 seconds and a 9.6-second quarter mile at 150 mph. A standard-aerodynamics ZR1 averaged 233 mph in two-way top-speed testing in Germany.

The EPCOT car carries the $4,395 ZTK Performance Track Package and the $10,495 Carbon Fiber Aero Package, the combination responsible for its high-downforce bodywork. Those two options make up more than half of the $27,700 in extras on the sticker.

What the placard says

The back of the car's display placard lists six lap times associated with the ZR1 model. They are records for the model, not runs made by the specific car on display:

CircuitLap time

Road America2:08.6
Road Atlanta1:22.8

Nurburgring Nordschleife6:50.76

Chevrolet described the five U.S. records in a February 2025 announcement. The EPCOT car shares the ZR1 powertrain and the ZTK Performance Package used on those runs, so it is broadly the same configuration as the record setters.

Inside the Test Track post-show

After the outdoor high-speed loop, guests exit into a post-show area that opens with a mural of the retro-futuristic city from the end of the ride. A curved black pathway then leads through the General Motors showcase, where current GM vehicles sit in rounded, blue-accented display areas and GM product specialists are on hand to explain features and answer questions. The showcase is not a dealership: nobody can buy a car in the park. A specialist can start the conversation, but any purchase and delivery goes through an authorized dealer.

This version of the showroom arrived with the current Test Track, which officially reopened on July 22, 2025 after a reimagining that returned the attraction to General Motors sponsorship. The previous version, from 2012, had been presented by Chevrolet specifically. Test Track replaced World of Motion in 1999 and now sits in World Discovery, the neighborhood on the east side of the park, and a rotating showroom of production cars has been part of its exit since the beginning.

The Buzz

Six-figure sports cars are a Test Track post-show tradition, but a four-figure horsepower number is new. The ZR1 is the first production Corvette to pass 1,000 horsepower, and putting one where every rider walks past it turned the exit corridor into a photo stop. The $221,095 sticker, posted in full next to the car, is the number people keep repeating.

You can look, but the $221,095 purchase happens at a dealership

The Corvette ZR1 is on display now in the Test Track showcase and there is no announced end date for it. The showroom rotates its vehicles, so it will not be there forever. Anyone who wants to see it should plan on Test Track anyway; the showcase is only reachable through the ride's exit. And anyone who wants to own one should bring a checkbook to a Chevrolet dealer, not to EPCOT.
