The 2009 Corvette ZR-1′s Supercharged LS9 6.2 (376 cubic inches) liter V-8 will have an output of 638 horsepower, 604 ft lbs of peak torque and exceed a top speed of 200 miles per hour.
This will be the first factory built Vette with forced induction, based on the spec sheets that means 103 hp per liter, or 1.7 hp per cubic inch. GM also claims that “the ZR-1 will have the most fuel efficent 600 plus horspower car on the market.”
Only 2000 ZR-1′s will be made for 2009 and will sell for an expected $100,000. The King of Corvettes goes on sale this summer. Long live the King.
