I’ve always been a huge fan of Corvettes, and I know they’re all capable of some pretty amazing speeds. What’s the top speed for a Corvette?

You’re right—
‘Vettes
are some of the fastest sports cars available, especially when equipped with top-tier engines. A Chevrolet Corvette’s top speed can reach over 271 mph depending on the model.
To better answer your question about the Chevrolet Corvette’s top speed, though, we’d have to give you two answers—one for production Corvettes and one for modified cars.
The 2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 is the fastest production Corvette ever, with the following specs:
  • Top track speed of 212 mph
  • 6.2L supercharged OHV 16-valve V8
  • 755 horsepower @ 6.400 rpm
  • 715 lb-ft of torque @ 3,600 rpm
The fastest Corvette in the world, on the other hand, is a modified 1984 Corvette C4, with these specs:
  • Top speed of 271.044 mph
  • Custom-built 9.5L V8
  • 1,100 horsepower
