The 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 is expected to be a monster of a car, and since it’s not out yet, there are official details, but also some exciting rumors. Here’s what we know so far:

Performance

  • Huge power: This will likely be the most powerful Corvette ever, with estimates reaching over 800 horsepower. This would be a big jump from the already impressive 670 horsepower Z06. It’s expected to achieve this through a twin-turbocharged version of the Z06’s 5.5-liter V8 engine.
  • Lightning fast: With that kind of power, expect a 0-60 mph time under 2.5 seconds.
  • Grippy handling: The ZR1 will likely have aerodynamic upgrades for better downforce, to keep it glued to the track during high-speed cornering.

Design

  • Aggressive looks: Expect a more aggressive design than the Z06, with features like bigger air intakes and a menacing front splitter to channel air for better performance.
  • Functional vents: Spy shots show vents on the fenders and rear likely to help cool the powerful engine.

Other features

  • Price: This will likely be a very expensive car, with estimates starting around $150,000 and reaching as high as $250,000 for high-spec models.
  • Transmission: It’s expected to carry over the Z06’s dual-clutch automatic transmission.

At Littleton Chevrolet, we see a ton of animals and remnants within the compartment of your engine area.  It is important that you schedule for regular maintenance so your vehicle runs correctly along with having our team do visual inspections.  Mice especially around northern New Hampshire can wreak havoc on your vehicle by chewing wires and nesting in upholstery. Here are steps you can take to keep them out:

Eliminate temptations:

  • Cleanliness: Keep your car clean and free of crumbs and trash. This removes potential food sources for mice. Vacuum your car regularly, paying attention to the seats, floor mats, and crevices. Wipe up any spills right away.
  • No food storage: Don’t store food or drinks in your car for long periods, especially overnight. This includes candy, snacks, and even pet food.

Seal entry points:

  • Park strategically: If possible, park your car in a garage or away from areas with high rodent activity, like near dumpsters or overgrown fields.
  • Close gaps: Inspect the exterior of your car for any holes or gaps that mice could use to get in. These can be found around wires, vents, and the firewall. Seal them up with caulk or steel wool.

Deterr with scents and sound:

  • Natural repellents: Place sachets of peppermint oil, cloves, or dryer sheets around your car. The strong smells can deter mice. Replace these every few weeks as the scent fades. There are also commercial rodent repellent packs available at hardware stores.
  • Ultrasonic deterrents: These devices emit high-frequency sounds that are unpleasant to mice. The effectiveness of these varies, and some people find the noise irritating as well.

Extra steps:

    • Snap traps: If you suspect mice are already in your car, you can set snap traps. Be sure to check and empty the traps daily.
    • Move your car: If your car sits for long periods, try to start it up and move it every few days. This will disrupt any potential nesting activity.

If you think you are having an issue or your vehicle is not performing up to its capabilities, we encourage you to schedule an appointment today by calling 603.444.1999.

Keeping your car clean and protected during winter requires a bit more effort than usual, but it’s definitely worth it to prevent rust, damage, and maintain that showroom shine. Here are some key strategies:

Washing:

  • Wash frequently: Aim for at least once a week, especially after snowstorms or heavy rain. This removes corrosive salt, dirt, and grime.
  • Use warm water: Cold water can freeze on your car, causing problems with doors and locks. If possible, wash in a heated garage or use warm water from a pressure washer (beware of high pressure damaging paint).
  • Pre-soak with snow foam: This loosens tough grime before contact washing, minimizing scratches.
  • Use gentle, pH-neutral soap: Harsh detergents can strip wax and damage paint.
  • Dry thoroughly: Use microfiber towels to prevent water spots and freezing. Consider a blower for hard-to-reach areas.

Protection:

  • Wax regularly: A fresh coat of wax every 3-4 months creates a barrier against salt, dirt, and moisture.
  • Apply rust inhibitor: Pay special attention to the undercarriage, wheel wells, and seams where salt can accumulate.
  • Use rubber floor mats: They trap moisture and dirt, protecting your carpets.
  • Consider a car cover: Protects from snow, ice, and debris, but ensure proper ventilation to prevent moisture buildup.

Additional Tips:

  • Remove snow and ice gently: Use a plastic scraper and brush, not metal, to avoid scratching the paint.
  • Clean your car’s sensors: Snow and salt can block sensors for safety features like automatic braking.
  • Empty floor mats frequently: This prevents mold and mildew growth from trapped moisture.
  • Check tire pressure regularly: Cold weather can decrease pressure, impacting handling and safety.

Remember, even with these measures, winter driving takes a toll. Regular inspections and touch-ups will help your car weather the season gracefully.

We thank Joseph Pelletier of Gilman, Vermont who recently purchased this 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer from Coty Day and was so impressed with his experience that he felt compelled to write this wonderful review and we want to share it with the world.

“I am an 80-year-old customer sharing my experience with LITTLETON CHEVROLET. My old Chevy died peacefully before me, so it was time to shop for a new vehicle.

My experience with LITTLETON CHEVROLET WAS OUTSTANDING!

I wish to specifically note that the Sales Manager Mr. Snowman is a remarkably professional and equally helpful person! I pleased me that he was so knowledgeable and helped this old guy a lot.

I also interacted with Mr. Coty Day he is Mr. Snowman’s best Salesman. Another talented individual. Coty was awesome and he surely made buying easy as he handled the details expeditiously and most efficiently to my delight. Finally, a fine young lady named Patty, the Delivery Coordinator provided additional notable and courteous service during my time on premises while I selected and was securing my new CHEVY TRAILBLAZER SUV!

I was so impressed that they have such a large inventory and a rainbow of colors on site ready to be viewed and from which to select.

If you are seeking a new or a used car, may I happily suggest and heartily recommend that you visit this PARTICULAR SITE. I went to 4 other dealerships and sadly their customer service seems to have been lost at those dealerships.

I encountered a level of professionalism and courteous informed and efficient service from each person with whom I had the pleasure of interacting there in Littleton. I was in the customer service business 52 years, so I know good service when I see it. The staff at Littleton Chevrolet exceeded the norm by a mile! I would unhesitatingly recommend that you visit this Chevy Dealership for theirs are the best deals around, believe me not only in Littleton but in the North Country in other non-Chevy dealerships. I did my homework as when you are my age time is not an issue, money is an issue too, so I took my time and zeroed in on the LITTLETON CHEVY SALES SITE ON MEADOW STREET.

Let me repeat that you will rejoice like me as they sure made shopping a pleasure. It’s no fun spending money but if you need a vehicle go check out the LITTLETON CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP so you too can experience service exceeding the norm, great prices and enjoy being professionally and courteously helped in securing your next vehicle.

I drove my new Trail Blazer home thinking to myself I must THANK GOD for guiding me to these talented professionals. I was nervous and after a few minutes’ anxiety left me and I found a fine vehicle which meets my budget and needs.

I was delighted that Littleton Chevrolet’s staff each possess thorough knowledge and eagerness to render good service totally exceeding the norm by a remarkable and appreciable distance!!! I am an extremely satisfied customer.
Folks so I am sharing my joy and my experience as I delight with my new 2024 Chevy Trailblazer.”

  • Wash your car regularly. This will remove salt and other debris from the surface of your car, preventing it from building up and causing damage. Aim to wash your car at least once every two weeks during the winter, or more often if you’re driving in salty conditions.

  • Wax your car. Waxing your car creates a barrier between the paint and the salt, making it more difficult for the salt to adhere and cause damage. Reapply wax every few months, or more often if you’re driving in salty conditions.
    Image of Waxing a car
  • Pay attention to the undercarriage. The undercarriage of your car is especially susceptible to salt damage, as it’s constantly exposed to the elements. When you wash your car, be sure to rinse the undercarriage thoroughly. You can also take your car to a professional car wash for a more thorough cleaning.

  • Avoid driving through deep puddles. Deep puddles can contain a lot of salt, so it’s best to avoid driving through them if possible. If you must drive through a puddle, do so slowly and carefully.
  • Park your car in a garage if possible. If you have a garage, park your car in it whenever possible. This will help to protect it from the elements, including salt.
  • Touch up any paint chips or scratches. Paint chips and scratches can provide a entry point for salt and other contaminants, so it’s important to touch them up as soon as possible.
    Image of Touching up paint chips on a car
  • Get your car inspected for rust regularly. It’s a good idea to have your car inspected for rust at least once a year, especially if you live in an area that uses a lot of salt on the roads.

By following these tips, you can help to prevent salt damage to your vehicle and keep it looking its best all winter long.
