Zilisch to Drive Hendrick’s No 48 | Nascar News
Description
Hendrick Motorsports just locked in NASCAR’s next big thing—20-year-old Connor Zilisch—for a multiyear deal starting in 2028, taking over the iconic No. 48 Chevrolet from Alex Bowman. Already racking up 10 wins in the Xfinity Series and signed by Trackhouse at just 17, Zilisch is poised to carry on the legacy of one of NASCAR’s most storied cars. With Hendrick’s backing and Ally’s continued sponsorship, this move signals a bold, long-term investment in youth and talent—just like they did with Kyle Larson and Chase Elliott. Zilisch will stay with Trackhouse through 2027, giving him more seasoning before stepping into the spotlight at Hendrick. The future of the No. 48 just got a lot brighter.
