A true performance hardtop
The new Corvette offers a first-ever production retractable hardtop. The top adds just 35 kilograms to the weight of the vehicle and flows seamlessly into the body while maintaining Stingray’s impressive storage capabilities. Available in body-color or Carbon Flash, the two-piece hardtop can activate at speeds up to 31 mph. And performance stays high when the top goes down, making this the most track-capable Corvette convertible in history.
A new profile in power
The mid-engine configuration provides incredible visibility, responsiveness and driving feel. The new engine placement provides rear weight bias, meaning more power is directed to the rear wheels where it matters most. And with the windshield now over the front wheels, there’s improved downforce without the need for a front air dam.
Racing-Inspired Steering Wheel
Designed for maximum visibility and comfort, this flat-top and flat-bottom steering wheel includes large paddle shifters, audio controls, a Z-Mode button and more.
Storage
The center console is covered, opens with the push of a button and locks
when the vehicle is locked. Inside the console, you’ll find two USB ports† and an audio input jack. Additionally, a locking glove box allows you to safely store valuables.
Vertical Climate Controls
This fighter jet-inspired layout puts climate and heated/ventilated seat controls right at your fingertips, and positioned lower in the cockpit for greater visibility.
Ultra-Thin Air Vents
The clean appearance of the cockpit-style interior is uninterrupted due to the use of ultra-thin air vents.
The driver’s domain
Every detail is designed to provide a natural and immersive driving experience that’s tailored to you. Each button is exactly where it needs to be for comfortable, intuitive use. And with three seat combinations to choose from, there's sure to be one that perfectly suits you.
Comfortably in command
GT1
Standard on the 2LT, the GT1 seat is wrapped in Mulan leather and designed for long distance and support.
GT2
Available on 2LT and standard on 3LT, the GT2 seat features carbon-fiber trim with a seatback halo and is wrapped in genuine Napa leather.
COMPETITION SPORT
The available Competition Sport seat provides aggressive bolsters for track driving, with performance textile in high-wear areas.
PERFORMANCE
A heart that’s always racing
What happens when you set out to improve upon a storied legacy of small block engines? You get the all-new 482 HP 6.2L LT2 V8†. A no-compromises powerhouse that’s been architecturally transformed to sit lower for improved handling.
Beating Heart
The new Corvette delivers †, making it the most powerful production Stingray ever.
Intake
Adorned with a Corvette insignia, the composite intake manifold has 8 equal length runners of 210 mm in length to maximize torque and airflow for every cylinder. This assembly also uses an 87 mm throttle body.
Exhaust Manifolds
Performance stainless steel headers run directly into split volume catalytic converters, which are packaged for maximum efficiency. This combination enables high airflow while enabling Corvette to meet stringent emissions standards.
Dry-Sump Scavenge System
Oil is pumped from the engine using three scavenge pumps, ensuring oil quality and flow to critical areas occurs during high g-force cornering.
Pure and precise shifting
Every part had to earn its way onto this car, and the standard dual-clutch transmission is no different. It features lightning-quick shifts, combining the smoothness of an automatic with the action of a manual. And since there’s no deceleration between shifts, your lap times will benefit too.
Magnetic Ride Control™ 4.0
Optional on the new Corvette Stingray, this next-generation damping system reads the road every millisecond and adapts in as little as 10–15 milliseconds. An innovative suspension fluid contains metal particles that align and become rigid in an instant, giving you the confidence and control to push harder while staying planted.
The right mode for every road
With the turn of a meticulously designed dial, everything changes. The Driver Mode Selector lets you electronically calibrate up to 12 performance variables to ready your Stingray for any road. And all-new My Mode and Z-Mode let you personalize performance even further, allowing you to save settings between drives.
TECHNOLOGY
The mind of the machine
This powerful machine is equipped with a serious command center. From the latest Chevrolet Infotainment 3 system† with 8-inch diagonal color touch-screen to the ingenious available Front Lift, every feature was included to improve your drive. With standard technologies like the Performance Data Recorder and color Head-Up Display, the car just may help improve your driving skills too.
Tech highlights
- 12-inch diagonal reconfigurable digital instrument display incorporates all driver information and features three distinct themes
- Standard Bose Performance Series 14-speaker audio system
Front Lift System
Let nothing stand in your way. This available system raises the front of your Corvette almost 5 centimeters in less than three seconds† at low speeds so you can clear low obstacles like speed bumps or steep driveways.
Performance Data Recorder (PDR)
Your digital driving coach is back and better than ever with 1080p recording that provides a high-quality reproduction of your drive. Capture acceleration speed, braking, gear choice, sound and more with this available feature designed to help make you one with the car. And when you’re away from the track, PDR can act as a dash cam with auto-record for your daily drives.
Additionally, PDR is equipped with Valet Mode that can be used to monitor the use of your Corvette when others are behind the wheel, recording video and vehicle data, letting you hand off your car with peace of mind.
