Solidifying the superiority of US-made sports cars, the 2024 Chevy Corvette Stingray has the power to tear up drag strips and handle like an extension of the driver’s body. Its athletic silhouette is ready to push limits on Chandler roads.
Borderline Supercar
Its standard 6.2L V8 engine is bound to ruin the day of anyone challenging the Stingray. The powerplant produces 490 horses and 465 lb-ft of torque and is mated to an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission. Shifts occur in a mere hundred milliseconds: an invaluable advantage in competitive racing. The available Z51 Performance Package introduces a performance exhaust, performance rear axle ratio, and several add-ons that boost the sports car’s power output to 495 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque.
With all performance upgrades, the Stingray reaches 60 mph from a standstill in a lightning 2.9 seconds and completes the quarter mile in just 11.2 seconds. Its mid-engine layout gives the sports car a perfect weight distribution, which couples with the electronic limited-slip differential (eLSD) for supercar-grade cornering capabilities. For the best handling prowess, the available Magnetic Ride Control adapts the suspension stiffness based on road conditions in real time.
Aggressive Styling
The Stingray looks as fast as it drives with its aerodynamic body sculpting and low profile. The sports car features 19-inch front and 20-inch rear gloss black wheels to maximize its rake angle. The signature side air intakes and wide grille cool the engine bay, which is made transparent by the available Convertible Engine Appearance Package. You can enhance the exterior further with the Z51 Performance package, which adds a stylish front splitter, a rear spoiler, and sports tires.
Race-Focused Cockpit
8-way power-adjustable GT1 bucket seats are standard on the Stingray and provide excellent comfort against G-forces. The leather-wrapped steering wheel invites a firm grip when cornering, and includes a heating function at the 2LT trim level. With the 3LT trim, the GT1s are swapped for more comfortable GT2 seats while most cabin surfaces receive touches of extravagance. For instance, the center console, instrument panel, and door trim panels receive a premium leather coat.
An 8-inch infotainment touchscreen offers Google built-in services, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, and a host of features included in the Chevrolet Infotainment 3 Plus system. You can stream music on the 10 Bose premium speakers, which can be swapped for a 14-speaker system if you choose the 2LT or 3LT trim levels. The available head-up display projects all important information on the windshield while racing.
