Chevrolet Corvette Stingray in more detail
More detailed contextPerformance with usable practicality
With a 495‑hp V8 and 637 Nm, it sprints to 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds and reaches 317 km/h, suiting performance‑focused drivers.
It also ranks well for safety in our data and, at $59,995, offers strong value among high‑performance two‑seaters.
Trips for two
A two‑seat cabin limits flexibility, but 357 liters of cargo space helps with weekend bags and longer drives.
Combined consumption of 13 and a rated range of 305 km mean more frequent stops than long‑range grand tourers.
Who it fits
Best for buyers seeking top‑speed and acceleration capability with enough storage for two‑person travel.
Less suited to families, cargo‑heavy needs, or shoppers who prefer rear‑drive dynamics over the FWD layout listed here.
