2021 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray

From every angle, the 2021 Corvette looks beautiful and every flowing curve is designed to accentuate the car's aerodynamic airflow. Dual front air intakes provide essential engine cooling while giving the car an aggressive road presence. On the coupe, a rear hatch window gives admirers a tantalizing view of the V-8 engine. The Corvette is offered in 1LT, 2LT, and 3LT trim levels with increasing levels of comfort and equipment. Each model features LED headlights, daytime running lights, 19-inch front and 20-inch rear wheels, signature taillights, and color-keyed heated power mirrors with turn signals. The top two trims add power-folding mirrors.

The Corvette is powered by a mid-mounted 6.2-liter engine that delivers 490 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels via an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. With the available Z51 Performance Package, the power is increased to 495 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque.

In true Corvette style, the 2021 model provides an exhilarating driving experience, but the mid-engine layout gives you an even greater degree of balance and connectivity to the road. Large paddle shifters combine the control of a manual transmission with the lightning-quick shifts of an automatic. The Z51 Performance Package adds a heavy-duty cooling system, specially tuned suspension with adaptive dampers, an electronic limited-slip differential, and upgraded tires. With this package, you can hit 60 mph in just 2.9 seconds and do the quarter-mile in 11.2 seconds on the way to a top speed of 194 mph.

In the driver-focused cockpit, you'll find yourself enveloped by premium materials. The instruments and switches are intuitively placed for instant fingertip control. Behind the squared-off leather-wrapped steering wheel is a reconfigurable 12-inch digital instrument cluster. Standard features include keyless open and start, leather upholstery, power-adjustable seats, cruise control, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a power tilting and telescoping steering column. Front and rear trunks provide versatile cargo space. The 1LT trim's infotainment system has an 8-inch HD touch screen, a Wi-Fi hot spot, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integration, voice recognition, and Bluetooth for audio streaming and hands-free calling. You can also access OnStar, Chevrolet Connected Services, and in-vehicle apps. The premium 10-speaker Bose audio system includes satellite radio. The 2LT adds a head-up display, heated and ventilated seats, driver and passenger memory settings, a heated steering wheel, a rear camera mirror, a performance data recorder, navigation, wireless charging, and a 14-speaker sound system. Going with the 3LT gets you a custom leather-wrapped interior, sueded microfiber upper trim, and nappa leather GT2 sports seats.

Standard safety features include active handling stability control with traction control, Brembo anti-lock brakes, rear park assist, and an HD rear vision camera. The Teen Driver functions include the new Buckle-to-drive feature. 2LT and 3LT models add an HD front view camera, side blind-zone alert, and rear cross-traffic alert.
