2024 Chevrolet Corvette Review and Specs

Since its release, we have been praising the C8-generation Chevrolet Corvette because it offers mid-engine supercar performance at a price point that is more accessible than other sports cars. Although it costs half as much as its more exotic competitors, the thrills are still there. The sound of a naturally aspirated V-8 engine roars directly behind your head, giving you the thrill of an exotic sports vehicle. On a winding back road, the Vette's handling is incredibly satisfying and razor-sharp. Track days are fantastic, with loads of power available and handling that inspires confidence, making it a delight to blast out of corners.

What Is 2024 Bringing?

Chevy has made various changes to the base Stingray model in addition to launching the hybrid Corvette E-Ray for 2024. In addition to the three new colors—Riptide Blue, Cactus Green, and Sea Wolf Gray—the Corvette is also available with five new racing-stripe colors and new wheel designs. All versions are equipped with an electronic rear-view mirror that can show a video picture from a rear-facing camera, and a new pale-green Artemis interior design is now available. The coupe and convertible versions of the automobile provide alternative accessories that enhance its look, so even the engine bay may have some fun. Power operation for the back hatch is another addition, making it simpler to close the engine bay after admiring the V-8. Several driver-assistance systems, including as automated emergency braking, pedestrian and cyclist recognition, automatic high-beam headlights, and lane-keeping assistance, have also been introduced by Chevrolet and made standard on all models.

Cost and Selection of Items for Purchase

Depending on the specifications and extras, the 2024 Chevrolet Corvette may cost anywhere from $69,995 to $86,645 in price.

Performance, Engine, and Transmission

The engine, which produces 490 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque, is still the same 6.2-liter pushrod V-8 that is normally located in front of the passenger compartment but is now located behind it. It produces 495 horsepower when using the dual-mode performance exhaust included with the Z51 package. Summer tires, more aggressive brakes, and an electronic limited-slip rear differential are all included with the Z51 option. The only gearbox is an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic, a first for a Corvette. It is operated by two sizable shift paddles placed on the steering wheel or a push-button gear selector on the center console. There isn't a manual transmission available.

Cargo, Comfort, and Interior

The futuristic interior of the mid-engine C8 Corvette, which is still just a two-seater, is lined with materials like leather, real metal trim, and imitation suede. The headliner is even beautifully sewn. Speaking about the roof, it fits within the trunk directly rearward of the engine compartment and is detachable on the coupe—one person can wrestle it off. A 12.0-inch reconfigurable gauge display and a squared-off steering wheel are positioned in front of the driver, who can easily operate a huge infotainment touchscreen that is tilted toward them. The interior design maximizes the driver-focused approach by dividing the cockpit in half and placing a tall bank of temperature control controls atop a divider that resembles a wall between them.

Features for Safety and Driver Assistance

While certain driver-assistance functions, such as blind-spot monitoring, are optional, the Corvette is equipped with many as standard. Visit the websites of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) for further details on the Corvette's crash test results. Important safety characteristics consist of:

• Typical automatic emergency braking equipped with sensors for cyclists and pedestrians
• Normal lane-departure alert with assistance for lane-keeping
• Blind-spot detection and rear cross-traffic warning are optional.

Coverage for Maintenance and Warranty

The Corvette has incredible performance, but its warranty is just mediocre. The first maintenance service, at the very least, is free.

• A limited warranty is valid for 36 months or 36,000 miles.
• A powertrain warranty is valid for 60,000 miles or five years.
• Free maintenance is included on the initial visit.
