Please forgive me if I got some of the prices wrong. As far as I know these are correct.
2020 C8 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The Corvette has always had supercar aspirations. Now, it's a legitimate threat to the best that the Italians, Germans and Japanese have to offer.
We'll start with the obvious: the engine itself, the new LT2 Engine. It's still a 6.2-liter V8 and, at least in this initial flavor, it eschews forced induction. Where the base C7 made 455 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, however, this new one does 495 horsepower and 470 lbft or it will with the optional performance exhaust, at least. Without said exhaust, output numbers drop to 490 and 465, respectively. Dry-sump lubrication is standard, meaning a smaller oil pan and more consistent oil pressure on the track.
For the first time the 2020 Corvette will have an eight-speed, dual-clutch transmission from Tremec. The good news is that means no more crappy automatic. there will be no more three-pedal manual transmission.
All Corvettes will get coil-over suspension, while those opting for the Z51 performance package additionally get struts with adjustable spring perches. That means adjustable suspension stiffness and ride height -- so long as you don't mind a little wrench-turning. For those who prefer their suspension to adjust itself at the push of a button, Magnetic Ride Control 4.0 will also be available, as well as a new, GPS-enabled nose-lift feature. That's right, the car can be programmed to automatically lift its nose when, say, approaching your driveway or that pesky speed bump at the Mall.
It's meant to be an every day driver. Chevrolet promises room for two sets of golf clubs in the rear trunk, while the frunk in the nose is big enough for a TSA-approved carry-on plus a laptop bag. Most importantly, there's room in the back to fit the removable roof panel. Yes, the C8 is still a targa, and that warms my heart. Also exciting? Talk of a potential electrified Corvette to come in the ZR1 and all wheel drive in the Z06.
