The 2026 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is powered by a naturally aspirated 6.2-liter LT2 V8 engine producing 490 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque. Its 8-speed dual-clutch transmission delivers lightning-fast shifts and seamless acceleration, rocketing from 0-60 mph in under 3 seconds with a top speed of 194 mph. The mid-engine layout provides perfect weight distribution and precision handling that rivals much pricier sports cars. An available Z51 Performance Package adds track-ready upgrades: performance-tuned suspension, electronic limited-slip differential, and upgraded brakes. The adaptive Magnetic Selective Ride Control adjusts damping in real time for confidence on any road. Ready to experience this American powerhouse?
