We’ve waited a long time for the Chevrolet Corvette to reach our shores, but we’re glad GM waited until now. With a plush interior, impressive ride quality (on the optional MagneRide dampers), effortless performance and a competitive list price, the Corvette, now in its eighth generation, finally feels like it can take on the best from Europe.
Chevrolet’s naturally-aspirated 6.2-litre V8 produces a respectable 475bhp and 452lb-ft of torque. With launch control activated via the dual-clutch automatic gearbox, the Corvette can accelerate from 0-62mph in just 3.5 seconds. That’s quick by anyone’s standards.
At What Car?, we believe that no one should overpay for their new car, which is why we created our free New Car Buying service. This links you with trusted local dealers who base their offers on prices haggled by our mystery shoppers.
