Explore the Stingray in McCordsville today and discover why this icon remains at the pinnacle of performance.
V8-Powered Acceleration
In a time when large-displacement gasoline engines are becoming extinct, the Stingray houses an untamed 6.2L LT2 V8 that produces 495 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. The engine features exhaust headers running directly into split-volume catalytic converters to meet strict emission standards without compromising airflow. It comes mated to an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission to add the engagement of a manual transmission while providing smooth shifts that take only a hundred milliseconds.
If you plan on challenging supercar lap times, the Z51 Performance Package equips your Corvette with everything it needs, including a performance exhaust that boosts the engine output to 495 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque. Mat the pedal, and the fully equipped Stingray will rocket to 60 mph from a standstill in 2.9 seconds and cross the quarter-mile mark in 11.2 seconds. Coupe models can reach a phenomenal top speed of 194 mph.
Outstanding Handling
Drag racing is not all the Stingray is good for; its mid-engine layout and advanced suspension equip it to tackle circuits like the Nürburgring strip. The V8 sits behind the driver, giving the sports car near-perfect weight distribution for balanced steering.
The Corvette’s standard SLA double wishbone suspension with monotube shocks excels at high-speed cornering and different road conditions, but circuit racing enthusiasts prefer the available Z51 performance suspension with Magnetic Selective Ride Control. The advanced system adjusts damping by reading the road every millisecond and features a magnetorheological fluid (MR fluid) that becomes rigid in response to different driving conditions.
Aerodynamic Styling
The Stingray’s exterior styling screams supercar, but every feature has a special function. The wide grille, front air vents, and side air intakes cool the monstrous V8, while the front splitter and rear spoiler reduce lift at high speeds. The sculpted body helps the sports car reduce drag and direct airflow into its intakes. You can choose between seven 19-inch front and 20-inch rear wheel options, including split-spoke and open-spoke designs to customize your Corvette.
Smart Data Recorder
The available performance data recorder captures footage of your racing activities using a 1080p HD camera mounted on the windshield. It can be configured to auto-record whenever you drive the Corvette, or only function in Valet mode. When Track Mode is engaged, the system captures your top and average speed, g-forces, 0 to 60mph time, and other valuable performance data.
