The 2020 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is powered by Chevrolet’s next-generation 6.2-liter Small Block V8 LT2 engine. This engine is the only naturally aspirated V8 in its segment and with an astonishing 495 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque on tap when equipped with performance exhaust, this Corvette delivers the most power ever for an entry Corvette.

2020 Corvette C8 models equipped with the Z51 Performance Package can go from 0 to 60 mph in under three seconds, offering the fastest 0-60 time of any entry-level Corvette ever. The mid-engine layout in the 2020 Corvette offers an improved weight distribution by creating a rear weight bias that further enhances the vehicle’s performance out on the road. With the driver’s seat being positioned close to the vehicle’s front axle there is a better sense of control for the driver as well as improved responsiveness of the vehicle.
