Which trim to go for?

It's a no brainer to realize that all 3 trim levels of the Corvette are well equipped in most of the domains. We would choose the 1LT coupe of the 2020 Corvette Stingray just for its price and feature-rich folio. Couple it with the Z51 package and you will have a well-equipped speed monster at your disposal.

A 6.2-liter V8 charges the 2020 Corvette Stingray while keeping it on top of the speedster hierarchy. Promising both thrill and adrenaline, the Stingray is designed to outsmart the darkest of sharks in the school of fishes. Matted to the V8 is an 8-speed automatic transmission that performs its duties like a battalion.

Witnessing a dual-clutch automatic transmission for the first time, the eighth generation of Corvette is a keeper in all its senses.

 The 2020 Chevrolet Corvette makes 490 horsepower at 6450 rpm and makes 465 lbs./ft. of torque at 5150 rpm. Adding the Z51 package to the system will fetch another 5 hp from the V8 making a total of 495 hp produced. While the competition is fierce, the 2020 Audi R8 coupe produces a tremendous power figure of 562 hp but lacks in terms of torque produced. The 2020 911 Carrera is the least power-producing vehicle of them all mentioned here.

How fast is the C8 Corvette Stingray?

‘Lightning fast’ is not just an expression but reality for the new mid-engine Corvette C8. The new setup not only opens up more space to keep your luggage but makes the sports mobile much more subtle and equiweighted all throughout.

Rear-wheel drive train keeps the car functional in both road and track conditions while giving the initial straight line push to the punchiness of C8.

Accelerating like a mad wolf on steroids, the 2020 Corvette Stingray C8 Coupe can go 0 to 60 miles per hour in 2.9 seconds and cover quarter-mile in 11.2 seconds. It is quite evident that the C8 is the fastest accelerating machine out of the 3-speed monsters listed here. The 2020 Porsche 911 Carrera S does 0 to 60 miles per hour in 4 seconds and has a quarter-mile time of about 11.3 seconds. Audi R8, on the other hand, clocks 0 to 60 in 3.2 seconds while covers a quarter of a mile in 10.6 seconds.

How has the mid-engine setup affected the Ride and handling of the C8 Corvette?

‘Buttery smooth’ is not an expression we will use for metal carcasses on four wheels but this beauty of a Sportster is meaner on the road then it looks. Sitting closer to the ground than its predecessors, the 2020 Corvette Stingray rides smooth and agile on straight lines while curves test its limits. Proving its worth, the C8 performs jumble-humble dance of the jungle in its super designed suspension mechanics.

A well-designed steering sits in perfect proportion to the driving with super command over the wheels. Trust, or no trust, the steering keeps the wheels as close to the ground and command with precision. City driving can be tricky because of admirers waving at you on intersections but other than that, it just pops and crackles all the way.

How does it fare on the braking fare?

If you look closer, the 2020 Corvette Stingray C8 comes with the smallest brakes of them all but still performs adequately well. Stopping a 3362 lbs. car cruising on triple-digit speeds is no child's play and this isn’t a lego car as well.

In terms of the overall feel, the brakes inspire a tremendous amount of confidence at all moments. The Corvette maintains a linear path under heavy brake application and doesn't let the tail sway away.

With new generations, we as humans are growing more and more efficient and so is the case with cars. The 2020 Corvette Stingray has one of the highest fuel economy among its competitors and is definitely not a fuel guzzler. For the prize the C8 is placed at, its economy is at par with standards.

On the highway, Carrera S goes for 24 miles while R8 runs for 20 miles per gallon.

The new Corvette interiors define itself as 2 people set up with most of the driving consoles scattered around the driver. The overall space is shifted towards the front to accommodate the mid-engine setup of the sports mobile while headspace is lowered keeping dynamics in mind. Real metal, leather, and suede fill the spaces all around while a prominent center armrest takes up most of the space. An infotainment screen facing towards the driver with a squarish steering wheel in the front makes the cockpit look engaging and interesting.

What about the Interiors of the C8 Corvette?

For 2 people who can find space in the all-new mid-engine 2020 Corvette Stingray C8, the seating is above standards and beyond comfort. These specially designed buckets are not just easy on the ergonomics but also soothes the senses with a sense of plush and luxury.

Built with leather or optional suede, the seating on the Corvette is functional in all sense. While it's difficult to find flaws at this price point, there are some cost cuttings that are evident in the cabin. Specifically, in the door panels and the dashboard and the switches which will remind you of other Chevrolet cars.

Better engines and brilliant designs keep the Stingray over the 911. Also, when compared on the grounds of track performances, Corvette takes the center stage due to its more aero dynamism. Great fuel economy sweetens the deal and makes the coupe relevant for almost all benchmarks.

The R8 has been a flagship of speed for a long time now and to compete well with it is the eighth generation Corvette with the mid-engine setup.

Both coupe and Convertible Corvettes are like those skilled twin brothers who end up studying the geekiest of subjects but perform well in quirky job roles.
