The C7 Corvette Stingray is definitely one of this year's hotly anticipated sports cars. The C7 stands for Seventh Generation Corvette, from its core to the last DNA of its composite bodywork. The Stingray delivers stunning looks, performance, exceptional handling, and comfort, along with exceptional pricing.
The Corvette Stingray has more road grip, better braking, and it takes the pleasure of driving to a whole new level. On the track, around the figure eight, the Stingray handles better than its predecessor resulting in impressive lap times.
As far as acceleration using the launch control, you really need not to. Best acceleration can be achieved without it. The large rotors and sticky Michelin Pilot Super Sport ZP tires lead to a very impressive stopping distance. The Corvette Stingray has a special drive mode selector that allows you to change between five modes.
The five modes are Weather, Economic, Touring, and Sport / Track. Switching between these modes can be achieved while driving, and the car is set up in an instant. It is absolutely fascinating, the level of technology in this car.
The LT1 6.2 liter V8 engine produces 460 horsepower and 465 lbs-ft of torque. The engine is still a pushrod design for better low-end torque and weight reduction. When Economy Mode is activated, it shuts down four cylinders to save fuel.
This allows the Stingray to hit almost 30 MPG.
The C7 also comes with an all new seven speed manual gearbox with rev-matching mode that can be turned on or off from the steering-mounted paddles, which is also used for the automatic manual transmission. The first three gears of the manual transmission are shorter to deliver quicker initial acceleration. The great power to weight ratio of the C7 enables it to go from zero to sixty in just 3.8 seconds.
In regards to the handling, the new Corvette Stingray has a ton of grip at both ends. The adjustable steering communicates really well when you want it to and fades away when you do not.
The chassis absorbs changes of input from the road and driver without an issue, unlike a lot of high performance cars which do not give you much feedback until reaching their limit.
