The all-new seventh-generation ("C7") Chevrolet Corvette debuts for 2014. A long, low nose and a high, stubby rear deck make it familiar as a Chevrolet Corvette  But the controversial rear end, with its vents and trapezoidal taillights, is a radical departure from models past. Under the skin, the Chevrolet Corvette C7 is similar to the previous car but features a stiffer body structure.
Of course, it wouldn't be a Chevrolet Corvette if it didn't have a burly V8 for an engine. A new Chevrolet Corvette, direct-injected 6.2-liter V8 boasts an estimated 450 horsepower and can be matched to either a new seven-speed manual transmission or conventional six-speed automatic.The interior of Chevrolet Corvette, previously the weakest element of the Chevrolet Corvette  has been upgraded with plenty of soft-touch materials as well as better fit and finish. A New Chevrolet Corvette touchscreen interface along with more supportive and comfortable seats round out the interior's comprehensive improvements.

There are but two models of the latest Chevrolet Corvette  the base "Stingray" and the high-performance Chevrolet Corvette Z51. The Chevrolet Corvette  Z51 gets performance dampers, shorter gearing, an electronically controlled differential, Chevrolet Corvette dry-sump oiling system, forged wheels and slight aerodynamic body tweaks. Chevrolet Corvette latter can also be had with the Magnetic Ride Control suspension, which enables high-performance handling with a compliant highway ride.
We have yet to drive the newest Chevrolet Corvette,  but imagine we won't be disappointed once we do.The previous-generation (C6) Chevrolet Corvette debuted for 2005 and ran through 2013. Compared to the Chevrolet Corvette C5, it boasted improvements in performance, build quality and styling. New Chevrolet Corvette  design changes included the return to exposed headlamps (first time since '62), crisper fender peaks and a visual slimming of the big rear end. The Chevrolet Corvette cabin was upgraded with better materials and the convertible's top could be power-operated. Initially, it had a 6.0-liter V8 developing 400 hp.

The new Chevrolet Corvette  ZR1 ultra-high-performance fixed-roof coupe arrived for '09, wielding a 638-hp supercharged V8 and appropriate suspension and brake upgrades, as well as some unique styling features such as a hood window.The following year Chevrolet Corvette brought out the Grand Sport, which essentially combined the base car's V8 with the Z06's suspension and brake upgrades. For 2012, Chevrolet Corvette received new, more heavily bolstered seats, which provided more comfort and previously lacking lateral support.
