Product Overview

Chevrolet Corvette C7 is a high-performance mid-size targa sports car in production from 2014 to 2019. It was available with a range of V8 engines that displaced 6.2 liters.

Compared to the C6 Corvette, the C7 uses a rear-mounted transaxle setup that improved weight distribution. It further adds a 7-speed manual transmission, while a fast-shifting 8L90 8-speed automatic was also offered.

The best Stingray is already an admirable vehicle, while the Z06 and ZR1 models with supercharged variants of the LT1 engine offers some of the best performance from North America.

Reviewer score 84% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from carmagazine have found:

The 'Vette was always a lightweight machine built of fiberglass, but of course these days it's carbonfibre layered across the dash, those seats and of course above your head, with that removable roof. The seats are really well bolstered: the fittings and finish of the cabin, including the leather, isn't Porsche-like, but it's hardly Asda either. The driving position is low, snug and near-perfect, giving you prime position to lord over that undulating bonnet.

Pros

Powerful V8
Gorgeous looks
Fantastic handling

Cons

Rear visibility isn’t great
