It was not until the second half of 2021 that the Corvette C8 set foot on the Old Continent. It will land there immediately in coupe and roadster versions, and with its best attributes. The manufacturer has in fact decided to offer the Z51 pack in series, sold as an option on its home market: large Brembo brakes, aero pack (rear spoiler, etc.), sports exhaust or even Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires will therefore be part of basic endowment. And the comfort equipment is not to be outdone, with the head-up display, the heated and ventilated seats, the Bose audio system with 14 speakers, etc.
As a reminder, this 8th generation Corvette clearly breaks with the tradition of the lineage. She who had always hidden her big mill under the endless front cover, here she adopt a central engine architecture, like the Ferrari 488 Pista or Lamborghini Gallardo, among others. Its V8 6.2l of 501 horses will therefore now push passengers without their backs, and will allow the American to kill 0 to 100 km / h in less than 3 seconds!
True to its precepts, the American will be marketed at an unbeatable price: € 91,000 for the coupe, € 97,500 for the roadster. It's given !
