Legendary Performance, On The Street And At The Track

The Corvette legend is all about low-slung, aggressive good looks, muscular V8 power, outstanding roadholding and that spacious yet intimate 2-place cockpit. For 2011, that legend is available in a whole family of great sports cars – Coupe and Convertible, Grand Sport, Z06 and the awesome, range-topping ZR1. Horsepower ranges from 430 to an amazing 638. The available technologies include carbon ceramic brakes, carbon fibre body panels, electronic launch control and much more. Every Corvette comes with an unmatched competition heritage. And every Corvette has what it takes to give you the thrill of a lifetime.

Proven In The Crucible Of Competition

Corvette has been challenging Europe’s finest on the track since the first Corvette racers took to the Sebring road course back in March of 1956. The Corvette testing and development process also involves testing production models in race-like conditions, including grueling 24-hour validation tests at a variety of race tracks. The discipline of racing continues to make road-going Corvettes safer, faster, more powerful and more agile than their predecessors.

Corvette Coupe And Convertible: The Essential Sports Cars

With a 430 hp LS3 V8 under the hood, a choice of precise manual or automatic 6-speed transmissions,
a competition-proven four-wheel independent suspension and that dramatic, unmistakable profile, Corvette Coupe and Convertible are 100% pure sports car. They're also engineered with an eye for efficiency. Test track top speed is in excess of 300 km/h, yet Corvette Coupe and Convertible use just 7.7 litres of fuel per hundred kilometres of highway driving.** Corvette Convertible offers an available power top that raises and lowers in just 18 seconds.

Grand Sport: Performance And Efficiency

Grand Sport models combine the premium sports-car engineering of Corvette Coupe and Convertible with the track-oriented suspension and braking componentry of Z06. How does it work? In the 2010 Car and Driver Lightning Lap, a Grand Sport Coupe lapped faster than the Audi R8 V10 and the Porsche 911 Carrera S and finished 3rd overall out of 22 street-legal entries. On the test track, Grand Sport Coupe delivers 1g of lateral acceleration and can go from 0 to 96 km/h in less than four seconds. Yet it consumes just 12.9 litres of fuel per hundred kilometres in the city and a mere 7.7 litres per hundred kilometres on the highway.** That's what engineers call bandwidth.
