2020
Stingray
The one that started the mid-engine era. 495 hp, sub-3-second 0–60, and a price tag that broke the internet.
C8
Mid-Engine Revolution
For 67 years the engine sat up front. In 2020, Chevrolet moved it behind the driver — and Corvette stopped chasing supercars and started being one.

The Story
Chief engineer Tadge Juechter and his team spent over a decade quietly engineering the impossible: a mid-engine Corvette that still started in the same price neighborhood as the front-engine cars it replaced.
When the covers came off in July 2019 at a hangar in Tustin, California, the order books crashed. A 495-horsepower, sub-three-second sports car for under $60,000 USD wasn't supposed to exist.
Six years later the C8 family stretches from the daily-drivable Stingray to the 1250-horsepower ZR1X — every one of them built in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
