In America Chevrolet Corvette Stingray , here only Corvette Stingray . Be that as it may, the car is still the same and it doesn't change the fact that for the first time a "Vette" is presented in a world premiere on European soil .
Specifically, it is a new generation of open "corvette" with the name Corvette Stingray Convertible . Compared to the base coupe , the convertible offers virtually only two major changes – a retractable canvas roof and the associated space behind the seats for it, and then a new position for the seat belt attachment points.
I will only repeat myself when I mention that under the hood there is an eight-cylinder 6.2 LT1 series with an output of 450 hp and a maximum torque of 610 Nm. The unit is connected to the rear wheels using a seven-speed manual or automatic transmission , and acceleration to 100 km/h takes less than 4 seconds.
As with the coupe, the convertible can be equipped with the optional Z51 package , which includes an electronically controlled limited-slip differential, a dry sump engine lubrication system, and an integral system of elements to improve brake, differential and transmission cooling, and additional body aerodynamics .
