The new 2020 Corvette Stingray is here and it's time for my first drive! Ever since the huge reveal event I've been looking forward to having a go to see what the mid-engined C8 is actually like, and this is finally the day!
For the first time, the Corvette is now a mid-engined car with a 6.2l naturally aspirated V8 mounted behind the occupants. Pushing out 495bhp through an 8spd Tremec dual clutch it boasts impressive numbers; 0-60mph in 2.9s and on to 194mph. In traditional fashion the Stingray offers a removable targa roof panel that can be stowed in the back to hear even more from the exhaust. Onboard are a whole host of new technologies, features, gadgets and controls to play with.
Let's have a full run through of everything you could want to know about the new generation of Corvette and find out how it stacks up against expectations.
Kicking off from Las Vegas, I'm sharing a car with Matt Maran Motoring to explore the Lake Mead area and get a feel for what it's all about. Check Matt out too at: / @mattmaranmotoring
Thanks for watching, Tim

RIGHT. Everyone just looks at, "6.2L So Massive!" completely ignoring it's only 16 valves with no overhead cam setup. My 5.0 Coyote dwarfs the 6.2 LT4 in my Z06. People underestimate how much space overhead cams take up, and more importantly, how much they weigh and affect center of gravity since they sit so high up.

@@Daniel-ii6rq Chevrolet has stated themselves that they studied mid-engined European supercars like the Ferrari 458 when developing the C8 Corvette. So yes, you absolutely can compare them and stating that it's close in certain aspects would be giving it huge praise, since it's so much cheaper than the Europeans.

Obviously you know absolutely nothing about what you are talking about. This is not a budget super car. The upcoming Z06 and ZR1 are going to redefine what a super/hyper car is. Having owned 5 Corvettes, 2 Porsches, and an AMG GTS, the C7 is by far the best sports car and you won't be making trips to the dealer for repairs. C8 on order.

Having read about and seen photos of mid-engine Corvette prototypes on and off for the whole time I've been a fan, it's fantastic that Chevy has finally built one - before I die! - and it appears to be a good one at that. It's beyond my humble budget but that's not a criticism. The C8 is something to aspire to. Thanks again.

@botsebulldog1211 4 жыл бұрын
I think he was speeding up for a place to turn around but the bikers thought it was a challenge and kept running up behind the car increasing there speed so the driver slowed down and stopped to turn around. If you notice whoever was driving waited for the bikers to go around him one is so close he passed the car on the right because he is following to close. If a vehicle in front whether it be a motorcycle, car, or anything else slows down whatever is behind suppose to slow down as well. I own a sports car so in my everyday driving I have times where I have to accelerate well over speed limits to get others ie other motorists off my ass. But in the idiot world that most live in the ideology is it's the drivers fault when chasing him down at 110 on a motorcycle.

I think in the z51 model the front end lift system has a memory function to remember driveways and speed bumps which is a nice feature. Nice video Tim,keep them coming. Nice car as well. You need one of these cars for shmee collection.

My dad had the C8 just this past week. It was just the base model. But, I’ve never been so impressed with a car. For the price, it’s on par with Ferrari’s. It’s an incredible machine, and the acceleration is amazing. We got 0-60 in 3.4 seconds on very cold Michigan pavement on cold tires. Can’t wait to hear more opinions from people.

@@Sabba7h this car is far from competing with any supercar at the level of a 720s. Corvettes are undeniably sports cars, until you get to the Zr1.

As always a great review by Shmee. This Corvette is the "dogs bollocks" as we Brits would say. The design, even without a rear spoiler it looks fantastic, the interior makes audi, porsche etc look boring. All the technology and for the price..amazing. with the Z51 package it's been tested 0-60mph at 2.8 seconds..A stunning supercar..just wait for the Z06 and ZR1 versions...

Thank you Shmee for coming over to the USA for this review of the C8 Corvette. I have been looking forward to your review of this revolutionary car and I am excited to get your impressions of it on the track. I also have to give credit to Chevy for choosing such a beautiful place (Lake Mead) and on such great roads to provide the test drives. Among the many beautiful shots in this video of the scenery and the car, I especially liked when you demonstrate the rear view camera at 18:25, the image looks like it could be from a postcard.
