It will hit 60 mpg in less than four seconds, or record 30 mpg in fuel-efficient driving (official EPA mpg numbers are 17 city, 29 highway). In Eco mode, automatic cylinder deactivation seamlessly converts the V8 into a fuel-efficient V4. The Chevrolet's steering response will make the Porsche sweat, while the brakes provide a calm, professional feel that inspires confidence in the driver. A drive mode dial on the center console adjusts the Corvette's handling, steering, throttle response and even the exhaust note. Unlike many of these systems, the drive mode selector's five driver-selectable programs significantly change the Corvette's character, with the difference between the standard Tour mode and the full-performance Track mode being the most pronounced.

The Corvette Stingray's interior is a premium space, clad in leather and enhanced with aluminum and carbon fiber, that's easy on the eyes and body. The magnesium alloy seats and the 8-inch color screen in the center console are a real treat.

Appearance

In recharge mode, the Stingray convertible loses the subtle silhouette of the coupe's rear roofline and window, but reappears when the fabric top is fully retracted and not visible behind the seats.

The V8, meanwhile, tops out at 29 mpg on the highway, which is better than the Scion xB and far better than any performance car you can name thanks to the engine's ability to shut down all four engines. When the driver of the Stingray steps lightly on the accelerator, its eight cylinders kick into action. A standard 7-speed manual transmission sends the powerful power of the V8 to the rear wheels, but most Corvette buyers will opt for the 6-speed automatic transmission.
