2027 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport Hot Springs AR

The 2027 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport takes the Stingray's 535-horsepower naturally aspirated LS6 V8 and puts it in the wide Z06 body with track-tuned hardware, for the driver who wants the widest stance and the most grip without stepping up to the flat-plane engine. It starts at $86,000, and at Allen Tillery Chevrolet it is a favorite of Hot Springs, Malvern and Arkadelphia drivers who want a Corvette that looks and handles like the track cars but keeps the linear naturally aspirated engine.

In Hot Springs, we order and stock the Grand Sport as a coupe or a convertible. Here is what sets it apart.

What the Grand Sport Adds Over the Stingray

The Grand Sport shares the Stingray's LS6 engine, so this is not a power upgrade; it is a chassis and hardware upgrade. It moves to the wider body, 79.7 inches across, and makes Magnetic Selective Ride Control 4.0 standard. It also unlocks the Z52 Sport and Z52 Track Performance Packages, the latter bringing carbon-ceramic brakes and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires. The result is a car that grips and looks like a Z06 while keeping the naturally aspirated LS6.

2027 Grand Sport Engine and Drivetrain

That LS6 puts 535 horsepower and 520 lb-ft to the rear wheels through the 8-speed dual-clutch transaxle, good for a 2.75-second 0-60 and a 10.95-second quarter mile at 124 mph. Like the Stingray it is rear-wheel drive. A separate model, the Grand Sport X, pairs the same LS6 with a front electric motor for 721 combined horsepower and all-wheel drive, for buyers who want electrification.

Grand Sport Chassis and Hardware

For a driver who takes a Corvette out to the Ouachita back roads, the hardware is the draw. The wide body brings standard Magnetic Selective Ride Control 4.0 and 20-inch front, 21-inch rear forged wheels. Everyday stopping comes from eBoost-assisted Brembo brakes, six pistons up front and four at the rear; tick the Z52 Track Performance Package and those become carbon-ceramic, joined by Cup 2 R tires, a quad center exhaust and the high-wing Carbon Fiber Aero Package with its dive planes. The lighter Z52 Sport package suits street driving that only occasionally sees a circuit.

Grand Sport Pricing and Packages

Prices exclude the $2,495 destination charge. The Z52 Sport and Z52 Track packages are offered on all three levels. Seating is two, cargo is 12.6 cubic feet across the front and rear trunks, and there is no tow rating on the Grand Sport.

The Grand Sport in the Corvette Lineup

The Grand Sport sits one step above the Stingray, sharing its engine but adding the wide body and track hardware. Above it, the Z06 brings the 670-horsepower flat-plane engine, and the ZR1 and ZR1X add twin turbos and, on the ZR1X, hybrid all-wheel drive. See the specs page for full numbers and the models compared page to weigh the choice.

Which Buyer Should Choose the Grand Sport?

• The driver who wants the wide-body look and grip: it delivers the Z06 stance and track ability on the naturally aspirated engine.
• The weekend track-day enthusiast: the Z52 Track package with carbon-ceramic brakes makes it circuit-ready.
• The buyer who loves the naturally aspirated feel: the linear LS6 is the point. Build yours in the Grand Sport inventory.
