Pricing and Availability

How much is a 2027 Chevrolet Corvette?

Starting prices are $71,000 for the Stingray, $86,000 for the Grand Sport, $121,500 for the Z06, $197,700 for the ZR1 and $227,500 for the ZR1X, each excluding the $2,495 destination charge and before options.

Which 2027 Corvette is the entry model?

The Stingray 1LT coupe at $71,000 is the most accessible way into the lineup, and it is far from basic: it carries the 535-horsepower LS6 V8, Bose audio and power leather seats as standard.

What does a top-of-the-line 2027 Corvette cost?

A ZR1X 3LZ starts at $238,500 before destination and options. This is the hybrid all-wheel-drive halo at 1,250 horsepower, the most powerful Corvette Chevrolet has built.

Why do Corvette prices vary so much between models?

Each model is a genuinely different car: the Stingray and Grand Sport share a naturally aspirated V8, the Z06 has a race-derived flat-plane engine, and the ZR1 and ZR1X add twin turbos and, on the ZR1X, a hybrid front axle. You pay for the powertrain and hardware, not just trim.

Are the ZR1 and ZR1X hard to get?

The ZR1, ZR1X and the electrified Grand Sport are allocation-limited, which means Chevrolet builds a set number. Placing an order early through Allen Tillery Chevrolet is usually the surest way to secure one.

Does the price include the destination charge?

The starting prices quoted here exclude Chevrolet's $2,495 destination and freight charge, which is added to every Corvette. We will show you the full out-the-door figure before you order.

Engines and Performance

What engine is in the 2027 Corvette Stingray?

The 2027 Stingray uses the new naturally aspirated 6.7-liter LS6 V8 making 535 horsepower and 520 lb-ft of torque, replacing the 2026 model's 490-horsepower LT2.

Is the 2027 Corvette Z06 twin-turbocharged?

No. The 670-horsepower Z06 breathes naturally through its 5.5-liter LT6 flat-plane V8; turbochargers appear only on the ZR1 and ZR1X.

How much horsepower does the ZR1 have?

The ZR1 makes 1,064 horsepower from its twin-turbo 5.5-liter LT7 V8, and reaches a 233-mph top speed in low-drag configuration, the fastest of any Corvette.

What makes the ZR1X different from the ZR1?

The ZR1X pairs the ZR1's engine with a front electric motor, gaining all-wheel drive, 1,250 combined horsepower and a 1.89-second 0-60.

How quick is the 2027 Corvette to 60 mph?

The Stingray reaches 60 mph in about 2.8 seconds, the Z06 in 2.6, the ZR1 in 2.3 and the ZR1X in 1.89 seconds, each with available equipment.

What is the top speed of the 2027 Corvette?

The ZR1 leads at 233 mph in low-drag form. The other models are lower but still well into supercar territory; exact figures vary by configuration.

Does the 2027 Corvette require premium fuel?

Yes, every 2027 Corvette engine calls for premium fuel. A federal Gas Guzzler tax applies to the three thirstiest models, the Z06, ZR1 and ZR1X, and is collected once at the sale.

Features and Technology

What screens does the 2027 Corvette have?

Every model has a 12.7-inch center touchscreen and a 14-inch driver display, and the performance models add a 6.6-inch auxiliary touchscreen angled toward the driver.

How does the 2027 Corvette connect to my phone?

It uses Google Built-in, so Maps, the Assistant and the Play store are native to the car, and wireless phone projection is standard. We confirm the exact setup on the specific car at the counter.

Does the 2027 Corvette offer Super Cruise?

No. Super Cruise and adaptive cruise are Chevrolet SUV and truck features, not Corvette ones; the car's standard aids are Automatic Emergency Braking and Forward Collision Alert.

What audio system comes in the 2027 Corvette?

Every Corvette ships with Bose audio; the upper levels swap in a 14-speaker Performance Series system, and a wireless charging pad sits in the console.

What is the Performance Data Recorder?

An available feature on track-minded builds, it films your laps with data laid over the footage; it becomes standard from the second equipment level on most models.

Trim Differences

How do the Corvette 1LT and 3LT trims compare?

They share the engine and drivetrain. The 3LT adds premium GT2 Napa-leather seats, custom interior trim, more color choices and, over the 1LT, the mid-level comfort and tech features. The 2LT sits between them.

Should I choose the Stingray or the Grand Sport?

Both use the 535-horsepower LS6. The Grand Sport adds the wider body, Magnetic Selective Ride Control and Z52 track hardware for about $15,000 more, and it is the pick for maximum grip and the wide-body look. The Stingray is the pick for the same engine in the lighter, narrower body, and it is the most accessible way into the lineup.

Which 2027 Corvette is best for daily driving?

The Stingray and Grand Sport are the most livable day to day, with the broadest tire choices and the most comfortable ride. All five are usable daily, but the track-focused models ride firmer and wear tires faster.

Do all 2027 Corvette models come as a convertible?

Yes. Every model, from Stingray to ZR1X, is offered as a coupe with a removable roof panel or a power hardtop convertible, usually for about $7,000 more.

Service and Ownership

How often does the 2027 Corvette need servicing?

Oil changes follow the GM Oil Life System, which signals when service is due, and at least once a year regardless. Tires are rotated at each oil service. See the maintenance and service page for the full schedule.

Is a Corvette expensive to own?

Routine maintenance is ordinary; the real variables are performance tires, brakes and premium fuel, which cost more if you drive hard. The warranty covers the first years of repairs.

What warranty does the 2027 Corvette carry?

The Corvette carries 3 years/36,000 miles basic, 5 years/60,000 miles powertrain and 6 years/100,000 miles rust-through coverage.

Is the 2027 Corvette reliable?

The C8 platform is well proven and the engines are built by hand to withstand sustained performance use. On-schedule service is what protects both reliability and resale value.
