Automotive enthusiasts have been waiting extremely hard for the new Chevrolet Corvette, which always marks an era in the American automotive industry and at the same time defines the American dream. This time the dream of the super category.
A new generation (C8) legendary Chevrolet Corvette serves with a mid-mounted engine for the first time in history, which in practice means that the center of gravity is ideally distributed. And the engine instead of in the nose - installed right behind the driver. The latter has been developed completely anew and this time breathes with 6.2 liter lungs in unison 8 cylinders and develop good ones 495 horsepower (369 kW) which is completely sufficient for it to compete with the existing ones Ford GT, McLaren 720S, Audi R8... i.e. supercategorizers.
Of course, it remains atmospheric, which in the modern world of engines is a real miracle. A new one Corvette it should reach a hundred in less than 3 seconds, and even with this data, it does not want to fall behind. That's also why it seems to be Corvette, as a brand raises the car from the dust of the second category - into the class of the best. For a Corvette, you'll shell out the bare minimum 60,000 US dollars, which is a small amount of money for this kind of "beast".
