As a reminder, the 2024 Chevy Corvette Stingray is powered by the naturally aspirated 6.2L V8 LT2 gasoline engine, delivering a maximum of 490 horsepower at 6,450 rpm and 465 pound-feet of torque at 5,150 rpm in its standard configuration. Opting for the factory performance exhaust option boosts output by an additional 5 horsepower and 5 pound-feet of torque. The power is channeled through the M1L eight-speed automatic transmission, a product of collaboration with Tremec. The Y2 platform provides the foundation for this remarkable machine, with production taking place at the GM Bowling Green plant in Kentucky.
