Iconic American Cars

The 2016 Corvette Stingray Blends Performance and Iconic Style

The 2016 Corvette Stingray is only the latest and greatest iteration of one of the most celebrated and iconic vehicles of all time, and one of the most endearing symbols of Americana ever, the Chevrolet Corvette.

This vehicle is powered by a 6.2-liter V8 engine that pumps out as much as 455 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. The base transmission takes the form of a seven-speed manual with automatic revolution-matching. Buyers will also have the option of the eight-speed automatic transmission, although both transmissions will come with launch control mode and power the rear wheels alone.

The 2016 Corvette Stingray is an incredibly smoothly designed vehicle. It's difficult for a new Corvette to stand out because of the illustrious line of cars that precede it, but this vehicle still manages to capture the attention.
