The 2027 Corvette Stingray Boasts 200 MPH Top Speed

It’s official: The 2027 Corvette Stingray has officially broken 200 miles per hour.

And that’s no small feat. According to the Chevrolet press release, a vehicle needs the right combination of high power and low drag to reach 200 miles per hour, but even then, it’s not always possible.

That’s why you need a legend to show you how it’s done. And that legend is none other than the 2027 Chevy Corvette Stingray.

Breaking the Barrier

The incredible achievement of hitting 200 miles per hour was possible thanks to the power of the new LS6 6.7-liter V8 engine, which is an ideal match for the Corvette Stingray.

The Stingray’s narrow-bodied design delivers less drag compared to the wide-bodied design of the Corvette Z06 and ZR1, so when you add the extra power from the LS6 6.7-liter V8 engine, you have the right recipe for a checkered flag finish.

The LS6 6.7-liter V8 engine boasts 535 horsepower, 520 pound-feet of torque, and a 13.0:1 compression for a thrilling driving experience. But even though the Corvette Stingray has managed a historic milestone, it still maintains versatility for everyday driving.

“For the LS6, we’ve honored the historic principles of large-displacement small-block V8s, but not in a benign way, like ‘I’ve been there, seen that,” said small block assistant chief engineer Mike Kociba. “So you get that low-speed torque for when you’re canyon cruising and driving around town that makes the Corvette so drivable, yet we still have that high end power to do insane things: 200 miles per hour is quite a milestone.”

What We Know About the 2027 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray

The new 2027 Corvette Stingray is a masterclass in performance, as shown by its 200-mile-per-hour-barrier-breaking run. But the Stingray offers other numbers that only add to its high-powered persona, including a 0-60 mile-per-hour time of 2.8 seconds and a quarter-mile time of 11 seconds.

Unmatched power comes in, dare we say, a pretty package. The Stingray for 2027 is designed to be noticed, and its exterior pairs beautifully with any of its ten color options.

The 2027 Corvette Stingray adds two new paint colors: Admiral Blue Metallic and Pitch Gray Metallic.  These shades join the following striking color options:

• Torch Red
• Sebring Orange Tintcoat
• Roswell Green Metallic
• Arctic White
• Black
• Competition Yellow Tintcoat Metallic
• Blade Silver Metallic
• Red Mist Metallic Tintcoat

Beauty, as we’ve come to realize, is more than what’s on the outside. Luckily, the inside is just as breathtaking as the outside.

With options ranging from the race-ready Asymmetrical Adrenaline Red with Jet Black to the electric Santorini Blue with Jet Black to the rich Natural Dipped tan interior, rest assured that each interior configuration offers premium features and a character all its own.

Inside, drivers will be privy to advanced technology like a 12.7-inch diagonal center console display, a 14-inch diagonal Driver Information Center, and a 6.6-inch diagonal touchscreen auxiliary display. Plus, with a wireless charging pad and wireless phone projection, the Stingray keeps you connected wherever you go.
