In 2020, the eighth-generation Chevrolet Corvette reimagined America’s longest running sports car. Gone was the previous seven generations’ front-engine layout, and introduced was a mid-engine configuration that delivered better balance and handling. Chevrolet added a hybrid powertrain and all-wheel drive in 2024 with the E-Ray to continue to modernize the Corvette’s spec sheet, marking the latest iteration of the Corvette as a transition point between the model’s storied past and future path.

Nicknamed the C8 Corvette, the car blended an exotic layout with supercar performance, starting with an accessible $58,995 MSRP. For the 2020 model year, the C8 was available as either a two-seat coupe or convertible, and was paired with the 6.2-liter LT2 V-8 that made 490 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque. The lone transmission was an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic, and the Z51 performance package was a popular choice for enthusiasts who looked to maximize the C8’s potential. Performance tests quoted 0-to-60 times as low as 2.8 seconds.

Chevy introduced the Z06 in 2023, which used a 5.5-liter flat-plane crank V-8 to produce a 670 hp—a record amount for a naturally aspirated V-8 installed in a production car. The E-Ray debuted in 2024, pairing the LT2 V-8 with a front-mounted electric motor to become the first hybrid Corvette. It was also the first Corvette to offer all-wheel drive.

By the 2025 model year, list prices had increased to $69,995 for the standard coupe, $76,995 for the convertible, and $112,100 for the Z06. Also new was the top-of-the-line C8 ZR1, which boasted 1064h p and 828 lb-ft of torque from a twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter LT7 engine. Top speed was stated as 233 mph thanks to all that power and improved aerodynamics. The retail price started at $175,195, making it the most extreme Corvette in more ways than one.
