2022 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible 3LT Z51 – Mid-Engine American Icon
The 2022 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible represents the eighth generation of America’s sports car and the first to adopt a mid-engine layout. Showing just 1,700 miles, this example is finished in Hypersonic Gray Metallic with dual Edge Yellow racing stripes over a Sky Cool Gray and Strike Yellow leather interior. Power comes from a 6.2-liter LT2 V8 producing 495 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque when paired with the Z51 performance exhaust. Output is sent to the rear wheels via an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transaxle and a limited-slip differential.
Exterior Features
This C8 Corvette is equipped with a power-retractable hardtop, LED headlights, power-folding mirrors, front and rear cameras, rear Park Assist sensors, and a high-wing spoiler. Quad exhaust outlets and C8.R-style decals further emphasize its performance character. It rides on black 19″ front and 20″ rear Trident wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport tires. Braking is managed by yellow Z51 Brembo calipers over ventilated rotors. A Magnetic Selective Ride Control system and front suspension lift ensure balance between comfort and performance.
Interior & Technology
Inside, the cabin features heated and ventilated GT2 bucket seats upholstered in Sky Cool Gray and Strike Yellow leather with yellow seatbelts. Amenities include carbon-fiber trim, a head-up display, rear cross-traffic alert, blind-spot monitoring, dual-zone climate control, and cruise control. An 8″ touchscreen infotainment system provides navigation and smartphone integration, paired with a 14-speaker Bose premium audio system.
The microfiber-wrapped heated steering wheel with paddle shifters fronts a 12″ configurable digital cluster displaying a central tachometer, oil pressure, temperature, and other vehicle data.
