5 reasons to buy the 2023 Chevrolet Corvette

1. Inspiring engine power

If you're thinking about buying a Corvette, power and punchy performance are probably at the top of your priority list. The 2023 Corvette doesn't disappoint with two available mid-mounted engines. Standard on the Corvette Stingray is a zesty 6.2L V8 at 490 hp. Even more power can be found in the performance-oriented Corvette Z06, which is outfitted with a 5.5L V8 at a whopping 670 hp.

2. Eye-catching design

With its sleek and distinctive design, the 2023 Chevy Corvette is the type of car that turns heads at traffic lights. Notable exterior styling features include a striking wide-body design, pointed, tapered front end, and carbon-fiber wheels (on Z06 models). Some models, including those equipped with the available Z07 Performance Package, are also equipped with carbon-fiber aerodynamic enhancements for an even more eye-catching look.

3. Impressive standard equipment

Despite its focus on performance as a sports car, the 2023 Chevrolet Corvette doesn't lack when it comes to its interior or standard equipment. Even on the base Stingray 1LT trim, you can expect such features as an eight-inch touchscreen display, a robust 10-speaker sound system, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, power-adjustable leather seats, and seamless smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto. This smartphone integration is also unique in that it can be done wirelessly for added convenience. Stepping up to the range-topping 3LZ trim adds even more indulgent equipment, including leather-wrapped interior panels, GT2 sport seats, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel with heating functions.

4. Coupe and convertible body styles

Whether you're looking for a coupe or convertible sports car, you have options with the 2023 Chevrolet Corvette. Both the Corvette Stingray and Corvette Z06 are offered in coupe and power-retractable convertible body styles. Even if you opt for the coupe, you'll enjoy having a roof panel that can be manually removed for those days when you want to hit the open road and feel the wind blow through your hair.

5. Impeccable handling

You don't need to have a lot of experience with sports cars to enjoy the exciting power and impressive handling offered by the 2023 Corvette. Its low profile and ground clearance, combined with its aerodynamic body styling and smaller size, make this vehicle a breeze to maneuver around sharp corners and into tight parking spots.
