Naturally, the mid-engine layout has changed the design of the Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray. The front has become shorter, and the cabin is shifted forward.

At the same time, the new Corvette has retained its familiar angular style. Both the front and back look familiar and somewhat resemble the predecessor. The roof is still removable.

The Corvette C8 Stingray’s cabin is designed in a cockpit style, meaning a very high tunnel separates the driver and passenger.

The coupe features a 12-inch virtual dashboard, and the steering wheel is flattened on top and bottom. Instead of a gear lever, there are now buttons, and there are paddle shifters as well. The trim includes leather, Alcantara, and carbon fiber. Bucket-style sports seats are offered for an extra charge. The car now has two trunks (front and rear) with a total volume of 357 liters.

Developers claim that the switch to a mid-engine layout significantly improved the coupe’s handling. The Corvette C8 has received an electronic rear differential, and adaptive dampers and a Z51 sport package with stiffer suspension and larger Brembo brakes are available for an extra charge.
