After its transformative redesign in 2020, the C8 2023 Corvette surpassed a number of high-end sports car rivals in our luxury sport coupe rankings. And thanks to a few additional tech improvements, it's likely cemented its place at the top of the heap for a while to come. The Corvette is bonkers fast, it handles beautifully, and it still manages traffic and daily errands. The styling may be controversial, but its price and performance certainly are not.

The centerpiece of the new Z06 is the all-new LT6 5.5-liter V8 engine. It's not turbocharged or supercharged, and it's actually smaller than the standard 6.2-liter V8, but it packs some race-inspired technology. The Z06's V8 features a lightweight flat-plane crankshaft that's normally found on high-dollar exotic cars, and it has a sky-high redline of 8,600 rpm. That's 2,100 rpm higher than the standard Corvette Stingray's. Those enchantments, among others, allow the engine to generate a whopping 670 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque.
But that's just the beginning. When compared to the standard Corvette, the Z06 also includes larger and wider wheels, gripper tires, performance-oriented adaptive suspension dampers and larger Brembo brakes. It also has distinct front and rear styling and a shorter drive ratio for quicker acceleration. Speaking of acceleration, Chevy claims the Z06 can blast from 0 to 60 mph in an astonishing 2.6 seconds.
If you're in the market for a highly capable sports car, the Corvette's blend of performance, comfort and price makes it hard to pass up. And if you want more, the Z06's Ferrari-like capability is well worth its six-figure price tag. When comparing performance numbers, the Corvette can compete against more expensive vehicles, but if you want to stay in its price range, take a look at the BMW M4 and Porsche Cayman. If you have a larger budget, consider the Z06, and make sure to check out the Porsche 911. To help you decide, read our test team's full review of the Corvette in the Edmunds Expert Rating below.
What's it like to live with?
Edmunds bought a 2020 Chevrolet Corvette, and so far we have put over 25,000 miles on it. We love its performance and comfort, and surprisingly for a V8-powered sports car, its average mpg. We've kept track of its maintenance costs and share what we think of its technology and what it's like as a daily driver. For complete details and for several videos, make sure to check out our Corvette long-term road test.Edmunds Expert Rating

Great
8.5
out of 10
We drove the 2023 Chevrolet Corvette on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.
Performance
9/10
How does the Corvette drive? Even in a class full of impressive performance cars, the Corvette stands out. In Edmunds' testing and using the car's launch control system, our 3LT coupe test car with all-season tires ripped from 0 to 60 mph in 3.6 seconds (3.3 seconds with 1 foot of rollout) and cleared the quarter mile in 11.8 seconds at more than 118 mph. Both times are very quick, and if you opt for the Z51 Performance package, those numbers are 3.4 seconds (3.2 seconds with rollout) and 11.5 seconds at 120 mph, respectively. Braking performance is excellent though not quite class-leading, but that's largely due to the narrow front tires. Our 3LT test car came to a stop from 60 mph in 109 feet; the Z51 Corvette with its sticker tires needed just 105 feet.
Steering and handling are both impressive, and the car's considerable limits can be explored even by drivers with only moderate skill. Likewise, the new eight-speed automatic transmission impresses with its smooth and quick shifts.

Comfort
8.5/10
How comfortable is the Corvette? The Corvette is one of the more comfortable cars in its class. Our test car had the optional MagneRide adaptive suspension. We found that it offers excellent compliance over a variety of road surfaces and smooths out bumps that would likely upset other sports cars. Adding to the comfort is the relative lack of wind and engine noise, though tire noise can be prominent on rough road surfaces.
The Corvette's GT2 bucket seats are road-trip champions that can help you stay comfortable over thousands of miles. They're less aggressive than the optional Competition seats but still hold you in place during high-speed cornering, and they're well padded enough for long-distance comfort. The climate system provides good airflow from its stylish vents, and the heated and ventilated seat functions work well.

The climate system provides good airflow from its stylish vents, and the heated and ventilated seat functions work well.
Interior
7.5/10
How’s the interior? Maybe just as striking as the exterior design, the Corvette's interior is certainly eye-catching. While it is relatively easy to use, there is quite a bit of controversy around the placement and design of the climate control buttons. They simply aren't arranged intuitively. Passengers might also feel left out since there's little they can interact with.
It's a bit more difficult to get into the Corvette than some other higher-riding sports cars, and getting out of it is even more of a challenge. This predicament is exacerbated in tight parking situations. But buyers will likely figure out a way and won't be too bothered. The compromised rear visibility will take some getting used to as well. Chevy added a camera-based rearview mirror display to help out, but the blind spots created by the rear pillars are still significant.

Chevy added a camera-based rearview mirror display to help out, but the blind spots created by the rear pillars are still significant.
Technology
8.5/10
How’s the tech? The Corvette benefits from Chevrolet's newest infotainment system. The graphics are crisp and modern, and the touchscreen's proximity to the driver makes it easy to operate. As small as the interior is, the optional 14-speaker Bose audio system manages to produce high-quality sound with plenty of power. Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity is also standard, and both smartphone integration systems worked well during our test.
It lacks adaptive cruise control and emergency braking, but rear cross-traffic warning is a very welcome feature, as are the cameras that help with low-speed maneuvering. An optional nose-lift system can use GPS to remember steep driveways, which is handier than you might imagine. Of course, Chevrolet's Performance Traction Management software is available and excellent.

Storage
8/10
How’s the storage? Mid-engine sports cars aren't well known for their practicality. But the Corvette makes pretty good use of its available space. The front trunk can hold a couple of grocery bags, and the rear is big enough for two golf bags. Rear storage all but disappears, however, when you store the Corvette coupe's removable roof panel in the trunk.
Similar to other cars in this class, interior storage is limited to a small, shallow center console box and an equally small pair of cupholders. The door pockets are long and lined with felt but can't hold a whole lot.

Fuel Economy
8/10
How’s the fuel economy? The Corvette gets an EPA-estimated 19 mpg (16 city/24 highway). Our test Corvette returned 21.8 mpg on our 120-mile mixed-driving evaluation route — not bad when you consider the sort of spirited driving that the Corvette encourages. As with all high-performance cars, single digits are just a good road and a heavy foot away.
Value
8/10
Is the Corvette a good value? If you don't find performance to be the strongest argument for buying the Corvette, perhaps it's the pricing. Starting around $60,000, the Corvette is a relative bargain among performance cars. Even if you outfit it with a number of options, whether you're talking the upgraded performance of the Z51 or the enhanced luxury of the 3LT, it's still a reasonable $75,000-$80,000. Build quality has always been a sore spot with Corvettes, but this generation doesn't have that problem. The interior looks and feels premium, and paint and panel gaps are similarly well done.
The three-year/36,000-mile basic warranty and the five-year/50,000-mile powertrain warranty are average for the class. Roadside assistance is covered for the first five years/60,000 miles and the first maintenance visit is free.

Wildcard
10/10
It's easy to be impressed by the C8. Its performance rivals that of sports cars costing nearly twice as much, yet the Corvette is still everyday comfortable and practical. But it's the performance that shocks the most. The transformation has been nothing short of jaw-dropping.
2023 Chevrolet Corvette trim level differences
The 2023 Chevrolet Corvette and high-performance Z06 model are available as coupes (with a manually removable roof panel) or as convertibles featuring a power-retractable hardtop. The standard Corvette Stingray is available in 1LT, 2LT and 3LT trim levels. The Z06 is available in 1LZ, 2LZ and 3LZ trim levels. Compare the 2023 Chevrolet Corvette trim levels in-depth.
Which Corvette trim does Edmunds recommend?
The Corvette's midlevel 2LT trim (or the Z06's 2LZ trim) is the one to get for the most value. It includes the generous list of features found in the base trim and adds heated and ventilated seats, a front-view parking camera to help prevent damaging the Corvette's nose, and blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning for a safer driving experience.

2023 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray 2dr Convertible w/3LT (6.2L 8cyl 8AM)
The C8is my 4th Corvette. It is by far the best Corvette ever produced. Plenty of room, turns on a dime. The most composed sports car I have ever driven and I have driven most of them. I bought this car without a rest drive and after owning and driving it my opinion is better than I ever thought it could be.. unbelievable. It took me 13 months and 22 days to receive the car as it needed … to be ordered and there is a waiting list. You can check out my dealer review elsewhere on Edmunds. I highly recommend this car.

2023 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray 2dr Coupe w/2LT (6.2L 8cyl 8AM)
I have a 2023 Corvette, and i do love the car! but a car is worthless if its not reliable. GM is selling these cars at a premium with market value adjustments knowing there is a Transmission issue with these vehicles! they simply don't care and will throw parts at it later... that is a problem and should be addressed at a Corporate level.

My 2023 Chevrolet Corvette is in the shop for almost 3 months. Chevrolet doesn't have the headlights for my C8 and they can't make them. At this point they can't give me a date, I'm still paying the monthly payment of my car and I don't know when I''ll have it back.
