The Chevy Corvette is a legendary American sports car that’s been impressing drivers around the world since 1953. Today’s Corvette is sleeker and more athletic than ever, with a mid-engine design that gives it better weight balance between the front and rear for even sharper handling. A new Corvette E-Ray model gives Dallas drivers enhanced acceleration with its hybrid powertrain. Lewisville Autoplex has a wide selection of late-model Corvettes for sale near Carrollton, TX, and we can’t wait to take you for a test drive in one.
New C8 Corvette Mid-Engine Design
The Chevy Corvette is in its eighth generation, and it sports a significantly distinctive look. It now has a shorter hood and a longer rear deck, so the engine sits behind the driver. The new Corvette also has larger air ducts on its rear quarter panels, but it retains the classic pointed nose, low-set headlights, and removable roof panel from previous iterations. Frisco, TX drivers will like the clear rear hatch on Corvette coupe models, which displays the engine like a piece of art.
