Corvette in the UK: A New Horizon

For years, the only way to own a Corvette in the UK was through importing—complete with the steering wheel on the wrong side. But now, thanks to Lumen Automotive, right-hand drive Corvettes are available for enthusiasts here in the UK.

Pricing: A Competitive Edge

The Corvette Stingray comes in at nearly £95,000, putting its price in line with a fully loaded BMW M4 and undercutting the Mercedes-AMG GT by £7,000. Previously, the Ford Mustang was the only right-hand drive American muscle car available in the UK, but now, the Corvette broadens the options.

Performance: A Beast on the Road

- Engine: 6.2-litre naturally-aspirated V8
- Power: 475 hp, 613 Nm torque
- Acceleration: 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds

The mid-engine layout sets this Corvette apart from its predecessors, solidifying its supercar status. With performance over half a second faster than the BMW M4 Competition, this Corvette promises thrilling drives and head-turning looks, all enhanced by its exhilarating V8 roar.

Interior: Where Luxury Meets Sport

The Stingray’s cabin is as captivating as its exterior. A driver-focused wrap-around dashboard and a tall center console amplify its sporty vibe. Standard features include:
- Infotainment: 12.0-inch system
- Sound System: 14-speaker premium setup

While these features provide an exceptional audio experience, the engine’s symphony is more than enough to delight any enthusiast.
