AESTHETIC IMPACT. Every inch of the

Corvette Stingray exterior is shaped to
enhance high-performance driving. Data
from the Corvette Racing program was used
to help balance front and rear grip.

STRONGER, lIGHTER CARbON fIbER.

Rigid, race-car-inspired carbon fiber and
carbon-nano-composite underbody panels
reduce weight to achieve optimal handling,
balance and acceleration.

OPEN-TOP COUPE. The Stingray coupe

can also become an open-top vehicle, with
a carbon-fiber roof panel so light just one
person can remove it and stow it in the
trunk. Available removable roof panel
options include: body color, visible carbon
fiber and transparent.

WORlDWIDE APPlAUSE. Stingray was

named the 2014 North American Car of the
Year and won praise around the world for
its beauty and precision. Edmunds.com
also recognized the 2014 Stingray as a
“Top-Rated Vehicle” in its class.

rigid, lightweight aluminum frame structure.

PUSH-bUTTON TOP AND TONNEAU COVER.

The convertible features a fully electronic
top that can be lowered remotely using the
key fob, even while driving at speeds up to
30 mph. With the top up, a premium design
ensures maximum sound absorption for a
quiet cabin. And when you decide to put the
top down, it hides beneath a body-color
tonneau cover that flows down in a stunning
“waterfall” between the seats.

kEEPING COOl WITH z51. Available on

coupe and convertible, the Z51 Performance
Package includes dual brake ducts that
transport air from the front grille through
the wheelwells to effectively cool the front
brakes and expel heat. This reduces brake
fade and optimizes stopping performance.

NEW zf1 APPEARANCE PACkAGE. Giving

the provocative Stingray exterior even
more visual impact is the new-for-2015
ZF1 Appearance Package. Available on
Stingray coupe and convertible without the
Z51 Performance Package, ZF1 includes
19-inch front and 20-inch rear wheels and
the Z51 rear spoiler.
