All-new for the 2014 model year, he Corvette Stingray enters the 2015 model year with a small but significant handful of updates, ncluding an all-new 8-speed automatic transmission. Visually, owever, t’s still the edgy new design that is at once instantly recognizable as a Corvette, ut also completely new and fresh. Styling takes the Corvette in new directions, ven if around familiar themes, oth inside and out. Sharp lines, risp angles, nd vents aplenty give a definite supercar air to the design that matches the car’s performance. It’s wide, ow, nd looks fast even at a dead stop. Inside, he Stingray’s design is much improved over the previous generation of the Corvette, nd while nothing changes here for the 2015 model year, t retains its refreshing and surprisingly luxurious look. Under the hood of the 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray is the same 6.2-liter LT1 V-8 engine introduced last year, till generating the same 455 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. A 7-speed manual transmission is also available, ffering an enhanced version of its automatic rev-matching downshift feature for 2015. The new addition to the powertrain is an all-new, n-house designed and built 8-speed automatic transmission with steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters. The new transmission is the highlight of the technical updates to the 2015 Corvette Stingray, nd it aims for the strongest competition on the non-manual market: Porsche’s PDK. Chevrolet claims the new 8-speed executes shifts a full 80 milliseconds quicker than the German dual-clutch unit, easured from the time the driver requests the shift to the time it’s actually executed. That’s a small fraction of a second, ut it can make a big difference when driving a very fast car at the limit. And the 2015 Stingray is a very fast car, ndeed. That 455-horsepower V-8 engine offers plenty of push to accelerate the car, itting 0-60 mph in just 3.8 seconds—or even faster at 3.7 seconds with the new 8-speed automatic. Quarter mile times are a mere 11.9 seconds with the automatic, r 12.0 with the seven-speed manual. Whether tackling the straights or the curves, he Stingray offers ample performance, ith surprising grip, imble reflexes, nd a great deal of communication through the seat, edals, nd steering wheel, ll of which inspires driver confidence. A Z51 package is available to further enhance the Stingray’s performance. Wilson Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Chevrolet located in Winnsboro, C 29180; just 15 minutes from Killian Rd, olumbia Sc.
