2014 Chevrolet Corvette Video

More 2013 Detroit Auto Show Coverage 

Powered by a new 6.2-liter V-8 engine that makes 450 horsepower and 450 pounds-feet of torque, this seventh-generation Corvette is longer, lighter, lower and wider. Chevrolet estimates that the new ‘Vette will do zero to 60 mph in less than four seconds, thanks to the help of a new seven-speed manual transmission with rev matching or an available six-speed automatic.

Interior highlights include a choice of two seats — with one for competitive track driving — a standard 8-inch touch-screen with Chevy MyLink multimedia system, carbon fiber accents and aluminum trim. Cars.com reviewer Kelsey Mays explains why he thinks the new 2014 Corvette, which is set to go on sale later this summer, will make a big impression. Watch the video below.
