Few cars turn heads in a parking lot quite like a Corvette, and even fewer back up the look with this much muscle. At Ray Skillman Chevrolet, we help drivers shopping for a Chevy Corvette near Bloomington, IN, find the model and trim that best match how they love to drive.
Chevrolet’s Corvette family now spans six models, from the everyday Stingray to the track-hungry ZR1X, and every one is offered as a coupe or a hardtop convertible.
The Stingray comes in three trims, and each one builds on the last. Entry-level 1LT models cover the essentials with a 10-speaker Bose system, the removable roof panel on coupes, and wireless charging. The 2LT adds heated and ventilated seats, a Head-Up Display, a 14-speaker Bose Performance Series system, and the Performance Data Recorder for capturing your favorite drives.
At the top, the 3LT wraps the instrument panel and doors in custom leather, adds sueded microfiber upper trim, and offers 14 interior color choices. The chart below lays out the differences.

The Stingray is where most Corvette stories begin, and it begins with a bang. Its naturally aspirated LS6 6.7L V8 makes 535 horsepower and 520 lb-ft of torque, which Chevrolet says is the most torque ever from a naturally aspirated production V8. An 8-speed dual-clutch transmission handles the shifts, and with the available Z51 Performance Package, the Stingray can reach 60 mph in as little as 2.8 seconds.
Craving more? The rear-drive Grand Sport pairs that same V8 with standard Magnetic Ride Control, while the Grand Sport X adds a front electric motor for 721 combined horsepower and all-wheel drive. That extra grip makes the Grand Sport X a smart Chevy Corvette near Bloomington, IN, for drivers who don’t want to park the car when spring showers roll across southern Indiana. Above those sit the Z06 with its 670-horsepower flat-plane-crank 5.5L V8, the twin-turbo ZR1 at 1,064 horsepower, and the hybrid ZR1X, rated at 1,250 combined horsepower.
Slide behind the squared-off steering wheel, and you’ll notice how the whole dash wraps toward you. Stingray models feature three configurable screens: a 12.7-inch center display, a 14-inch Driver Information Center, and a 6.6-inch auxiliary touchscreen. Wireless phone projection and a wireless charging pad in the center console come standard, and Google built-in compatibility adds voice-driven apps and maps.
Track fans will get a kick out of the Performance App, which graphs horsepower and torque live as you drive. Drive modes let you shift the car’s personality from relaxed cruising to full attack, and available Performance Traction Management helps you find the limit with a safety net underneath.
Every Stingray trim includes an HD Rear Vision Camera and a Rear Camera Mirror, which helps a lot in a car that sits this low. Moving to the 2LT adds Side Blind Zone Alert and Rear Cross Traffic Alert, two features that make crowded parking lots and highway lane changes far less stressful. On the Grand Sport, Chevrolet also lists Automatic Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Alert, and Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking as standard.
Long drives treat your back better than you might expect from a sports car. The standard GT1 seats offer 8-way power adjustment and Mulan leather, and the GT2 seats on the 3LT use Napa leather seating surfaces. Convertible buyers get a power-retractable hardtop that lowers in 16 seconds at speeds up to 30 mph, so a sudden stretch of sunshine never goes to waste.

The Grand Sport X adds a front-mounted electric motor to the V8, which gives it all-wheel drive and 721 combined horsepower. The standard Grand Sport sends its 535 horsepower to the rear wheels only. Both models share the LS6 6.7L V8 and the 8-speed dual-clutch transmission.
