The 2027 Corvette Receives Major Updates

Without appearing significantly different on the outside, the 2027 Corvette will feature numerous updates, primarily on the mechanical side.

At the heart of these changes is the new 6.7-liter LS6 V8 engine, which will undoubtedly draw the most attention. This powerplant — displacing 409 cubic inches — will become the standard engine for the Stingray, Grand Sport, and Grand Sport X models.

With a 13.0:1 compression ratio, this naturally aspirated engine will produce 535 horsepower and 520 lb-ft of torque.

The Z51 performance package will feature a 5.56:1 final drive ratio, while Chevrolet has selected the newly introduced Michelin Pilot Sport S 5 tires.

A series of aerodynamic enhancements has also been developed to optimize track performance, and customers will have the option of a center-exit rear exhaust system.
