The sixth model year of the C8 Chevrolet Corvette comes with a price hike. The updated ‘Vette is more expensive, but there are option features that have just become more affordable.
Customers can choose one of the three variants available: the C8 Stingray, E-Ray, and Z06, either as a Coupe or a Convertible. The only one that did not move an inch (or a dollar) in terms of pricing is the entry-level Stingray. The Stingray 1LT Coupe continues to start at $69,995.
Meanwhile, GM prepared an approximately $2,000 price hike for the other two. The E-Ray 1LZ Coupe starts at $108,595 from the previous $104,900 for the 2024 model year, while the range-topping Z06 is a $113,900 affair instead of $110,900 from last year. Pricing includes the destination freight charge of $1,695, which remains unchanged for the 2025 model year.
The 2025 C8 Chevrolet Corvette is powered by the same 6.2-liter V8 LT2 engine, rated at 495 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque when it comes to the Stingray. A Tremec M1L eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission helps the V8 put the power down through the rear wheels.
The E-Ray goes one step further with 655 horsepower, coming from the same 6.2-liter V8 in an all-wheel drive setup. The Z06 is set in motion by the 5.5-liter V8 LT6, which pumps out 670 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque.

Chevrolet is working on a new version, the ZR1, which will be positioned above the Z06 in terms of power, performance, and pricing. The automaker started teasing the ZR1 back in April and will unveil it on July 25, which is today, at the Miami Track Concours Club.
Many customers are reportedly already on the waiting list, even though pricing has yet to be announced.
