Corvette Name 2020 MotorTrend Car of the Year
The Chevy Corvette has been around for many years, but recently, it has seen some significant changes. These changes appear to be working well because MotorTrend names the Corvette the 2020 Car of the Year. Learn more about this below.
In 1953, the Chevy Corvette was first introduced. Since 1953, this vehicle has had the engine under the front hood of the vehicle. Now, for 2020, the Corvette will have its engine behind the seats, or in the middle of the car. This engine is a 6.2-liter V8 engine that gives you 490-horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque. It also gives you an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission standard.
In addition to the impressive mid-engine, this vehicle also offers you some great performance features. You can get features like performance Brembo brakes, a performance suspension, an electronic limited-slip differential, and more. There are also six drive modes for this vehicle which include Tour, Sport, Weather, Track, My Mode, and Z Mode.
“It’s an honor for the Corvette team to receive this coveted award from MotorTrend against the best the industry has to offer,” said Tadge Juechter, Corvette executive chief engineer. “Our design and engineering teams spent several years sweating the details to deliver the first mid-engine Corvette. To have a third party validate our hard work makes it all worthwhile.”
However, the performance is not the only thing that the 2020 Chevy Corvette has going for it. This vehicle also has some pretty great interior features. On the inside of the 2020 Corvette, you can find technology features like Chevy Infotainment 3 Plus interface, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, an 8-inch touchscreen display, Bluetooth, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and more. You also have the option to upgrade to get features like a 14-speaker Bose Performance sound system, wireless device charging, and a navigation system.
