2025 Chevy Corvette Coupe Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2025 Chevrolet Corvette, high-performance Z06, E-Ray hybrid and extreme ZR1 are each available as a coupe (with a manually removable roof panel) or as a convertible featuring a power-retractable hardtop. The standard Corvette Stingray comes in 1LT, 2LT and 3LT trim levels, while the Z06 and E-Ray are offered in 1LZ, 2LZ and 3LZ trims. The ZR1 will be offered in two trims, 1LZ and 3LZ. Keep reading for our breakdown of the Corvette's engines, features and key options.

The Stingray, Z06 and ZR1 come with mid-mounted V8 engines matched to an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. The standard Stingray's 6.2-liter V8 engine makes 490 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque, while the Z06 gets a high-revving 5.5-liter V8 making 670 hp and 460 lb-ft of torque. The new range-topping ZR1 adds a pair of turbochargers to the Z06's V8, for a total output of 1,064 hp and 828 lb-ft of torque. Power is routed to the rear wheels via an upgraded version of the eight-speed dual-clutch automatic.

The E-Ray comes with the 6.2-liter V8, slightly uprated to 495 hp and 470 lb-ft and adds an electric motor that sends power to the front wheels. Together, the V8 and electric motor generate 655 hp and give the Corvette all-wheel-drive capability.

Which Corvette trim does Edmunds recommend?

We think the midlevel 2LT trim (or the Z06's 2LZ trim) hits the sweet spot for performance and value. It costs about 10% more than the base trim, but it adds extras such as heated and ventilated seats, wireless phone charging, navigation, an upgraded Bose audio system, and blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning.
