Chevrolet's iconic sports car reaches a historic milestone while remaining one of the best performance values on the road The Chevrolet Corvette has always represented American performance at its best. For more than 70 years, it has evolved from a stylish two-seat roadster into one of the world's most respected sports cars—earning comparisons with exotic European supercars while remaining attainable for everyday enthusiasts. Now, Chevrolet has reached another major milestone. The 2027 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has officially surpassed 200 mph in a validated top-speed run, making it the most affordable new production vehicle capable of reaching the 200-mph mark. Starting at $73,495, the Stingray delivers supercar-level performance without a six-figure price tag. For sports car enthusiasts throughout Seattle, Burien, Bellevue, Renton, Kent, Auburn, and the greater Puget Sound region, it's another reminder that Corvette continues to raise the bar for performance, engineering, and value. A Historic Milestone for an American Icon Breaking the 200-mph barrier has long been reserved for ultra-exclusive supercars costing hundreds of thousands—or even millions—of dollars. The 2027 Corvette Stingray changes that. Chevrolet achieved the milestone using a base 1LT Stingray, demonstrating that extraordinary performance isn't limited to the highest trim levels or special editions. The increase comes thanks to Chevrolet's new 6.7-liter Gen-6 LS6 V8, producing 535 horsepower and 520 lb-ft of torque. It's a significant achievement that highlights how far the Corvette has come since the first model debuted in 1953 with a top speed of about 105 mph. What Makes the 2027 Corvette Stingray So Special? The new Stingray isn't just faster. It's more refined, more capable, and more technologically advanced than ever before. Highlights include: Official 200 mph top speed New 6.7L LS6 naturally aspirated V8 535 horsepower 520 lb-ft of torque Available 0–60 mph in as little as 2.8 seconds with the Z51 Performance Package Mid-engine balance for exceptional handling Dual-clutch 8-speed transmission Driver-focused digital cockpit Whether you're carving through mountain roads or enjoying a scenic drive along the Washington coast, the Stingray delivers a driving experience that few vehicles can match. Supercar Performance Without the Supercar Price One reason the Corvette has remained so popular is its ability to deliver extraordinary performance for the money. According to Chevrolet, the 2027 Stingray is now the least expensive new vehicle capable of reaching 200 mph. That means buyers can enjoy performance typically associated with exotic brands while benefiting from: Chevrolet engineering Nationwide dealer support Everyday drivability Proven reliability Lower ownership costs than many imported supercars For many enthusiasts, that's what has always made Corvette unique. Technology Keeps Improving Alongside Performance While headlines focus on horsepower, today's Corvette is also packed with modern technology. Drivers benefit from features such as: Large digital displays Performance Data Recorder (available) Wireless smartphone integration Selectable drive modes Available Magnetic Ride Control Advanced driver information systems The result is a sports car that's surprisingly comfortable and connected during everyday driving. So, whether you're commuting through Seattle or heading out for a weekend escape, the Stingray feels just as modern as it is fast. Built for Drivers Who Love to Drive The Corvette isn't designed for one type of owner. It's popular among: Weekend touring enthusiasts Performance driving enthusiasts Collectors Empty nesters Professionals looking for an attainable dream car Drivers upgrading from European sports cars Many owners discover that the Corvette is more practical than they expected, with comfortable seating, usable cargo space, and excellent highway manners. Frequently Asked Questions How fast is the 2027 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? The 2027 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has an officially validated top speed of 200 mph, making it the most affordable new production vehicle capable of reaching that milestone. How much horsepower does the new Corvette Stingray have? The new 6.7-liter LS6 V8 produces 535 horsepower and 520 lb-ft of torque. How quickly can the Corvette accelerate? When equipped with the available Z51 Performance Package, the 2027 Stingray can accelerate from 0–60 mph in as little as 2.8 seconds. Is the Corvette practical enough for everyday driving? Yes. Thanks to its comfortable cabin, modern technology, front and rear cargo compartments, and refined ride quality, many owners drive their Corvettes regularly rather than saving them only for weekends. Why has the Corvette remained so popular? The Corvette offers an exceptional combination of performance, technology, design, and value. Few sports cars deliver comparable capability at its price point. The American Legend That Keeps Raising the Bar The 2027 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray proves that innovation and tradition can coexist. By combining a powerful new LS6 V8, cutting-edge engineering, and everyday usability, Chevrolet has created a sports car that continues to redefine what's possible at its price point. Reaching the 200-mph milestone is more than just a number—it's a testament to decades of engineering excellence and Corvette's ongoing evolution. Whether you're a lifelong Corvette fan or simply appreciate world-class performance, the latest Stingray demonstrates why Chevrolet remains one of the most exciting names in American automotive engineering. At Chevrolet of Burien, we're proud to represent a brand that continues to build vehicles that inspire drivers throughout Seattle, Burien, Renton, Kent, Auburn, and the entire Pacific Northwest.

More technology, more capability, and more reasons for Seattle-area drivers to be excited about Chevrolet's most important truck In the Pacific Northwest, a truck often has to do more than just get you from Point A to Point B. One day it might be towing a boat to Puget Sound. The next it could be hauling camping gear to Mount Rainier, pulling a trailer over Snoqualmie Pass, or helping tackle a job site in Seattle, Renton, Kent, or Auburn. And that's exactly what the next-generation 2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 can do. Chevrolet recently unveiled the completely redesigned Silverado, calling it the most powerful and technologically advanced Silverado ever built. Featuring an all-new interior, new V8 engines, expanded technology, improved off-road capability, and a bold new design, the 2027 Silverado was engineered to work harder, tow smarter, and make everyday driving more enjoyable. For truck buyers throughout the Seattle area, this may be the Silverado they've been waiting for. What's New on the 2027 Chevrolet Silverado? This isn't simply a refresh. The 2027 Silverado receives one of the most comprehensive updates in the truck's history, including: Two all-new V8 engines Updated Duramax diesel availability Redesigned exterior styling A completely new interior Larger digital displays Expanded Super Cruise availability Enhanced off-road trims New technology across the lineup Chevrolet's goal was simple: make Silverado better for work, recreation, towing, commuting, and everything in between. A Truck Designed for Seattle-Area Lifestyles The Seattle region is unique because truck owners often use their vehicles for both work and recreation. During the week: Contractors haul equipment Small business owners tow trailers Commuters travel between Seattle, Bellevue, Renton, and Tacoma On weekends: Families head to the Cascades Campers tow travel trailers Boaters launch into Puget Sound Outdoor enthusiasts explore forest roads and mountain trails The 2027 Silverado was designed to support all of those lifestyles. This all-new Chevy truck is "powerful capability with purposeful technology and bold design." New V8 Engines Join the Silverado Lineup One of the biggest headlines is the introduction of two next-generation V8 engines. The 2027 Silverado also includes: Upgraded TurboMax engine Duramax 3.0L Turbo-Diesel New 5.7L V8 New 6.6L V8 According to Chevrolet, the new V8s were developed to provide increased power, torque, refinement, and capability. Detailed specifications will be released closer to launch. For drivers who love the sound, feel, and towing confidence of a V8 truck, Chevrolet is making a clear statement: V8 performance remains an important part of Silverado's future. The Duramax Diesel Returns Seattle-area truck buyers have increasingly embraced the 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel thanks to its combination of towing power, efficiency, and long-distance range. The good news? The Duramax remains available for 2027 and is expanding into additional Silverado configurations. That's especially appealing for Pacific Northwest drivers who regularly: Tow boats Pull campers Travel long distances Drive mountain highways Balance capability with fuel economy For many Silverado owners, the Duramax continues to be one of the most attractive powertrain choices in the lineup. The Interior Gets a Massive Upgrade Perhaps the most noticeable improvement is inside the cabin. Every 2027 Silverado receives: A standard 16.3-inch center touchscreen A 12.2-inch digital driver display Modernized dashboard design Improved materials throughout the lineup Higher trims like High Country and ZR2 can also feature: An available 11.5-inch passenger display Head-Up Display Digital rear camera mirror More than 60 inches of combined screen space Whether you're navigating downtown Seattle traffic or planning a road trip across Washington, the Silverado's technology feels significantly more modern and connected. Super Cruise Continues to Raise the Bar Chevrolet's available Super Cruise remains one of the most advanced hands-free driving technologies available today. For Silverado drivers, that's especially important because Chevrolet continues to offer the industry's only hands-free towing-compatible driver assistance system. Super Cruise can help reduce fatigue during long highway trips while maintaining driver awareness and control. Built for Pacific Northwest Adventure Washington drivers don't just need a truck for work. They need a truck that can handle: Camping trips Mountain roads Snowy passes Boat launches Forest service roads Overlanding adventures That's where the Trail Boss and ZR2 models shine. The next-generation Silverado continues offering serious off-road capability, including: Available factory lift kits 35-inch tires on ZR2 Multimatic DSSV dampers Electronic locking differentials Enhanced off-road technology For drivers exploring places like the Olympic Peninsula, Mount Baker, the Cascades, or Eastern Washington, those upgrades matter. Frequently Asked Questions When will the 2027 Chevrolet Silverado be available? Chevrolet expects the next-generation Silverado to arrive at dealerships later in 2026.

Affordable electric driving, real-world range, and why it makes sense for life in Seattle, Renton, Kent, and Auburn An Affordable Electric Vehicle If you’ve been watching gas prices climb and wondering if now is the time to go electric—you’re not alone. Drivers across the Puget Sound are making the switch, and the return of the Chevrolet Bolt EV couldn’t come at a better time as gas prices soar and oil market volatility hits wallets. Now available again, the Bolt is back better than ever while staying true to what made it one of America’s most popular affordable EVs. Why Is the Chevrolet Bolt Such a Big Deal Right Now?

The Bolt can charge from 10% to 80% in about 25–30 minutes with DC fast charging, making it road-trip capable—not just a city car. A summer road trip without having to pay for gas or wait hours for the vehicle to charge? Yes, please!

The Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X, the most advanced Corvette ever, is the quickest American production car available – and the fastest way to get down a quarter-mile drag strip for under a million dollars. Testing on the ZR1X culminated in October 2025 with validation at US 131 Motorsports Park – reflective of the real-world environments where Corvette customers exercise their vehicles. On a prepped surface, the ZR1X completed the quarter mile in 8.675 seconds at 159 mph 1, on pump gas, using standard-equipment tires and production 50-state street-legal engine calibration, and achieving a 0-60 mph time of 1.68 seconds 1 on the same run. The ZR1X blasted to 60 mph in less than 100 feet, generating a peak of 1.75G of acceleration force.https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/fWj5qKQ8oAk?si=aEWCuwubCjwueNS9 “ When we made the revolutionary shift to a mid-engine platform, this is the type of performance we knew was possible,” said General Motors President Mark Reuss. Corvette ZR1X completes the quarter mile in 8.675s at 159.57 mph. The car was equipped with ZR1X’s standard aero configuration, standard Michelin PS4S tires, and available carbon fiber wheels. This acceleration was not a one-off, either – the vehicle used for testing completed multiple back-to-back quarter-mile runs all under 8.8 seconds. The 2026 Corvette ZR1X uses its twin-turbo LT7 V8 engine and front-axle electric motor to generate a total of 1,250 horsepower, sending it to the ground via electrified all-wheel drive.

Today, Chevrolet gave car enthusiasts and racing fans a glimpse of the high-performance future. Two Corvette concept cars, the Corvette CX and CX.R Vision Gran Turismo, debuted at The Quail, a Motorsports Gathering. While not intended for production, the pair will serve as inspiration to inform Corvette design language for years to come. Drawing on more than 70 years of performance innovation, these Corvette concepts honor the heritage of America’s sports car 1 – and propel it into the future. The CX and CX.R Vision Gran Turismo are the latest and last of several Corvette concepts to be revealed this year, as part of a GM design exercise which involved multiple GM studios globally. The CX concepts were designed and fabricated at the Chevrolet Performance Studio in Warren, MI. “While the shape of a Corvette has always been expressive and forward-looking, each crease and line has its roots in the generations that came before it. It is aspirational, it is cultural, it is the reason people want to come and work at Chevrolet,” said Phil Zak, executive design director for Chevrolet. “The CX and CX.R Vision Gran Turismo demonstrate our design teams stepping away from the constraints of production vehicles and unleashing their creativity. Through this exercise, we’ve added to Corvette and defined the design direction for Corvette moving forward.” Corvette CX Concept: Unmistakably Corvette, made for street and track Front view of Corvette CX. Concept vehicle shown. Not available for sale. Imagine a future Corvette designed from the ground up to provide the ultimate high-performance driving experience on the open road or the racetrack. This was the inspiration behind the Corvette CX concept. The CX concept design starts with quintessential Corvette hallmarks. The forward-lunging nose, the pronounced horizontal “chine” line delineating the upper and lower bodywork, and the dual-element taillights are all signature features of Corvette models past and present. The proportions are long, low, and sleek, with a roofline less than 41 inches high. Aggressively futuristic, yet unquestionably a Corvette, the CX concept shows what an uncompromised future sports car can be. The athletic exterior design, highlighted by the fighter-jet-inspired cockpit canopy, isn’t just about looking powerful – it was shaped in collaboration with the GM Motorsports Aero Group. Every angle was designed with ultimate performance in mind. Side view of Corvette CX with canopy open. Concept vehicle shown. Not available for sale. The innovations continue underneath the skin with the Vacuum Fan System. Built-in fans draw air through the open-channel bodywork, generating massive downforce and adjusting the airflow over the rear diffuser to refine aerodynamic balance in real-time. The front diffuser and rear wing are both active, adjusting automatically in response to the driver’s inputs to generate maximum grip. The integrated understructure of the CX concept is visible through the aero channels in the bodywork, and the suspension A-arms are wing-shaped to enhance airflow and reduce front-end lift. The CX concept’s propulsion system was chosen to provide maximum design freedom, plus ultimate straight-line performance to complement the corner carving enabled by fan-driven downforce and active aero. The CX concept is an all-wheel-drive electric supercar with a propulsion system worthy of the Corvette name. Four motors, one powering each wheel, generate more than 2,000 horsepower, with four-wheel torque vectoring for maximum grip and cornering performance. The 90-kWh lithium-ion battery is mounted in the chassis for a low center of gravity and ideal front-rear weight distribution. Corvette CX interior in Inferno Red. Concept vehicle shown. Not available for sale. On the inside, every aspect of the CX concept was designed to provide an unmatched driving experience. The forward-opening fighter-jet-style canopy automatically raises as you approach. Driver and passenger settle into seating finished in Inferno Red ballistic textile, bolstered to help hold occupants in place during high-g cornering maneuvers. Premium silicone leather, milled aluminum, and low-gloss forged carbon fiber accents give an elevated feel to the driver-focused cabin. The digital windscreen transforms the windshield into an immersive surround display with real-time performance data. Every major control is elegantly integrated into the steering wheel, keeping the driver’s focus on the road ahead. Corvette CX.R Vision Gran Turismo: Future-focused, and inspired by racing pedigree Front 3/4 view of Corvette CX.R Vision Gran Turismo. Concept vehicle shown. Not available for sale. For more than 25 years, the Corvette road car program has been accompanied by a championship-caliber Corvette Racing competition program. This close relationship between road car and racecar isn’t just a source of pride for Corvette fans – it helps further the technical learnings that can be shared across both realms. True to Chevrolet’s performance DNA, the design team created a Corvette CX concept exclusively for track competition. The CX.R Vision Gran Turismo imagines the future of Corvette GT racing – a future gamers will be able to drive in Gran Turismo 7. The CX.R VGT racecar embodies Corvette’s history while looking to the future of automotive performance. The familiar yellow and black color scheme honors the Corvette GT racecars of the past 25 years. Designers took CX’s athletic exterior and ramped up the aggression for CX.R VGT with more prominent active aero features and a lower ride height for racetrack-dominating downforce and grip. Weight has been reduced across the car to further emphasize the all-out focus on performance. Corvette CX.R Vision Gran Turismo interior in yellow and black. Concept vehicle shown. Not available for sale. Inside, the touring-inspired surfaces and materials of CX have been replaced by functional, high-performance appointments. The dashboard consists of lightweight raw carbon fiber weave, and the seating uses suede-wrapped foam inserts for grip and support where the driver needs it. The seats themselves have larger, much more aggressive shoulder and headrest pads to provide the head and neck support necessary with the intense handling capabilities CX.R VGT could deliver. Building off the propulsion template set by the Corvette CX concept, the CX.R VGT combines electrified performance with the thrill of a high-revving V8 engine. The mid-mounted 2.0-liter dual-overhead-cam twin-turbo V8 makes up to 900 horsepower and revs to 15,000 rpm. Powered by renewable e-fuel, this V8 drives the rear wheels through an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission. Three electric motors – one for each front wheel, plus a third incorporated into the 8-speed gearbox – provide instant torque for jaw-dropping acceleration and contribute to a total system output of 2,000 hp.

The Corvette CX and CX.R VGT aren’t just inspirational stage displays. In partnership with Chevrolet performance engineers, the Corvette design team created detailed blueprints for the chassis, drivetrain, and aerodynamic features of both the CX and CX.R VGT concepts. Working with Polyphony Digital Inc., a subsidiary of Sony Interactive Entertainment, Chevrolet will make both the roadgoing CX and the CX.R VGT racecar concepts available for fans to drive virtually in Gran Turismo 7 later this month, giving new and familiar audiences a chance to experience firsthand the future of Corvette design.

GM continues to innovate in order to create the best American-made EV vehicles Ultium Cells LLC, a joint venture between General Motors and LG Energy Solution, will upgrade its Spring Hill, Tennessee battery cell manufacturing facility to scale production of low-cost lithium iron phosphate battery cells, building on a $2.3 billion investment announced in 2021. Conversion of battery cell lines at Spring Hill to produce LFP cells will begin later this year, with commercial production expected by late 2027. “At GM, we’re innovating battery technology to deliver the best mix of range, performance, and affordability to our EV customers,” said Kurt Kelty, VP of batteries, propulsion, and sustainability at GM. “This upgrade at Spring Hill will enable us to scale production of lower-cost LFP cell technologies in the U.S., complementing our high-nickel and future lithium manganese rich solutions and further diversifying our growing EV portfolio." GM’s flexible EV platform has been architected to enable the quick integration of multiple cell chemistries and form factors. The Ultium Cells plant in Warren, Ohio will continue producing cells with nickel cobalt manganese aluminum chemistry, which has been key to GM delivering a range of crossovers with more than 300 miles of range on a charge. With LFP battery technology, GM is targeting significant battery pack cost savings compared to today’s high-nickel battery pack while increasing consumer EV choice. “The upgrade reflects the continued strength of our partnership with General Motors and our shared commitment to advancing EV battery innovation,” said Wonjoon Suh, executive VP and head of the Advanced Automotive Battery division at LG Energy Solution. “We will bring our extensive experience and expertise in U.S. manufacturing to the joint venture facility, further accelerating our efforts to deliver new chemistries and form factors that effectively capture the unmet needs in the EV market.” The Spring Hill facility currently employs about 1,300 people. With the ability to manufacture battery cells in multiple cell chemistries, Spring Hill will help drive U.S. battery innovation, manufacturing, and consumer choice in the EV market. “Ultium Cells’ additional investment and commitment to innovating and enhancing its Spring Hill operations is a testament to the state’s longstanding, cohesive partnerships, which started with General Motors, and grew to include LG Energy Solution in 2021, and we stand ready to continue supporting these companies and their joint venture for years to come,” said Stuart C. McWhorter, commissioner of the Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development. “We are grateful for the continued partnership and support we've received from the State of Tennessee as we continue to advance our lead in EV battery cell manufacturing,” said Kee Eun, President and CEO of Ultium Cells. “This investment expands our capabilities beyond a single battery cell chemistry, allowing us to produce new chemistries alongside our existing cells. Expanding our product portfolio ensures Ultium Cells will remain at the forefront of battery cell innovation and sustain our commitment to be a stable, long-term employer for the communities we serve.”

General Motors and LG Energy Solution will commercialize lithium manganese-rich (LMR) prismatic battery cells for future GM electric trucks and full-size SUVs, in a new battery technology breakthrough. This builds on a partnership between the two companies to develop prismatic battery cell technology and related chemistries, and on GM’s long legacy of American ingenuity that’s produced innovations like the small-block V8 engine, OnStar connected vehicle services and hands-free Super Cruise. GM aims to become the first automaker to deploy LMR batteries in EVs. Ultium Cells, a GM and LG Energy Solution joint venture, plans to start commercial production of LMR prismatic cells in the United States by 2028, with pre-production expected to begin at an LG Energy Solution facility by late 2027. The final production-design of these LMR battery cells will be validated at GM’s Battery Cell Development Center in Warren, MI, which is expected to open earlier that year, as well as LG Energy Solution’s facility. Battery cathodes require materials like cobalt, nickel and manganese, with cobalt being the most expensive. LMR battery cells use a higher proportion of more affordable manganese, while also delivering greater capacity and energy density. Battery engineers at GM and LG Energy Solution have developed a new LMR prismatic battery cell that unlocks 33% higher energy density compared to the best-performing lithium iron phosphate (LFP) based cells – at a comparable cost.

By integrating LMR battery technology and the manufacturing and space efficiency benefits of prismatic cells, GM aims to offer more than 400 miles of range in an electric truck while achieving significant battery pack cost savings compared to today’s high-nickel pack. “We’re pioneering manganese-rich battery technology to unlock premium range and performance at an affordable cost, especially in electric trucks,” said Kurt Kelty, VP of battery, propulsion, and sustainability at GM. “As we look to engineer the ideal battery for each vehicle in our diverse EV portfolio, LMR will complement our high-nickel and iron-phosphate solutions to expand customer choice in the truck and full-size SUV markets, advance American battery innovation, and create jobs well into the future.” “We’re excited to introduce the first-ever LMR prismatic cells for EVs, the culmination of our decades-long research and investment in the technology,” said Wonjoon Suh, executive VP and head of the Advanced Automotive Battery division at LG Energy Solution. “GM’s future trucks powered by this new chemistry are a strong example of our shared commitment to offering diverse EV options to consumers.” GM began researching manganese-rich lithium-ion battery cells in 2015, accelerating this technology development by prototyping LMR cells at its Wallace Battery Cell Innovation Center in Warren. In collaboration with partners, GM engineers advanced cathode materials, electrolytes, additives, form factors, and cell assembly processes to overcome LMR’s legacy challenges in performance and durability. LG Energy Solution holds the largest LMR technology IP portfolio globally, having secured over 200 patents 1 in this technology field. Its expertise reflects extensive research, with its first patent on LMR chemistry dating back to 2010. LMR battery technology integrates into GM’s battery supply chain and cell manufacturing processes, reinforcing strategic investments in domestic battery production and the responsible sourcing of critical materials like lithium, graphite, and manganese from North America.
