What Generation of Chevy Corvette Is The Best?

With over 70 years of Corvette creation and eight generations of cars under their belts, the company Chevrolet has produced one of America’s greatest sports cars. Starting in 1953, they’ve been pumping out amazing cars that are beautiful to look at, fun to drive, and are just a classic piece of car history. But of course, the question comes up whenever people are looking for used Corvettes to buy, or seeing what Chevrolet is doing now, which generation is the best?
 
From sports cars to supercars, you might find that this question is a loaded one. You have various defenders of all 8 generations, and you will get a different answer depending on the person you ask. While there might never be a true and definitive answer to which Corvette is the greatest in the world, everyone can give their opinion and this article has one!

The C7 Corvette Has Some Power And Style

While the C8 Corvette that was released in 2020 does fall into the ‘new is always better’ argument, and it is the most advanced Corvette ever made, the C7 just has something that the modern car lacks.
 
That something is the traditional front engine, which is something that just screams ‘this is a Corvette’ and Cherovlet did decide to send it off with a real bang by creating a powerful Corvette that was designed to last. The 2019 C7 ZR1 is considered by many to be a fantastic Corvette that is comfortable, fast, and handles well with an LT5 6.2L V-8 supercharged engine that creates a SAE-certified 755 horsepower and 715 lb-ft of torque.
 
It is also made with several carbon fiber components to reduce the weight of the car and ensure that everything is all about the speed, such as the carbon fiber hood. Plus, it is a fast car that can hit 60 mph in under three seconds and can reach 100 mph in six seconds, and it is designed to focus on endurance as well.
 
For many people, the sheer love and care that went into making a car that is fun to drive and easy to handle is enough to call it the best.

Some People Love The C6

Of course, every single Corvette generation has its defenders, and many like the C6 models for the light and fast model that was a step up from previous generations. It was a car that was fast, performed well, and had a convertible and a coupe option. With the reduced weight and interesting design choices, a lot of people loved the C6.
 
Regardless of what type of Corvette you love and consider the best, you can always make them look good with C7 engine bay accessories like the 2014-2019 Corvette Stingray Flag Emblem Fluid Cap Covers, the 2014-2019 Automatic Corvette Stingray Fluid Cap Cover Set With Corvette Lettering, and the 2014-2019 Corvette Stingray Fluid Cap Cover Set With "Corvette" Lettering
