Corvette: Hallelujah for the Grand Sport
TRADITION sports cars can be sensible, beautiful and well-balanced. Take the Corvette Grand Sport, for example, with its beefy 466 hp. Anyone who drives this car needs a gun license - or even better, fighter pilot training. The feel, the sound and the driving experience exude a pure racing atmosphere from the very first moment.

Anyone who drives this car needs a gun license - or even better, fighter pilot training. The feel, the sound and the driving experience exude pure racing atmosphere from the very first moment. The image of the mother of all American sports cars has divided the opinions of entire generations since the first edition in 1953: Sunday getaway car for faithfully serving family fathers, pimp status symbol or blonde catcher for bodybuilders are just a few examples.
It also works with 13 liters of consumption on average
Who cares that the Eco program reduces fuel consumption to less than 13 liters? And the Tour mode with its soft chassis, gentle steering, and purring exhaust is enough to placate the neighbors with its whisper? If you turn the switch on the center tunnel to Sport or Track mode, it's over and done with balance. The U.S. lady then bites into every meter of Swiss asphalt and longs for the next pass.
From 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.1 seconds
The Vette impresses with sensational cornering, always following the ideal line and so controllable at high speeds that you permanently have to fear for your driver's license. In Sport mode, the red flask gets a bit shaky, and in Track setting, the brisk dance quickly turns into a hot ride on the volcano. Enough power for a hallelujah.
Start at a base price of 106 950 Swiss francs
The look into the future does not let die the hope that Detroit will never lose the courage to remain authentic. Should an electric heart one day breathe life into the icon, please with a sound generator that will never let the primal thunder fall silent. With a base price starting at 106,950 Swiss francs, the Corvette Grand Sport is comparatively inexpensive.
