Chevy Corvette Swiss Edition comes loaded with options in Switzerland
The Chevrolet Corvette Swiss Edition arrives as a well-appointed version of the American sports car exclusively for buyers in Switzerland. The coupe is available in Black, Torch Red and Amplify Orange colors for 119,300 Swiss francs ($128,887 at current exchange rates). Customers can get the convertible in Arctic White, Hypersonic Gray and Rapid Blue colors for 126,700 Swiss francs (136,849 US dollars).
The Corvette Swiss Edition is packed with options. However, Chevy only has a single picture of it. The package includes Magnetic Ride Control suspension and a front lift system. The sports car rolls on five-spoke wheels with a trident design. They have a polished face and Spectra Gray detailing. The cabin includes the GT2 competition seats.
The drivetrain remains stock. In Switzerland, the 6.2-liter V8 produces 482 hp (359 kilowatts) and routes to an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. This accelerates the model to 62 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour) in 3.5 seconds.
All European models are equipped with the Z51 performance package. It includes equipment such as an improved chassis, a sports exhaust, an electronically controlled limited-slip differential, an improved cooling system and Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires.
If you are in Switzerland, you can reserve the Corvette Swiss online by paying a refundable deposit of 2,000 Swiss Francs (US$2,160). Deliveries will start later this year. Customers can choose to take delivery at the first Chevrolet and Cadillac mobile showroom in Europe, located at the Volkiland shopping center in Volketswil, Switzerland.
For the United States, Chevy is currently preparing the Corvette 70th Anniversary Edition for regular Stingray 3LT trim and the upcoming 3LZ class of Z06. Customers can get it on the coupe and convertible bodies later this year.
The exterior of vehicles with this pack is available in either Carbon Flash Metallic or White Pearl Metallic Tri-Coat. Over-the-top stripes are optional and available in black for the carbon-fibre cars or gray for the white models. On coupes, the engine cover is red.
Special equipment includes unique wheels with red rims and anniversary center caps. On coupés, the engine cover is also red.
Inside, there is ceramic two-tone leather on the seats with suede inserts. The steering wheel is also covered with suede. The seat belts and contrast stitching are red.
As a finishing touch, buyers will receive an anniversary luggage set.
