Corvette C7 Final Edition launched in Europe

Chevrolet customers in Europe can now order the Corvette Final Edition. Based on the outgoing C7 coupé, it’s available in either Grand Sport or Z06 guises.

Sebring Orange Tintcoat Metallic or Ceramic Matrix Gray Metallic are the two paintwork choices. They’re both combined with black wheels, some fairly unsubtle body-side graphics and the carbon fibre exterior package (which comprises a front splitter and side skirts). Furthermore, the Grand Sport’s ‘hash marks’ seen above the front wheel arches are carbon fibre too.

In Germany, prices for the Grand Sport Final Edition start at €116,500, while the Z06 Final Edition costs from €139,500. By comparison, the regular models are listed at €101,550 and €129,100 respectively.

Performance might not be scintillating - the 0-62 mph (100 km/h) sprint takes 12.5 seconds and maximum speed is 108 mph (173 km/h) - but the TwinAir’s trump card is efficiency. Carbon dioxide emissions are only 98 g/km, a level that brings numerous benefits for UK drivers including zero road tax, a full discount on the London Congestion Charge and qualification for the lowest company car benefit-in-kind rate. Fuel economy is also decent and, according to the official figures, a TwinAir-powered MiTo will manage 67.3 mpg (4.2 l/100km) on the combined cycle.
