The C8 Corvette is currently sold in Europe, V8 engine and all.

With varying levels of hardline environmentalist stretching back decades, Switzerland is a country known for its prohibition of motorsports, draconian speeding penalties, the birthplace of Start/Stop, and the most rigid of emissions policies. In short, Switzerland is to car culture what veganism is to barbecue. Yet somehow, the neutralist tax haven is getting its own version of the C8 Corvette Stingray. Chevrolet simply calls it the “Swiss Edition.”

C8 Corvette Swiss Edition: Details

The C8 Corvette Stingray Swiss Edition can be ordered in their choice of six exterior and interior color options.

The Corvette Swiss Edition models feature the 6.2L LT2 V8 engine, which produces 482 horsepower in this guise, sending the driver and the car well beyond the allowed limits. In addition, the Swiss Edition models feature the Z51 Performance package along with a high-performance exhaust, an electronic differential, an air cooling system, and Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires. Additionally, the Swiss Edition C8 Corvette features some free options for customers.

The Swiss Edition of the Corvette Stingray can be reserved directly online at Chevrolet Switzerland for a refundable deposit of CHF 2,000 (USD $2,161). Once the reservation is in place, customers are in close contact with the Chevrolet team. The ordering process will close in the spring, and the first cars will be delivered to their owners shortly after. Customers will also have the option of having their Corvette delivered to their home, workplace, or another address in Switzerland for an additional fee.

Buyers of the Swiss Edition Corvette Stingray will also be able to take delivery of their vehicle at the first mobile Chevrolet and Cadillac showroom in Europe located at the Volkiland shopping center in Volketswil.

Zac's love for cars started at a young age, after seeing the popular Eleanor from Gone In 60 Seconds. From there, fascination and enthusiasm blossomed and to this day the Ford Mustang remains a favorite. His first job started out detailing cars, but also provided the opportunity to work on restoration including an 1968 Ford Mustang, Pontiac Firebird, and a C3 Corvette, though he left that job before further work and experience could be had. From there, he was a detailer at a car dealership before quitting that job to try and finish college.

Much of his free time while studying was spent watching YouTube videos regarding new cars, or off-roading. 4WD247 is a personal favorite channel which rekindled a dying flame in car enthusiasm, now tailored towards trucks and SUVs and the fun that can be had building up an overlanding rig, and going on adventures, though, that chapter remains unwritten for the time being.
