2024 Corvette Configurator Live

The 2024 Corvette arrives as the eighth-gen C8’s fifth model year, introducing a number of important updates and changes over the previous 2023 model year. Now, Chevy Corvette fans and potential customers can spec the 2024 Corvette using the official configurator tool at Chevrolet’s website. That includes the 2024 Corvette Stingray, the 2024 Corvette Z06, and the 2024 Corvette E-Ray.

The most important change introduced by the 2024 model year is the debut of the 2024 Corvette E-Ray, the first-ever hybrid-powered, all-wheel-drive Corvette model ever offered from the factory. Just behind the cabin, the 2024 Corvette E-Ray cradles the same naturally aspirated 6.2L V8 LT2 gasoline engine equipped by the C8 Corvette Stingray, but in the E-Ray, this powerplant combos with a single front-mounted electric motor and 1.9 kWh battery system, bringing peak output to 655 horsepower.

As before, the 2024 Corvette lineup also includes the highly track-capable C8 Corvette Z06, featuring the high-revving naturally aspirated 5.5L V8 LT6 gasoline engine. Peak output in the C8 Z06 is rated at 670 horsepower and 470 pound-feet, with redline set at 8,600 rpm.

Finally, customers are also offered the C8 Corvette Stingray, once again packing the naturally aspirated 6.2L V8 LT2 gasoline engine good for 490 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque in standard guise.

Per previous GM Authority coverage, the destination freight charge (DFC) for the C8 Corvette has increased with the 2024 model year, now set at $1,595 across the board, a $200-increase compared to a DFC of $1,395 included with the 2023 model year.

All C8 Corvette variants ride on the GM Y2 platform, with Corvette production taking place exclusively at the GM Bowling Green plant in Kentucky. Notably, the R8C Corvette Museum Delivery option is now a bit more expensive than it was with the 2023 model year, as recently covered by GM Authority. Production of the 2024 Corvette begins September 5th, 2023, while production of the 2023 Corvette ends September 1st, 2023.

  1. Just curious to who may have been told they would get a 2023 C8 Corvette but then finds out that your order will have to wait? Yes more money for the 2024, MSRP, destination etc…..

  2. Great that the 2024 Corvette configurator is now live. However, it should be noted that it’s only live for customers in USA in USD. We here in Canada are still waiting for the Canadian version with CAD prices. The beat goes on.

    1. I ordered my 2024 about 3 weeks ago with Canadian prices.

      1. I see the CAD 2024 C8 configurator is now live. I just noticed it today, not sure how long it’s been live? BIG price increases on both the Stingray and the E-RAY.

      2. Dean what was the MSRP base price for your car? Was it a convertible? trying to get a base price before all the price increases that happened in October. I’ve been trying to find the price when they first started the 2024’s in canadian. Thanks

        1. Hi Kevin

          I configured mine in 2023 Canadian dollars and it was 100k. When the order went in September it was clear the car would be a 2024. The price went up to 110k.
          The car is a coupe 2LT Z51.

          1. Dean what was the base price before adding as I’m concerned that I didn’t get a price when I ordered and when the 2024 started I still didn’t get a break down and now I think he’s just throwing numbers at me. So what was the base MRSP before extras. Thanks

            1. Hi Kevin

              The base price was 97,399.00 before any extras. When I ordered mine at the dealer, he gave me the order paper and it had the price of the car right on it. When the car arrived the MRSP was to the penny of the order form.

  3. Yes, the configurator is up and working. There are a few bugs when saving or trying to go back and make changes. You do get a message stating “We’re Sorry – There was an error processing your request. We have tracked the error and we’ll be investigating it”. You would think they would have thoroughly tested the configuration before launching, That all said, I am on the list for the E-Ray Convertible and configured and priced. $152,830. Much higher than I anticipated.

  4. MK, Who is the real idiot.. ‘BECAUSE’ is one word. BTW, My C8 Z06 is absolutely fantastic!!!

  5. It’s a shame that we cannot buy one at the MSRP sticker. The dealers are charging $10,000 above the sticker. This practice should be outlawed.

    Reply
    1. No one is forcing anyone to pay a markup. People just blindly agree to do it. There are dealers out there charging MSRP, you just have to do the work and find them.

      GM doesn’t care that dealers do it, as long as they disclose to customers throughout the entire buying process that it is being done. GM just wants to make sure the dealers are fully disclosing it and not surprising buyers at the very end.

  6. What’s different with the ZO6 2023 and ZO6 2024?

    Reply
    1. price increase

      Reply
    2. Anything else different?

  7. I would never pay a dealer markup no matter had badly I wanted the car. Give it time and you will get the car if you want it, if not there are many other cars available that i am sure are willing to make a deal. Gm thinks they are hot stuff now just remember all the garbage vehicles they put out in previous year , and their quality control was a joke

  8. It has been over a month since the configurator went live and when you save what you just built, it keeps it and you can see it however, if you click on the details button of the saved configuration you get an error. If you send the link to someone or the dealer and they click on the link they get an error. They say they have been working on the fix for over a month, Give me a break, It’s a software error, and the average downtime for an error like this is less than four hours. It must be the same group that’s managing this group as the supply chain.

  9. I agree on not paying above MSRP. I ordered my 2023 Stingray with 70th anniversary package, convertible, and Z51 package and MSRP was $96K. Ordered it in Oct. 2022 and took delivery at my local dealer in Jan. 2023. Very happy with the car having owned a C5, C6 and C7. After driving my C7, I truly thought this is my last Corvette, but then came the C8……..
