2025 Corvette Stingray arrives in SA

The Corvette Stingray has arrived in South Africa – fully homologated for our market; factory-built, right-hand-drive format; and available in both coupé and convertible body styles.

Mounted midships, the LT2 engine channels power to the rear axle via an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. According to the company, the Stingray completes the 0-100km/h sprint in just 3.5 seconds. 2025 Corvette Stingray price in SA Available through CVH Auto Group, which is headquartered in Bryanston, Gauteng, the Corvette Stingray is priced from R3.7m in South Africa.

Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray goes on sale in South Africa
Right-hand drive American muscle car includes warranty, service plan and finance options. CVH Auto Group, operating out of Bryanston, is now offering the factory-built right-hand drive 2025 Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray to local buyers. This comes fresh off the back of Durban-based Rospa International's partnership agreement with Australian Autogroup International (AGI) to bring in converted right-hand drive American muscle cars and trucks. Fully-backed Chevrolet Corvette Priced from R3 700 000, and available in Coupe and Convertible body styles, CVH's Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingrays are not grey imports or aftermarket conversions. They are fully homologated for South Africa and come with warranties and a service plan. This also means that trade-ins, local financing, and insurance are available to new buyers. ALSO READ: General Motors unleashes 900kW Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X The Corvette Stingray is the entry-level point into the brand. Offering a sporty balance between road and track, this model runs a 6.2-litre, mid-mount, V8 producing 365kW of power and 637Nm of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels courtesy of an eight-speed dual clutch transmission. What is worth noting is that the South African Corvette Stingray come equipped with Chevrolet's Z51 Performance Package as standard fitment. This means you get the likes of a sports exhaust, upgraded cooling system and specially track orientated suspension. Which in turn translates into a claimed 0 to 100km/h time of 2.9 seconds. And a top speed that is said to be 312km/h.

Chevrolet Corvette Stingray now available in SA - here's how much it'll cost to put one in your driveway
This is the first time ever that a Corvette has been available in right-hand-drive form from the factory. Ever dreamed of owning a Corvette? For the first time ever, the Chevrolet sports car is available in South Africa as a factory-built right-hand drive vehicle. However this doesn't mark the official return of the Chevrolet brand, which exited our market when General Motors pulled the plug in 2017. Rather, it is an exclusive and low-volume import via the CVH Auto Group, based in Bryanston, Johannesburg. What's the price? Getting the new Corvette Stingray into your driveway will set you back from R3.7 million, with both the coupe, convertible and Z06 models being available to South Africans. That makes it a shade more expensive than the Porsche 911 GTS (R3.25m) and cheaper than the 911 GT3 (R4.62m) and Mercedes-AMG's GT63 S (R4.38m). The Corvette Stingray, introduced in 2020, is the first-ever series-produced mid-engined Corvette, with previous iterations having been front-engined.
