Chevrolet released the 5th generation Corvette, also known as the C5, in 1995. The brand claimed they had given a big makeover to the Corvette in order to leave the squared-looking trend behind. The C5 Corvettes were produced until 2004.
topThe Corvette C5 has a 5.7-liter V8 engine at the front and a rear-wheel drive system. Its LS1 engine was launched with 345 hp and was improved to 350 hp in 2001. Power outputs rise up to 405 hp with some C5 versions along the years. 4-speed automatic and 6-speed manual transmissions were available.

Steering Power assisted, speed sensitive rack-and-pinion. Brakes Vented discs with ABS on all wheels.
topThe Corvette C5 was launched as a 2-door hatchback coupe; then a 2-door convertible body style joined the line-up in 1998. In 1999 and 2000, a 2-door hardtop coupe was also produced. The C5 embodied the beginning of a new Corvette styling trend, which was given rounder and more elegant lines, somewhat recalling the C3’s appearance.
