2015 Stingray to offer 8-Speed Automatic!
GM's Press Release today:
2015 Corvette Stingray to Offer Eight-Speed Automatic. |
Very interesting!
|
Thankfully Chevy is going to install the 8 speed auto in the new 2015 Corvette. I am very grateful that they are not going to wait until the 2016 model. If it truly can out perform a PDK transmission, it is going to be a heck of of a transmission.

I would have loved to get an 8-speed auto but I'm glad I didn't wait until the 2015 model to get it. I'm happy with my A6 and look forward to actual reviews of the new 8-speed tranny. Nothing says I can't keep my Stingray a year or two and buy another one! :thumbsup:
|
So is this better than a manual?
What's the % hp drop with going with this tranny vs. manual? |

I have an 8-speed auto in my A5, and absolutely love it. I'm very excited to see this in the Vette!

About the 8 speed
The 8 speed automatic will be in the 2015.But let me get this straight you will still be able to get A 7 speed manual is that correct?
|
Does anyone have any idea what kind mpg bump the new 8 speed will provide? are we just looking at 1 or 2 mpg or something greater?
|
Love it-I would LOVE to see it better the Porsche PDK.
