Open-air driving has always been a part of the Chevrolet Corvette's heritage. In fact, when the Corvette debuted in 1953, it was available only as a convertible. The 2020 Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray convertible builds off that heritage as the first hardtop and mid-engine convertible in Corvette history.The mid-engine 2020 Corvette C8 Stingray was engineered first and foremost as a convertible. The convertible maintains the tunnel-dominant structure and use of high-integrity die-cast parts found in the Stingray coupe.The team engineered the hardtop to stow seamlessly into the body, maintaining the Stingray's impressive ability to store two sets of golf clubs in the trunk even with the top down. The convertible also keeps the coupe's front storage compartment, which can fit an airline-spec carry-on and a laptop bag.The hardtop provides a quieter cabin, increased security and a cleaner look compared to the previous softtop designs.
