It s about time.
We ve known for a while now that GM will offer a factory-built right-hand-drive version of the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and Stingray Convertible for buyers in countries like Australia, the UK, Japan, and India. In Japan, the first batch of RWD C8s almost entirely sold out when it was first shown at the Tokyo Auto Show in January 2020. In the past, local companies were charged with the left to-right-hand drive conversions, an often expensive process whose costs were passed down to customers.
This time around, the most significant additional costs are related to import taxes and other related fees. Japanese buyers, for example, will be paying at least $113,668 USD for the coupe with the 2LT trim package.
