Specifications
The GM LT2 engine V8 is a naturally aspirated 6.2-liter pushrod V8 introduced in the Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray, producing up to 495 horsepower and 470 lb-ft. of torque with the performance exhaust. While it retains a traditional overhead valve design with two valves per cylinder, it integrates modern technologies such as direct injection, variable valve timing, and Active Fuel Management to balance performance with efficiency.
Compared to earlier Corvette engines, the LT2 was specifically re-engineered for the C8’s mid-engine layout, featuring a revised intake and exhaust system to optimize airflow and packaging. It also includes a high-mounted camshaft to improve valvetrain stiffness and a standard dry-sump lubrication system, ensuring consistent oil flow during high-speed cornering. Altogether, the LT2 demonstrates how a compact pushrod engine can still deliver strong performance, efficiency, and reliability in a modern sports car.
Engine Variants
6.2L LT2 (Base Stingray)
The base version of the GM LT2 V8 produces 490 horsepower in the standard Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray. It delivers strong, linear power through its naturally aspirated design while maintaining efficiency with features like direct injection and cylinder deactivation. This variant represents the core balance of everyday usability and high-performance capability in the C8 line-up.
6.2L LT2 (Performance Exhaust)
Equipped with the optional performance exhaust system, this version of the GM LT2 V8 boosts output to 495 horsepower and 470 lb-ft. of torque. Commonly included with the Z51 performance package, it enhances both power and sound, giving the Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray a more aggressive driving character while maintaining the engine’s naturally aspirated responsiveness.
6.2L LT2 (E-Ray)
In the Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray, the LT2 retains its 495 horsepower output but is paired with an electric motor to create a hybrid all-wheel-drive system. This setup improves acceleration and traction, especially in low-grip conditions, while introducing electrification to the Corvette line-up without sacrificing the traditional V8 driving experience.
