Chevrolet has opened order books for the 2027 Corvette Grand Sport X. Dealers had been receiving allocations for the new version for several weeks, and now those cars can be placed as retail orders. The Grand Sport X starts at $112,195, while the non-hybrid Grand Sport costs $88,495.

The Grand Sport X is one of six versions of the 2027 Corvette. The lineup includes the Stingray, Grand Sport, Grand Sport X, Z06, ZR1 and ZR1X. The new hybrid effectively takes the place of the C8 E-Ray: it combines a gasoline V8 with an electric motor and gains all-wheel drive.

Production of the 2027 model year Corvette began on June 8, 2026, at the GM Bowling Green Assembly plant in Kentucky, where the Corvette has been built since 1981. The Stingray, Grand Sport, Z06, ZR1 and ZR1X are already rolling off the line, while the Grand Sport X will enter production later. Chevrolet had previously confirmed that the electrified version would arrive before the end of the 2026 calendar year.

The headline technical change for the 2027 Corvette is a new naturally aspirated 6.7-liter V8 LS6 Small Block. It replaces the previous 6.2-liter LT2 in the base Stingray and also powers the Grand Sport and Grand Sport X. In the hybrid, this engine works alongside a single electric motor that delivers the all-wheel drive. The regular Grand Sport produces 535 hp, while the hybrid Grand Sport X makes a combined 721 hp.
