Chevrolet Corvette Gas Mileage (MPG)

Chevrolet Corvette Gas Mileage (MPG):

Unlike other fuel economy surveys, TrueDelta's Real-World Gas Mileage Survey includes questions about how and where a car was driven. So you can get an idea of the Chevrolet Corvette's real-world MPG based on how and where you drive a car.

If you are not a TrueDelta member, you can see only five Chevrolet Corvette MPG gas mileage averages for each powertrain. Log in or join us to see them all.

2008 2dr Hatch 436-horsepower 6.2L V8

I get 30 mph on the road as long as I keep my foot out of the throttle. For a 430+ HP supercar, that is just amazing
2007 2dr Hatch 400-horsepower 6.0L V8
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
28 to 32 on the highway with 400+ horsepower--whats not to like????????????

2003 2dr Coupe 405-horsepower 5.7L V8

Great for the size of the engine, but not good enough for $4.00 plus gas prices. As gas goes up, the car gets driven less and less.
