A masterpiece of performance.

Impressive

structural rigidity

The Corvette structure (consisting of a

strong perimeter frame combined with

a center structural tunnel) provides an

impressive level of rigidity. This robust

design allows the independent suspen-

sion to be tuned precisely for impact

harshness and driver control.

Double wishbone

suspension

An SLA (Short/Long Arm) suspension

with aluminum double wishbones

and knuckles is used at each corner.

This suspension design contributes

to a compliant ride, while providing

impressive response, especially during

aggressive cornering.

High-tech wheels

Lightweight aluminum wheels are

engineered to minimize unsprung weight

and add to Corvette’s bold appearance.

Standard Traction Control

A full-function Traction Control system

is standard in every 2002 Corvette.

This advanced system works in con-

junction with the antilock brakes and

electronic throttle control to optimize

traction by reducing tire slip on many

surfaces. An On-Off switch is provided.

Variable-effort steering

Magnasteer is a speed-sensitive,

variable-effort steering system.This

computer-controlled system, combined

with a rack-and-pinion steering gear,

provides maximum steering assist for

parking and precise steering feel at

higher speeds.

Precision alignment

A four-wheel geometric alignment

machine at the end of the assembly

line conﬁrms that each Corvette is set

to its optimal ride height. All caster,

camber and toe alignments are com-

pleted to exact standards.

Four suspension choices

• The FE1 suspension (standard in

coupe and convertible) is designed

to please the majority of Corvette

drivers with its outstanding blend

of ride and response.

• Enthusiasts seeking the ultimate in

Corvette technology will want the

optional F45 with Selective Real Time

Damping (not available in Z06) —

a.k.a., the suspension that “thinks.”

F45 has computer-controlled shocks

that automatically increase damping

rates in “real time” — 10 to 15

milliseconds — as road conditions

dictate.There are three manual

settings: Touring, Sport and Perfor-

mance — each with a distinct range

of ride response.

• Then there’s Z51.This is a suspension

option for die-hard performance fans,

and it’s the racing-inspired package

you’ll want if you intend to participate

in sanctioned competitive events.

• Corvette Z06 has its own FE4

Suspension, details on page 25.

Front engine/

rear transmission

A rear-mounted transmission creates

more interior room for driver and

passenger. Hydraulic engine and

transmission mounts help reduce

vibration to the chassis.

ABS with four-wheel discs

A premium four-wheel disc brake

system with ABS is standard.The

brake rotors are large and vented

for powerful braking performance.

Premium, nonmetallic linings provide

smooth, quiet braking.

Standard Active Handling

Standard in all Corvette models, an

advanced Active Handling System

provides a high level of stability control

technology. Corvette “knows” when to

intervene with Active Handling without

diminishing your fun as a driver.

Extended Mobility Tires

Standard Extended Mobility Tires

eliminate the need for a spare tire.

With EMTs, you can drive up to 200

miles at 55 mph on completely

deﬂated tires. A standard tire pressure

monitoring system signals the driver

if a tire is in a low- or high-pressure

situation. Please see the Corvette

Owner’s Manual for more information.

Extended Mobility Tires and tire moni-

tor system are not offered on the Z06.

Solar-Ray glass

All Corvette windows are tinted, and

the windshield features Solar-Ray

glass, for reduced heat buildup.The

high-strength windshield is made

of lightweight, urethane-bonded

laminated glass.

One of America’s ﬁnest

production V8s

Tec hnical highlights of the 350-

horsepower LS1 V8 (standard in coupe

and convertible) include lightweight

aluminum construction, Sequential Fuel

Injection with a composite intake mani-

fold, and Electronic Throttle Control.
