50 Years of the Chevrolet Corvette

1992

For the 1992 Corvette, a traction control system titled Acceleration Slip Regulation (ASR) became standard. The system used ABS sensors to operate the brakes to keep traction when it identified rear-wheel slip. In certain circumstances, the driver would feel the brake pedal push back on their foot to signal that the system was working. The ASR could be switched off on the dashboard. The other big addition for 1992 was the new LT-1 Engine, which replaced the L98. The Engine was 5.7 L 350 cu in and used a reverse-flow cooling system.
