50 Years of the Chevrolet Corvette
1996
The 1996 Corvette was the last of the C4 models Chevrolet released. As a result, the company wanted to give special editions to honor the generation: The Collector Edition and the Grand Sport special edition. These vehicles included a revived LT1 Power plant and the LT4 ( a high-performance variant of the LT1 with 330 hp). The 1996 Corvette was the only C4 to include an OBD II diagnostics and have Real-Time Damping as an option. This year, Chevy saw a slight increase in sales.
