QUICK ANSWERThe 2027 Corvette Grand Sport offers three performance packages. Z52 Sport adds performance brakes and high performance tires, Carbon Fiber Aero adds a high wing and dive planes, and Z52 Track adds carbon ceramic brakes with Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires and quad center exhaust.

What does each package include?

Package Contents
Z52 Sport Performance Performance brakes and high performance tires for more stopping power and cornering grip
Carbon Fiber Aero High wing, dive planes, rockers and front splitter for added downforce and balance
Z52 Track Performance Carbon ceramic brakes, Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires, quad center exhaust and the Carbon Fiber Aero package

Which package suits street driving?

Z52 Sport. It improves braking and grip without committing you to track-focused tires that give up wet-weather performance and tread life.

Which package suits track days?

Z52 Track. Carbon ceramic brakes resist fade over repeated hard stops and the Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires deliver the most mechanical grip offered. It also bundles the Carbon Fiber Aero components, so you get downforce and stopping power together.

Cup 2 R tires trade cold and wet capability for dry grip, which is worth thinking about if the car will see IL winters at all.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Z52 package on a Corvette Grand Sport?
Z52 Sport Performance adds performance brakes and high performance tires. Z52 Track Performance goes further with carbon ceramic brakes, Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires, quad center exhaust and the Carbon Fiber Aero package.
Do I need the Carbon Fiber Aero package?
Only if you want the downforce. It adds a high wing, dive planes, rockers and a front splitter, which help on track and change the look considerably.
Are carbon ceramic brakes worth it?
On track, yes, because they resist fade across repeated hard stops. For street-only driving the standard performance brakes are usually sufficient.

An available exhaust configuration with four center outlets that gives the car a distinctly sharper signature under throttle.
