The Corvette represents the ultimate in Chevrolet design and engineering, but the 2019 Grand Sport fails to impress with its interior. The interior is designed around the driver, which feels like a fighter-jet style cockpit, with the controls and infotainment display all angled towards the left of the car. The driving position is near perfect thanks to a wide range of seat and steering adjustability. The Grand Sport manages to feel spacious yet sporty at the same time. Interior features on the 2019 Grand Sport include dual-zone climate control, a head-up display with readouts for g-force, vehicle speed, and rpm. A leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel ties it all together. Compared to competitors, the 2019 GS feels cheap; the substandard materials and build quality let down what could, otherwise, be considered a well designed and comfortable space.
没有出行的轻型护卫舰te Grand Sport is a low-slung two-seater sports car. That means that getting in and out of the 2019 Corvette Grand Sport will be a challenge for larger drivers. Once inside, there is a surprising abundance of space. Both the driver and passenger will find that the Corvette offers a generous legroom measurement of 43 inches, but with headroom limited to 37.9 inches, it fails to provide enough headroom for taller drivers. The front seat shoulder room is generous at 55.2 inches, as is the 53.7 inches of hip room. The seats in the GS aren't overly sporty, but provide good side bolstering and overall support, and should prove to be comfortable on long road trips. The driving position is near perfect for the average-sized adult driver, but for others, a wide range of adjustability will save the day, thanks to an eight-way power driver's seat and telescopic tilt steering wheel.

Thanks to its status as a special edition Corvette, the Grand Sport gets a selection of exclusive upholstery materials and optional material inserts, which include Gray, Jet Black, and Adrenaline Red Perforated Mulan leather, and a combination of leather and suede inserts. The available aluminum door sill plates with bold 'Grand Sport' branding will let everyone who steps inside this speedster know that there's something special about it. The steering wheel and shift knob are wrapped in leather but can be covered in suede microfiber at extra cost. The 2019 Grand Sport shares most of its interior materials with the rest of the Corvette range, which means you get a few cheap-looking and low-rent plastics that make the interior feel less premium than that of the competition.
It is a universally accepted fact amongst sports car owners that two-seater sports cars have to sacrifice practicality in order to provide maximum thrills. That means that trunk space and overall cargo capacity rank at the bottom of the priority list. Chevrolet, however, has bucked that trend with the C7. Unlike other two-seat sports cars, the 2019 GS offers 15 cubic feet of trunk space, which is considerable for a regular sedan, not to mention a junior supercar. The ample trunk space is easily accessible thanks to a hatchback-style liftgate that offers a large opening. The 2019 Grand Sport will easily carry two camping chairs, a disassembled picnic table and a portable gazebo for a pleasurable Daytona 24 Hour or Pikes Peak spectating session. Personal storage space, on the other hand, is limited. There are two cup holders, a glovebox and a secret storage area behind the infotainment display, just about enough to store the essentials.

Despite the perceived low asking price of the Grand Sport when compared to the competition, Chevrolet has filled up the features list with some decent tech. Notable exterior features include a body-colored carbon-fiber roof panel and a Z06 sourced grille, front splitter, rear fenders and a set of Michelin Pilot Super Sport summer tires. The interior plays host to an eight-way power driver's seat and telescopic steering wheel, two-zone climate control, an eight-inch color driver display, and cruise control. Stepping up to the 2LT and 3LT models, the feature list includes an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a universal home remote, and a color head-up display. The seats also get an upgrade in the form of improved side bolstering with power, heating, and ventilation. A performance data logging system rounds out the tech features. Driver assistance tech is lacking, to say the least, and Chevrolet has only provided the bare minimum in the form of a rearview camera, tire pressure monitoring, and a front-facing camera.
The 2019 Grand Sport hasn't received the latest Infotainment 3 system from Chevrolet; instead, it has to make do with the somewhat dated MyLink system. The eight-inch infotainment screen displays colors crisply but feels delayed, often lagging when tasked with performing any action. Despite the dated feel, contemporary features abound: there's HD radio, Bluetooth streaming, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto connectivity, and voice command technology. Voice command on the GS works well, and the system provides clear prompts. Sound is channeled through a standard Bose sound system that features nine speakers on the 1LT, growing to 10 speakers and a subwoofer enclosure in the cargo area on higher trims. Both these setups offer crystal clear sound quality and is a definite highlight of the Grand Sport's interior.
