The Corvette Was the Fastest-Selling New Car Last Month

The Chevrolet Corvette isn't just fast on the road; it's also the new model that spends the least amount of time in the dealer's lot before finding a buyer.

At least that's the conclusion reached by iSeeCars, which analyzed sales of 1.2 million new and used vehicles in February 2021. The numbers showed that the Corvette was the fastest-selling new model in the U.S. (the trend is often the same in Canada). It was also the fastest-selling model in January 2021.

Specifically, new Corvettes averaged 13.1 days on dealer lots. For comparison, the average for all new vehicles sold in February 2021 was 48.9 days.

In addition, Corvette buyers are not shy about equipping their models with options. According to iSeeCars data, the average new Corvette sold in February cost $86,581 USD, some $25,000 more than the base configuration.

"The new mid-engine Corvette is the best-selling new car for the second month in a row," said Karl Brauer, iSeeCars analyst. "The C8 was already in short supply due to previous production delays and interruptions, and production was interrupted again for the first two weeks of February due to a parts supply issue. "
