Ares Design takes C8 Corvette to hypercar levels of performance

The Italian tuner took an eighth-gen Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and turned it into Ares S, a radical track day tool with a brand-new body and a performance upgrade.

The 6.2-liter V8 received a boost to a whopping 715 hp (533 kW) and 968 Nm (714 lb-ft) of torque. To put things into perspective, the stock ratings are 495 hp (369 kW) and 637 Nm (470 lb-ft).

Ares will be putting out 24 such Stingrays priced at €500,000 each, which is about ten times the original price.
