As time flies by, more and more reviews of the new seventh generation Corvette with the Stingray moniker are dropping in, the latest one arriving from Consumer Reports (CR) that posted a video with its initial impressions of the sports car – a comprehensive test is said to be in the making as we speak.

The publication’s auto tester Jake Fisher seems genuinely impressed with the advancements made on the Corvette C7, with his findings more or less, in line with what we’ve heard and read from other reviewers.

Along with the newer and sharper looks on the outside, and the much improved cabin on the inside over the C7’s predecessors, both in terms of styling and in terms of quality of materials, CR’s tester points out the new model’s agility, direct handling and the fiery V8 engine.

Watch CR’s first drive and assessment of the Stingray for yourself in the video after the break.
