2026 Corvette Gets New Interior and Tech Upgrade Across Full Lineup

Abu Dhabi : The 2026 Corvette lineup gets a total interior makeover, packed with advanced screens, refined craftsmanship, and tech upgrades to elevate the driver-focused experience.

• The entire Corvette range now features three high-tech driver displays.
• New materials, color schemes, and console layout highlight luxury feel

The Chevrolet Corvette has long been America’s symbol of power and prestige, and the 2026 lineup brings the biggest interior overhaul in years. Stingray, E-Ray, Z06, and ZR1 now share a redefined cabin that blends driver-centric tech with luxury design and new customization choices. With these upgrades, Chevrolet sets a new benchmark in the premium sports car segment.

A Modern Cockpit with Bigger, Smarter Displays

All 2026 Corvettes feature a new triple-display setup designed with the driver in mind. There’s a 12.7-inch infotainment screen at the center, a larger 14-inch driver display, and a new 6.6-inch touchscreen to the left of the steering wheel. “The design team considered every element — from materials, to stitching, to layout of the interior — for the 2026 Corvette,” said Phil Zak, executive design director, Global Chevrolet.

The center console has been redesigned for better access. The drive mode selector is now next to the gear shifter. A wireless phone charger with a lid sits beneath the screen, while a larger lit volume knob adds ease of use. HVAC controls now sit under the screen, opening space for a passenger grab handle and USB-C port.

Highlight Features of the Interior Update

• Redesigned cup holders with ambient lighting and Corvette branding.
• Real aluminum cup holder trim in 2LT/2LZ and 3LT/3LZ.
• Carbon fiber display hood standard on ZR1, optional on others.
• First-ever asymmetrical colorway: Jet Black and Adrenaline Red.
• New interiors: Santorini Blue, Very Dark Atmosphere, and Ultimate Suede.
• Mixed seat colors: Adrenaline Red driver's seat and Jet Black passenger seat.

Performance App and Infotainment Go Next-Level

Corvette’s Performance App, first seen in the 2024 E-Ray, now spans the full range. Drivers can view torque flow, set custom acceleration ranges, and monitor tire temps and G-forces. “The technology in the new Corvette is as strong and capable as the engine behind you,” said Dusty Smith, performance driving product manager.

Tour, Sport, and Track displays have also been refreshed with better animations and graphics. Plus, the Performance Data Recorder now includes a full redesign with easier access to HD video playback and real-time driving analytics.

The infotainment system, built on Google, supports voice commands for everything from maps to climate control. New in-car apps like Chrome, GameSnacks, and streaming services offer extra convenience when parked. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto continue to be supported.

Added Features and Exclusive Touches

New tech also includes PTM Pro — a track mode that disables traction and stability control while keeping ABS active. The E-Ray’s Charge+ button moves to the steering wheel for better access during track sessions. A new electrochromic roof lets you adjust tint levels at the push of a button.

ZR1’s ZTK package now comes with new 10-piston front and 6-piston rear calipers and larger carbon ceramic brakes — the biggest ever for a Corvette. Other touches include blue brake calipers on more models and two new exterior paints: Roswell Green Metallic and Blade Silver Metallic.
