Next year (2023) marks the 70th anniversary of Corvette, the longest-running nameplate on the road today and the brand will celebrate the milestone with a special edition.
For eight generations, Corvette has pushed the boundaries of technology, performance and style while remaining an attainable cultural icon.
The 2023 model year Corvette Stingray and Corvette Z06 will celebrate this milestone with a special 70th Anniversary Edition package.
“Passion for Corvette runs deep at Chevrolet and this anniversary is extra special because of the excitement and sales success we’ve achieved with the eighth generation of America’s iconic sportscar,” said Steve Majoros, Vice President, Chevrolet marketing. “Even after 70 years, Corvette still makes hearts race and kids dream of the open road.”
70th Anniversary Edition Corvettes will stand out in one of two exterior colours unique to this package – an all-new White Pearl Metallic Tri-coat or Carbon Flash Metallic. Optional stripes are available in complementing colors – Satin Gray with the White Pearl Metallic Tri-coat and Satin Black with the Carbon Flash Metallic.
The 70th Anniversary Edition Corvettes feature distinct wheels with commemorative wheel center caps. While Stingray and Z06 each have separate wheel designs, the wheels share a similar dark finish and Edge Red stripe.
Inside the cockpit, drivers will find two-tone Ceramic Leather GT2 or Competition Sport seats, red stitching throughout, red seatbelts, and sueded microfiber seat inserts and steering wheel.
Additional content includes:
• 70th Anniversary Edition exterior badging, including special Corvette crossflags;
• Edge Red brake calipers;
• 70th Anniversary Edition logo on seats, steering wheel and sill plates;
• Rear bumper protector and trunk cover;
• Custom luggage set with red stitching and 70th Anniversary Edition logo
70th Anniversary Edition Stingray coupes will also include an Edge Red engine cover.
The 70th Anniversary Edition package will be available when production starts later this year on 2023 Corvette Stingray 3LT and Z06 3LZ coupe and convertible models. The 2023 Corvette Z06 visualizer, live on Chevrolet.com, now includes the 70th Anniversary Edition package.
All 2023 Corvettes, including those not equipped with the 70th Anniversary Edition package, will feature a commemorative 70th anniversary interior plaque located on the centre speaker grille and a graphic imprinted on the lower rear window, the company said.
Corvette is offering buyers more options in 2023 to make each vehicle bespoke and personalised, raising the number of choices to 14 available exterior colours and eight interior colours that allow for thousands of combinations, it added.
