The 2026 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X, the most advanced Corvette ever and a true American hypercar, will be available with an exclusive, limited production Quail Silver Limited Edition package.

The Quail Silver Limited Edition showcases unique finishes and craftsmanship, and Corvette’s first matte production paint, Blade Silver Matte, since the 1960s. The package will be exclusively available on the Corvette ZR1X 3LZ convertible.

It will be introduced at this year’s “The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering,” in Carmel, California, on August 15.

“Corvettes are the pride and joy of their owners – this has been true since we first began selling the nameplate more than 70 years ago. They honor its craftsmanship and design as much as its engineering excellence,” said Scott Bell, VP of Global Chevrolet. “The ZR1X Quail Silver Limited Edition presents a highly exclusive option for Corvette customers looking for a collectible item.”

The 2026 Corvette ZR1X, with 1,250 horsepowerbetween the combined LT7 twin-turbo V8 engine and front axle electric motor, goes from 0-60 mph in under 2 seconds2.

Highly exclusive package

Each vehicle will display a “Limited Edition” plaque along the interior waterfall speaker and each build will be identified with a limited-edition number.

The Blade Silver Matte exterior color was inspired by the Inca Silver exterior color offered on the C1 Corvette from 1957-1959.

“The Design team is always looking to innovate, and the Blade Silver Matte paint color marks a significant moment for Corvette as the first factory matte paint in 60 years,” said Phil Zak, executive design director of Global Chevrolet. “This new finish creates a distinctly high-end feel and offers a rare chance to own a truly unique expression of Corvette.”

The ZR1X Quail Silver Limited Edition will include a Sky Cool and Medium Ash Gray with Habanero accents interior, a new color scheme available on all 2026 Corvette models.
