2026 Chevrolet Corvette Gets Major Interior Tech Upgrade and Price Hike of Up to $21,000

Chevrolet’s legendary Corvette is pulling out all the stops for 2026, tossing in a heap of cutting-edge tech—but brace yourself, because that fresh digital dazzle doesn’t come cheap. GMSV just dropped the bombshell: the revamped interior will cost buyers up to a staggering $21,000 more than before.

Forget the old-school cockpit, this thing’s got brains. The dashboard’s been gutted, now sporting a trio of sleek screens: a massive 14-inch driver display, a 12.7-inch infotainment screen angled like it’s whispering secrets to the driver, plus a compact 6.6-inch panel for crucial stats. Feels like strapping into a fighter jet, only with better coffee access.

But wait, there’s more. Chevrolet didn’t just slap in flashy screens. The drive mode selector’s been tweaked, the traction control switch has a new home, and that finicky wireless charger? Finally upgraded. And thank the tech gods—the infotainment now runs on Google’s platform, tossing in free Maps and Assistant for eight years. Performance junkies get a beefed-up data recorder, too, because nothing says fun like analyzing your weekend track day failures frame by frame.

Of course, with progress comes pain—especially for your wallet. Thanks toAustralia’s regulatory hoops, prices have shot up. The base 2LT Coupe now starts at $193,990, while the 3LT Coupe takes a brutal $21,000 leap to $222,990. Want the wind in your hair? The convertible starts at $232,990. Good luck explaining that one to the spouse.

Under the hood? Same beast. The Stingray’s 6.2-liter V8 still cranks out 369kW, and the E-Ray hybrid stays glued to its hybrid madness for 488kW combined. No surprises there—just muscle left untainted.

Chevy’s clearly gunning for Europe’s elite, daring to stand toe-to-toe with Porsche’s 911 Turbo and BMW’s M8. Sure, the price is creeping up, but let’s be real: where else can you get this much horsepower, swagger, and tech in one package? The Corvette’s not just holding its own—it’s stealing the damn show.
