Chevrolet is revving up the excitement for car enthusiasts with the unveiling of the 2026 Corvette ZR1X — a jaw-dropping, hyper-performance machine that’s not only rewriting the American supercar playbook but also making history with an ultra-exclusive Quail Silver Limited Edition.

Set to debut at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering during Monterey Car Week on August 15 in Carmel, California, this limited-production masterpiece marries next-generation engineering with timeless Corvette heritage. With a blistering 1,250 horsepower generated from its cutting-edge LT7 twin-turbo V8 hybrid powertrain, the ZR1X rockets from 0 to 60 mph in under two seconds — making it the fastest and most powerful Corvette ever built.

A Design Legacy Reimagined

Chevrolet is celebrating more than just speed. The Quail Silver Limited Edition redefines Corvette styling with exquisite craftsmanship and the first factory matte paint finish since the 1960s — the Blade Silver Matte. Inspired by the iconic Inca Silver paint seen on 1957–1959 C1 Corvettes, this finish represents a milestone in design innovation.

“This new finish creates a distinctly high-end feel and offers a rare chance to own a truly unique expression of Corvette,” said Phil Zak, Executive Design Director at Global Chevrolet. “It’s a bold nod to the past and a thrilling look into the future.”

Exclusively available on the ZR1X 3LZ convertible, the Quail Silver Limited Edition includes:

Black exhaust tips

Carbon Flash-painted mirrors

The ZTK Performance Package adds even more punch with enhanced chassis tuning, aggressive suspension upgrades, a Carbon Fiber Aero Package, and Michelin Pilot Cup 2R tires, delivering true track-capable performance.
