The 2026 Corvette Stingray features a refreshed interior that's more driver-focused and tech-forward. The center console is streamlined with button rows removed, climate controls relocated below an enlarged 12.7-inch infotainment screen, and a convenient passenger grab handle added. A new 14.0-inch digital gauge cluster and 6.6-inch auxiliary touchscreen on the left enhance connectivity, while a redesigned drive-mode selector frees space for a new wireless smartphone charging pad. USB-C charging now appears on the passenger side, and cupholder ambient lighting adds refinement (real aluminum trim available on 2LT and 3LT trims). The exterior gets two new color options, a removable roof panel, and the Carbon Flash Badge Package. Performance and engine specs remain expertly tuned.
