Driver-Focused Interior Features

Step inside the 2026 Corvette Stingray, and the first thing you’ll notice is the cockpit-inspired layout. Everything inside the cabin is designed around the driver, placing controls, screens, and performance settings within easy reach.

The two-seat interior combines race-inspired ergonomics with premium materials. Leather seating surfaces, aluminum accents, and available carbon-fiber trim give the cabin a high-end feel, while the driver-centric center console separates the cockpit into two functional zones.

Even though the Stingray is built for performance, it still offers practical everyday usability. Cargo storage is surprisingly generous for a sports car, offering 12.6 cubic feet of trunk space, and the cabin provides ample room with 42.8 inches of front legroom and 37.9 inches of headroom.

Custom stitching colors such as Adrenaline Red, Competition Yellow, and Santorini Blue allow drivers to tailor the interior to their style.
