2026 Corvette Z06 Interior Overview
For 2026, Chevrolet gave the entire Corvette lineup a thoroughly reimagined cabin, and the Z06 benefits fully from that transformation. Every element of the interior was reconsidered, from the placement of physical controls and the size of the display screens to the stitching patterns and the selection of materials. The result is a cockpit that feels as purposeful and focused as the car itself.
The Z06 interior centers around a new three-screen layout that surrounds the driver with information and control, while a redesigned center console places every critical function within easy reach. Premium materials, available carbon fiber appointments, and five new interior colorways give each Z06 a sense of craftsmanship that matches its track-ready engineering.
Interior Highlights
- New three-screen driver-centric cockpit layout
- Available GT1, GT2, and Competition Sport bucket seats
- Five new premium interior colorways including an asymmetrical Adrenaline Red option
- Available carbon fiber trim, suede, and leather appointments throughout
Seating and Passenger Space
The 2026 Corvette Z06 is a two-passenger sports car, and every aspect of its seating is designed around that singular focus on the driver and co-driver experience. Three seat options are available: GT1 bucket seats, GT2 bucket seats, and Competition Sport bucket seats. The Competition Sport seats increase lateral support for high-performance driving and incorporate performance textiles in high-wear areas, making them the natural choice for drivers who spend time on track.
All seat options are available with heating and ventilation, allowing the cabin to stay comfortable across a wide range of conditions. For buyers who want an open-air experience, the Z06 convertible features a power-retractable hardtop that operates at speeds up to 30 mph and flows seamlessly into the body design. The coupe offers an available electrochromic targa roof panel that adjusts between full, medium, and low tint at the press of a button.

Console and Controls Design
Chevrolet completely reconfigured the Z06 center console for 2026 to place all critical controls at the driver’s fingertips. The drive mode selector has been redesigned and relocated in line with the gear selector, freeing up space for a new wireless phone charging pad integrated below the infotainment system. A cover keeps the phone secured in place during spirited driving.
The volume knob has been enlarged and now features a lit base for improved visibility, and the HVAC controls have been repositioned under the center display. That repositioning creates a more open environment between driver and passenger and provides space for an integrated passenger grab handle. The passenger side also receives a new USB-C port placed below that handle. The redesigned cupholders feature hand-wrapped inserts with ambient lighting and the signature Corvette crossed flags at the base, with real aluminum highlights on 2LZ and 3LZ trims.

- Hand-wrapped cupholders with ambient lighting and Corvette crossed flags detail
