With all the talk about the new 2025 Corvette ZR1 ordering opening up and production starting in 2nd Quarter, we wanted to take a look to see a breakdown of how the current 2025 Corvette models are being produced. We are about six months into the production of the 2025 models and if recent reports hold up, the model year will run through the end of May.
Currently, Chevrolet is producing three models at the Corvette Assembly Plant in Bowling Green, KY. Those models are the base Stingray, as well as two widebody models called the Z06 and E-Ray.
Utilizing Roger Kiel’s daily production spreadsheet, we see that Chevrolet has produced 14,740 Corvettes for the 2025 model year as of February 9th. The current breakdown in production for the Corvettes is: 63.3% Stingray (9,329), 27.2% Z06 (4,008), and 9.5% E-Ray (1,403).
And for a comparison, here is the 2024 Corvette Production by Model. Chevrolet produced 42,934 Corvettes for the 2024 model year, which is broken down as 72.1% Stingray (30,942), 24.6% Z06 (10,575) and 3.3% E-Ray (1,417).
Comparing the two model years, the Z06 and E-Ray models have both increased their share of production year-over-year. The new E-Ray has nearly reached the Corvette Team’s goal of being 10% of C8 orders while the Z06 is now up to just over 27% in its third year of production.
From 2024 to 2025, the Stingray saw its share of production drop by nearly 9%. That’s a good thing as the Stingray market has become oversaturated with dealer stock orders, which is leading to dealerships heavily discounting the C8’s entry model.
When the 2025 Corvette ZR1s do start up, we aren’t expecting too many in terms of quantities during this initial ramp up phase. Our guess is that somewhere between 300-500 ZR1s will be completed in its inaugural year, and the impact on current production of the other three models will most likely be negligible during the ramp up phase.

Gonna be hard to argue with the E-Ray being a collector car, if GM can’t build more than 3,000 total…
I know part of life is getting old but should G.M. in the ordering process allow senior citizens to move up the line because of their age.
@James
No, not really. Being old is practically a prerequisite for the bulk of traditional Corvette owners. The oldest of them have probably had the opportunity to buy multiple Corvettes (and have) over the years. No special consideration should be paid. If time is of the essence, buy something used.
Isn’t the Eray a Grandsport in disguise?
There will be high demand for the ZR1. Lets hope chevy decides to produce as many as possible so that every person that wants one can buy it.
