With the new 2026 Corvettes now shipping to dealers, we’ve been on the hunt to share some of the new color combinations now available. Chevy introduced two exciting new exteriors and five very different colorways for the interior, so there are quite a few color combos we haven’t seen yet.
Last week, we got our first look at Riptide Blue with Santorini Blue thanks to my friend Mike Furman, and then we also saw the new Asymmetrical Red on a Black Stingray and Santorini Blue in an Arctic White Stingray thanks to Brandon at Ciocca Corvette.
Today, we bounce back to Mike Furman’s Facebook Page to do another raid of content ahead of tomorrow’s weekly delivery post. Mike is now sharing these photos of a 2026 Corvette E-Ray in Blade Silver with the Sky Cool Gray/Medium Ash with Habanero Accents.

This interior is also very well done in our opinion and the different colors really lighten up the cabin. The Sky Cool Gray serves as the base color with seat bolsters and headrests in the lighter color with the Medium Ash in the center. The Medium Ash carpeting is nice change from the ubiquitous Black that we are accustomed to seeing.
The interior is then topped off with the Orange Seatbelts and Habanero stitching which offers a great contrast against the Sky Cool Gray/Medium Ash leather. We also like the new “hood” design hat covers the primary gauge screen. Mike got a great photo of it from the windshield.

We are also glad to see the return of the Blade Silver exterior for Corvettes. We found Silver Flare to have a bit too much travel in the color whereas the Blade has a more consistent look across the panels. This is also the first 2026 E-Ray we’ve seen which are now coming standard with the body-color side rockers as opposed to the Carbon Flash versions. We do think the owner should have spec’d the brake calipers in Orange as well to carry the color to the exterior of the car, but other than that, well done!

I’m also happy to see ‘Blade Silver return to the lineup..It was my choice back in 2020 when I ordered my car. I’m so glad I changed my order in time from Black…I would have gone crazy trying to keep it clean!…But lately, I’ve taken a shine to that Hysteria Purple!…Maybe Z-06!…..
Would be nice of we could change out the orange accents in this interior to blue or red.
Plastic still on the seats doesn’t really show well.
The silver is very welcome. I would not want that very light “hood covering” in front of my face on the dash reflecting on the windshield – bet that reflects even on an overcast day – unsafe, IMHO.🙂↔️
The only thing keeping this from being the perfect interior is the Habanero. Needs to at least have a black option, if not SCG, yellow, red, blue and potentially even green/brown.
And yes, it really does lighten up the interior a lot. That’s what I’ve been saying about the 3LT interior all along. C8 has too much black on the inside for such a small space.
