Chevrolet unveils unique Corvette ZR1X Stars & Steel Limited Edition
Learn about the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X Stars & Steel Limited Edition, a one-of-a-kind supercar with exclusive paint and design, set for auction in 2026 with proceeds to charity.
Chevrolet has unveiled a unique Corvette ZR1X Stars & Steel Limited Edition, a one-of-a-kind vehicle. It features exclusive paint, custom design elements, and will be the main lot at the Barrett-Jackson auction in January 2026. Journalists from the publication 32CARS.RU reported this on January 15.
Exclusive Paint and Design Features
The standout feature is the Dark Satin Steel color, developed specifically for this car and applied by hand at the GM Design Fabrication Shop. The body is adorned with signature Stars & Steel graphics inspired by the American flag. Lines run from the front to the roof, highlighting its special edition status.
Inside, the cabin includes unique trim elements and a plaque confirming it is the only example in existence. This detail matters because it significantly boosts its value, as it is not part of the 250-car Stars & Steel production run.
Performance and Capabilities of the ZR1X
Technically, the model mirrors the production Corvette ZR1X. At its heart is a hybrid setup with a 5.5-liter V8 LT7 twin-turbo engine and a front electric motor. The combined output reaches 1,250 horsepower, making this version one of the most powerful in Corvette history. The layout provides all-wheel drive and performance that matches supercar standards.
Auction and Charitable Goals
The sole Corvette ZR1X Stars & Steel will go up for auction on January 24, 2026, in Scottsdale. It will be offered with no reserve, and all proceeds will go to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, which supports the families of fallen military personnel, wounded veterans, and combats veteran homelessness.
Experts anticipate this unique supercar will be one of the auction's most notable highlights. Considering the base price of the production ZR1X starts at $209,595, the final bid could be substantially higher.
