C8 Production Tracker Shows Six 2026 Corvette ZR1Xs Have Been Completed

Last Thursday kicked off the start of the December Order Cycle for the Chevrolet Corvette and dealers only received allocations for the four current models being produced: Stingray, E-Ray, Z06, and ZR1. It appeared to us that the start of ordering for the upcoming ZR1X has been pushed back again.
But then we found out through our dealer network that Chevy has directly placed several allocations for the ZR1X in the last 10 days or so to a select few dealers for retail orders. At least one of those cars – VIN 004 – was showing to be completed from an internal screenshot.
Over the weekend, we turned to Roger Kiel’s C8 Production Tracker on Facebook to see if there was any more news about the supercar and sure enough, Roger is now reporting six (6) ZR1Xs have been completed.
In addition to the six completed ZR1Xs, Roger also states GM has built a total of 72 ZR1Xs that are Captured Test Fleet cars. I haven’t seen that number before and we’ll see if we can get confirmation on that as well.
Our current working theory on this is that Chevy wanted to get a few cars ready prior to the Assembly Plant shutting down for an extended holiday break. Officially, the plant is now closed for the holidays and will restart operations on Monday, January 12. By going direct to dealers, they also are able to avoid any disappointing news about options not being available. We have heard that the Alcon Brakes are still very limited.
Chevrolet was supposed to show off examples from the new Stars & Steel Limited Edition Collection on Saturday during the Army-Navy football game, and we are still looking for any pics or video showing the cars and trucks at the game. If you have seen any, let us know!
The next public showing of the 2026 Corvette ZR1X is expected at Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale in mid-January. There, a special “one-of-one” Corvette ZR1X in the Stars & Steel livery will be offered for sale with the proceeds going 100% to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
