"How much is a Corvette?" That probably sounds like a pretty simple question, but with more C8 variants and options than ever, digging into the configurator of the 2025 model can be a pretty daunting task. Chevrolet offers four different versions of the Corvette for 2025: The base Stingray, the hybrid E-Ray, the performance-oriented Z06, and the top-tier ZR1. And each of them is available as a coupe or convertible.
Options range from simple things like paint and wheel caps to carbon fiber roofs, full racing stripes, dozens of different wheel options, and everything in between. So before you head to the configurator to build the C8 of your dreams, take a look at how each of these models shakes out, and how much you might be on the hook for once you tick a few option boxes.

Price: $70,195
Remember when the C8 Corvette cost less than $60,000? Well, that’s long gone, with the 2025 Corvette Stingray Coupe starting at $70,195 with the $1,895 destination fee included. Opt for the Stingray Convertible and it’s an extra $7,00 on top of that—with a starting price of $77,195 for the base 1LT trim.
Options on the Corvette are plentiful, ranging from $500 Rapid Blue paint to a $2,495 carbon fiber roof. The single priciest option of the bunch, though, are staggered 19- and 20-inch, 15-spoke wheels for a cool $3,485 (and they look really good).
Trim Coupe Convertible Corvette Stingray 1LT $70,195 $77,195 Corvette Stingray 2LT $77,295 $84,295 Corvette Stingray 3LT $81,945 $88,945
Move up from the base 1LT to the fancier 2LT model, and that affords you a 14-speaker Bose premium audio system, performance data and video recorders, and a few much-needed safety features. The 2LT Coupe starts at $77,295. The top 3LT trim tacks on GT2 bucket seats and a microfiber-wrapped interior for an $81,945 starting price.
A Z51 Performance package is available across the board for an extra $6,345, and it adds things like a performance suspension, Brembo brakes, an electronic limited-slip differential, and Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires. The Z51 package also tacks on a new performance exhaust an an extra five horsepower.
If you do tick every option on a Corvette Stingray 3LZ convertible, it will set you back $107,680.
Corvette E-Ray

Price: $108,795
The electrified Corvette E-Ray crests $100,000, with a starting price of $108,795 for 2025. For that six-figure asking price, you do get the second-quickest production Corvette ever, with a 6.2-liter V-8 hybrid making 655 horsepower, sending the super sports car to 60 miles per hour in just 2.5 seconds and a top speed of 183 miles per hour.
As with the standard Stingray, the removable roof is an extra $7,000. Many of the same options from the Stingray carry over to the E-Ray, including premium paint—ranging from anywhere between $500 to $995—and upgraded roof options as pricey as $2,495.
Trim Coupe Convertible Corvette E-Ray 1LZ $108,795 $115,795 Corvette E-Ray 2LZ $114,295 $121,295 Corvette E-Ray 3LZ $199,745 $126,745
The E-Ray has a whole swathe of wheel options, though, including polished aluminum shoes for $1,495, painted carbon fiber wheels for $11,995, and fully visible carbon fiber rims with a red outline stripe for a whopping $15,500. Upgrade the wheel caps for $295, change the color of the brakes for $695, and add racing stripes for $1,195.
Similar to the standard Stingray, the E-Ray is available in 1LZ, 2LZ, and 3LZ trims, with the 2LZ and 3LZ models adding premium features like nicer seats, a better Bose audio system, data recorders, and more. A ZER Performance package is available on all trims for an extra $500, and adds Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires.
Assuming you tick every option box, a fully loaded Corvette E-Ray 3LZ convertible will set you back $150,985.
Corvette Z06

Price: $113,995
Spend an extra $5,200 over the E-Ray and you can get into a new Corvette Z06, which starts at $113,995 for the base coupe. With that, you get a 5.5-liter flat-plane-crank V-8 making 670 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, enough to send the Z06 to 60 miles per hour in just 2.6 seconds—nearly as quick as the E-Ray.
The base 1LZ gets you GT1 bucket seats with eight-way power adjustability, an HD rearview camera, and a Bose 10-speaker audio system. The same paint options from the base Stingray and E-Ray carry over, with the priciest hues asking $995. Competition sport bucket seats are an extra $500, a carbon fiber roof option is available for $2,495, and there are a whopping 11 wheel options to choose from; staggered 20- and 21-inch carbon fiber wheels with red accents are the priciest, asking $15,500.
Trim Coupe Convertible Corvette Z06 1LZ $113,995 $120,995 Corvette Z06 2LZ $122,895 $129,895 Corvette Z06 3LZ $127,545 $134,545
The 2LZ trim adds a 14-speaker Bose audio system, performance data recorders, and a digital rearview mirror. All the same paint, wheel, and roof options carry over. The 2LZ starts at $122,895. The 3LZ starts at $127,545 and tacks on sportier GT2 bucket seats, a microfiber wrapper upper interior, and a few additional safety features.
The Z07 Performance package is a must-have for track enthusiasts. It adds magnetic ride control, bigger Brembo brakes, and Michelin Pilot Super Sport Cup 2R tires. It costs an extra $8,995.
Assuming you tick every option on a Z06 3LZ Convertible, it will cost you a whopping $183,950.
Corvette ZR1

Price: $175,195
The top dog, the big kahuna, the king of Corvettes; Chevrolet introduced the new ZR1 last July as the quickest, most-powerful Corvette ever built. The ZR1 packs a twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter flat-plane-crank V-8 with 1,064 horsepower and 828 pound-feet of torque, which sends it to 60 miles per hour in a blistering 2.3 seconds and on to a top speed of 215 miles per hour.
Of course, you will have to pay a pretty significant price for all that power, with the ZR1 starting at $175,195 with destination included. The convertible will cost you an extra $10,000. But Chevy only offers two variants of the ZR1: The base 1LZ and the premium 3LZ.
Trim Coupe Convertible Corvette ZR1 1LZ $175,195 $186,195 Corvette ZR1 3LZ $185,195 $196,195
The base ZR1 1LZ has standard GT1 bucket seats with eight-way power adjustability, a performance data recorder, and carbon fiber ground effects. The same paint options from the rest of the Corvette range carry over, and you can get a transparent dual-roof option for $2,295. There are five wheel options, ranging from $995 to $13,995, and adding racing stripes is $1,195.

If you want the $8,495 Carbon Fiber Aero package, that adds a high-wing rear spoiler and a few other aerodynamic cues. If you want the $1,500 ZTK Track package, which adds magnetic ride control and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2R tires, you have to also select the Carbon Fiber Aero package. So really, you’re staring down the barrel of a $9,995 add-on.
If you do tick every option box on a ZR1 3LZ Convertible, you’re looking at an asking price of $238,385. But really, $240,000 for a world-beating Corvette feels like a relatively small price to pay.
