- Chevrolet just released details on the 42,934 Corvettes built for the 2024 model year.
- With these, we now know which are the most popular options and which ones have very low acceptance rates.
- This trim and paint combination is so rare that fewer than 10 people have requested it.
Chevrolet has no qualms about producing a lot of the 2024 Corvette, and it just announced that 42,934 units have been produced. That’s more than the Toyota Supra, Nissan Z and Lexus RC combined. In fact, the most popular trims themselves outsell those competing sports cars. Here are the details on every 2024 Chevrolet Corvette sold, including the rarest models among them.
Let’s start by breaking down the three main trim levels available for the Corvette. They are Stingray, Z06 and E-Ray. Of the three, nearly three-quarters (72%) of those sold in 2024 will be of the stingray variety. That makes sense considering it’s thousands of dollars cheaper than the base Z06.

Next up, the Z06 is in second place, accounting for a quarter of 2024 Corvette sales. In the end, E-Ray only accounted for 3% of Corvette sales, with a total of 1,417 cars built for that particular model. Notably, all three trims are available as coupe or convertible. The most popular was the Stingray coupe, accounting for 42.2% of builds. In fact, among all three trim levels, the coupe is the more popular choice, as 56% of all 2024 Corvettes have a hardtop.
Next, let’s talk about paint color, since this is a huge defining feature. Of the 42,934 Corvettes produced in 2024, the most popular color is also one of the most boring: Arctic White. 6,493 Corvettes were built in this colour. Torch Red ranks second across all three trim levels with 6,013 vehicles sold.
As expected, E-Ray buyers ended up with the rarest car of the year. Sales in all but two paint colors were in the low triple digits for both coupe and convertible. The two outliers above double digits were convertibles – Red Mist at 106 units and Arctic White at 128 units. The rarest Vette for the 2024 model year is the E-Ray coupe in Accelerate Yellow. Chevrolet only built six of them.
