The special edition marks a unique expansion of the Corvette lineup in the Japanese market, where GM is relaunching the model with revised specifications and updated pricing. The America Anniversary Edition was developed specifically for Japanese customers as part of the automaker’s broader marketing strategy surrounding the iconic American performance car.
Based on the 3LT Coupe trim, the limited-run model combines exclusive visual enhancements with the latest interior technology updates recently introduced for the Corvette in North America. The car adopts the new three-screen cabin layout and includes several market-specific details aimed at distinguishing it from other variants.
The exterior is finished in Arctic White, a color intended to represent freedom, while asymmetrical Edge Red and Carbon Flash full-length dual racing stripes add a more aggressive motorsport-inspired appearance. Inside, the cabin features an Adrenaline Red and Black color scheme along with Japan-exclusive accents that further separate the model from the standard Corvette lineup.
Additional identifying features include unique badging and an Edge Red engine cover with lighting surrounding the mid-mounted 6.2-liter LT2 V8 engine. Like other Corvette models sold in Japan, the America Anniversary Edition is offered exclusively in right-hand drive and imported from General Motors’ Bowling Green assembly plant in Kentucky.
Production of the commemorative model will remain highly limited, with only 20 units allocated for the Japanese market. The edition is also separate from Chevrolet’s Stars & Steel Collection available in North America, giving Japanese buyers a distinct anniversary-themed Corvette unavailable elsewhere.
The 2026 Corvette America Anniversary Edition is now on sale through official Chevrolet dealerships across Japan. Pricing starts at 19,850,000 yen, which converts to approximately $124,900 USD based on current exchange rates.
