2025, 2026 Corvette Z06 and E-Ray Get Private $7,000 Rebate

By Brett Foote - June 9, 2026

Current Stingray owners are being offered up to $11,000 in combined incentives to step up to a 2025-2026 Corvette Z06 or E-Ray.

As we’ve watched the C8 Corvette family grow over its years of production thus far, sales of specific models have also varied quite a bit. While the base Stingray remains a popular option, GM opted to discontinue the slow-selling E-Ray and replace it with the new Grand Sport/Grand Sport X, most notably. Additionally, Corvette Z06 sales started off red hot, only to taper off a bit as the more potent ZR1 and ZR1X debuted. As such, GM is now offering select customers a solid chunk of cash off the sticker price of each.

As first discovered by Corvette Blogger, leftover 2025 and 2026 Corvette Z06 and E-Ray models are now eligible for a $7,000 private offer, one that’s intended to shed dealers of excess leftover inventory as we move into the 2027 model year. What’s even more enticing about this is the fact that those same customers can stack this discount with $4,000 in Loyalty Cash, meaning that they can get up to $11,000 off the sticker price of a new Corvette Z06 or E-Ray.

At the moment, there are nearly 2,000 total 2025-2026 Corvette Z06 and E-Ray models sitting on dealer lots, so it shouldn’t be too hard to find one – though less than 200 of that total are from the 2025 model year. However, as one might assume, there is some fine print that accompanies this offer – and it only applies to specific customers who want to purchase or lease one of those models.

The offer is indeed “private,” which means that not just anyone can walk into their local Chevy dealer and take advantage – it was emailed to eligible customers last week, in fact. Those customers are current Corvette Stingray owners, and it contains a certificate code that must be presented to dealers. Those same dealers are also able to search for eligible customers via zip code and last name, so no worries if you lost the email – or perhaps didn’t get it and still qualify.

Regardless, for the select few that do qualify, this is certainly an enticing offer, and one that may be enough to convince a Stingray owner to step up to a more potent model. The incentive is good for a short period of time – customers must take retail delivery by July 7, 2026 – so they might not want to waste time taking advantage of it, however.
