Chevrolet Unveils Anniversary Editions of the Corvette, Colorado, and Silverado

The American brand is marking the nation’s 250th anniversary with special-edition versions of its iconic sports car and pickup trucks.

Chevrolet Unveils Anniversary Editions of the Corvette, Colorado, and Silverado

Chevrolet, a brand under the General Motors umbrella, has pulled the wraps off a limited-run lineup called Stars & Steel. The collection includes special versions of the Corvette sports car as well as several of the company’s pickups: the Colorado, Silverado 1500, Silverado HD, and Silverado EV. The series is timed to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary, which will be officially marked in 2026.

The Chevrolet Corvette Stars & Steel will be offered in either white or black, both finished with full-length stripes and star graphics in silver or black, echoing the look of the American flag. “250” badging appears on the doors and rear wing, while the back of the car features black exhaust tips. Red Edge brake calipers add contrast, and buyers can choose between gloss-black wheels or carbon-fiber rims.

Inside, the anniversary Corvette comes in two interior themes—Santorini Blue or Adrenaline Red. These cars also get unique door-sill plates and a numbered plaque confirming their place in the limited series. Red seat belts and floor mats with contrast stitching are available as well. Production of the Corvette Stars & Steel will be capped at just 250 units.

The Chevrolet Colorado Stars & Steel is based on the Trail Boss Crew Cab and, like the Corvette, comes in black or white. This midsize four-wheel-drive pickup, powered by a 2.7-liter engine, wears the same stars-and-stripes-inspired graphics, along with darkened badges and gloss-black 20-inch wheels. Red tow hooks and a range of additional equipment round out the package.

For full-size truck buyers, Chevrolet is offering the Silverado 1500 Stars & Steel, built on the four-wheel-drive RST Crew Cab Short Box and powered by a 6.2-liter V8. The black or white body carries the patriotic graphic treatment and is paired with a sunroof, 22-inch gloss-black wheels, and a Brembo braking system with red six-piston front calipers visible behind them.

The heavy-duty Silverado HD also gets the Stars & Steel treatment. This version is based on the LTZ Crew Cab Trail Boss 4WD and comes with a 6.6-liter Duramax diesel under the hood. Along with the monochrome paint and signature graphics, the truck rides on 20-inch wheels and can be equipped with a variety of option packages, including Z71 Off-Road, LTZ Convenience II, and Max Trailering.

Chevrolet hasn’t forgotten its electric pickup, either. The Silverado EV Stars & Steel is derived from the RST Crew Cab and features a black or white exterior with the same stripes-and-stars motif. It rolls on massive 24-inch wheels and includes blacked-out badges plus an upgraded Brembo brake system with larger rotors and red six-piston front calipers.

Chevrolet also revealed that a one-of-a-kind Corvette ZR1X will cross the block at a charity auction in January 2026. That unique car is finished in white with a black, flag-inspired graphic, making it a fitting centerpiece for the brand’s anniversary celebration.
