An interior deserving of praise
“The first-rate interior will drive as much demand for the car as its powertrain, handling, and curb appeal,” shared Wards Automotive’s Tom Murphy. The publications jurors had nothing but good things to say about the C8 Corvette’s cabin. They praised the cockpit for its tasteful blend of leather, metal, and carbon-fiber materials. As Juror James Amend wrote on his scoresheet, “There are lots of different materials employed here, which can easily turn into a mish-mash. But GM achieved great harmony [with them…].”
The interior’s ‘handsomely configured” push-button transmission, generous application of microsuede, and leather-wrapped instrument panel also drew their attention. The ergonomic dash and controls pair with a small partition that separates the driver and front-passenger areas. Judges expressed how this divide translates into a cozy, cocoon-like feel when you’re behind the wheel.

Chevy’s masterful use of color in the C8 also helped the model achieve its “10 Best Interiors” list ranking. The jurors praised the spectrum of interior upholstery colors and combinations, which range from Twilight/Tension Blue to Morello Red and Adrenaline Red. And one of the judges, Dave Zoia, commended Chevy for the C8’s well-matched monochromatic color schemes such as Natural Dipped.
