Production of the 2022 Corvette began at the GM Bowling Green Assembly plant in early September 2021. Recently, the facility was running at a lower capacity than usual during the first week of November due to a parts shortage. That said, availability of 2022 models at the dealer level is scarce, a circumstance that will likely continue until supply catches up with demand. As early as June 2021, demand for the Corvette C8 has outpaced supply by a substantial margin.

GM Authority recently spent some quality time with a 2022 Corvette Stingray Coupe coated in the new Hypersonic Gray Metallic color, and you can see the real-world photos in the gallery below.
