2024 Corvette Gets New Sea Wolf Gray Tricoat Color: First Look

The 2024 Chevy Corvette adds three new exterior colors to its palette: Riptide Blue Metallic, Cacti Green, and Sea Wolf Gray Tricoat. Here’s our first look at the new Gray hue.

Assigned RPO code GXA and touch-up paint code WA-129H, Sea Wolf Gray Tricoat is one of 14 exterior colors offered on the high performance sports coupe/convertible, which include:

  • Accelerate Yellow Metallic
  • Amplify Orange Tintcoat
  • Arctic White
  • Black
  • Ceramic Matrix Gray Metallic
  • Hypersonic Gray Metallic
  • Rapid Blue

  • Torch Red
  • Carbon Flash Metallic
  • Cacti Green (new for 2024)

  • Sea Wolf Gray Tricoat (new for 2024)

The Sea Wolf Gray Tricoat color is an extra-cost option priced at $995. It is available on all trim levels and can be combined with all available interior colorways.

While Carbon Flash Metallic isn’t a new-for-2024 color, it was originally offered only on the 70th Anniversary Special Edition package for the 2023 model year. It’s now available across all Corvette variants and trim levels.

For reference, here are the eight available interior colorways offered on the 2024 Corvette:

  • Jet Black (all trim levels)

About Chevrolet Corvette

The 2024 Chevy Corvette adds new active safety tech to its features list to bring it more in line with other Bow Tie brand models, including Automatic Emergency Braking and standard IntelliBeam automatic high-beam headlamps as well as Lane Keep Assist and Lane Departure Warning. The 2024 Corvette also gets new driver mode selection animations.

Additionally, the 2024 Corvette Stingray drops two alloy wheel choices, replacing them with new designs. Check out all the 2024 Corvette wheel options. Furthermore, the 2024 Corvette gets a new Edge Red painted rear fascia script LPO-level option.

At the beginning of the year, GM debuted the first-ever 2024 Chevy Corvette E-Ray, featuring the naturally aspirated 6.2L V8 LT2 gasoline engine from the Stingray mated to an electric motor mounted up front. The E-Ray is also the first-ever production Corvette equipped with front-wheel drive, along with all-wheel-drive traction.

That combination also makes the E-Ray the fastest Corvette ever, with a 0-to-60 mph time of just 2.5 seconds, a tenth of a second quicker than the Z06.

The Corvette Z06 features the 5.5L V8 LT6 gasoline engine, a race-bred, naturally aspirated, dual-overhead cam, flat-plane-crank powerplant.

Production takes place exclusively at the GM Bowling Green plant in Kentucky. The start of regular production (SORP) for the 2024 Corvette Stingray and 2024 Corvette Z06 began on September 11th. Meanwhile, production of the 2024 Corvette E-Ray has been pushed back to December 11th.

    Sea Wolf Gray Tricoat.
    Red Mist Metallic Tintcoat.
    Ceramic Matrix Gray Metallic.

    Note to GM:
    The first question asked by most people who see my C8 is: “What is that color called?”. My response is: “Ceramic Matrix Gray Metallic, which is waaay too many words for a simple paint color”.

    The naval reference may be homage to the British warship the car was named after….

    Is Mary trying for 50 of Gray? Maybe drop one of the grays and try the C8 in a British Racing Green with a Saddle interior;
    Both my 2022 and 64 Stingray are White with Red Interior. I know Boring;

      As were my former ’61 and ’79. My current ’14 is Cyber Gray, which has gotten several positive comments.

      OMG yes. Seriously, they nailed silver on the first try and then ruined it after 1 year. They did the same thing with Zeus Bronze.
