C1 Corvette Production Figures
The Corvette that started it all was a huge production success. Over its 10 year production life 69,015 C1 Corvettes were produced (that is about 6,901 per year which is solid in those days). As expected with the Corvette being a totally new model, it took a few years for the production to ramp up and for consumer demand to really drive success. You will notice that from 1957 onward that growth of C1 Corvette production really picked up with sales growing to 14,531 units in its final year in production before the launch of the C2 Corvette.
