Chevy also added 24″ high-gloss black wheels, black nameplates, and a new Brembo heavy-duty brake system with red-piston front calipers, and larger 15.7″ brake discs.

For every Stars & Steel vehicle sold, Chevy will donate $250 to nonprofits that support veterans. Be on the lookout as the collection will make its first public appearance this weekend during the Army-Navy game on Saturday, December 13, 2025.
