Revealed at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, the seventh generation Corvette created a big stir with its somewhat controversial exterior design. On the other hand, the way Chevy approached the heavily criticized interior attracted some well deserved praise.
GM finally gave its most venerated sports car an adequate interior in an attempt to compete with the more luxurious European counterparts. The cheap and plasticky dashboards that followed the C5 and C6 generations are not to be forgotten, but Chevy made a huge step towards becoming attractive for a broader crowd.
Because the new interior is such a long way from what the Corvette has offered until the C7 Stingray, Chevy took its time to explain the updated design in their new "2014 Stingray Revealed" video series.
This short film, which is based on the pre-Detroit Auto Show "Craft" teaser (you must remember what Chevy did to us before finally unveiling the car), explains the most important upgrade to the new Corvette model, one that undoubtedly silenced many of the blazing critics.
