Get excited Tucson because there are two new super corvettes
on the way! We can expect to see an upgraded version of the current C7 (which
will revive the ZR1 name) and the long-rumored mid-engine Corvette.
According to Autoblog.com, we should expect to see the C7
ZR1 in 2018, while the mid-engine C7/8 will arrive in a year or two. So far,
every look we’ve gotten at the vehicles have been camouflaged, so we’ve been
unable to grasp the true silhouette of the next generation ‘Vettes. Still we’re
able to spot some similarities and differences between the vehicles.
The Corvettes look nearly identical in the sense that they
have similar windshield, roof panel, side window, side mirror, and taillight
design. So, what’s the difference that experts were able spot? The mid-engine
car front is much shorter and the rear is much more extended than the ZR1. There
is also a big difference in the vehicles unique cooling needs. The mid-engine
Vette also has been sculpted to route airflow to the intakes. Even with the
slight differences in appearance you know both cars will provide an incredible
driving experience.
A Tucson ‘Vette fanatic or not, you’re going to want to
check these sports cars out. In the meantime, be sure to stop by and see us at O’Reilly
Chevrolet in Tucson, AZ to shop our current lineup of Corvettes
