Yesterday, General Motors Company announced a number of new products in the pipeline. We heard about two new Cadillac sedans, a new Buick sedan and crossover, the Chevrolet Orlando, Camaro Convertible and the next-generation Malibu.

However, there was one popular GM model left out of the mix – the Chevrolet Corvette. According to the folks over at Automotive News, production of the next-generation Corvette, known as the C7, is expected to start in April 2012 for the 2013 model year.

Sources say that the front-engine layout will be maintained. Anyone looking to see the 2009 Chevrolet Stingray with a 638-hp 6.2L V8 from the ZR-1? Yes, we are already excited.
