Video: 2014 Chevrolet Corvette’s exterior is all about aerodynamics

GM has dropped a new video showing how much detail went into the aerodynamic sculpture of the 2014 Corvette’s exterior. Every line, every vent, every millimeter performs according to GM.

“The all-new Corvette integrates more high-performance aerodynamic features than ever before, many taken directly from Corvette Racing,” said Tadge Juechter, Corvette chief engineer. “For example, the front grill and radiator flow paths reduce lift, improving vehicle stability at high speeds by keeping the car pressed to the pavement. In addition, functional vents increase track capability by channeling air to the brakes, as well as heat exchangers for the transmission and differential.”

The Corvette Racing program was a crucial starting point for engineers to develop the aerodynamic package.

Chevrolet will unveil the 2014 Corvette on Sunday, January 13, 2013. Stay tuned.
