This exciting technical area demonstrates how Corvettes go from the drawing board to working prototypes to actual production models. With input from the General Motors Technical and Design Center in Michigan , scenes show the lifelike figures of actual designers and engineers surrounded by outrageous sketches, prototypes and clay models. Prototypes and one-of-a-kind display cars that never made it to the showroom are part of the mystique of the design and development area, in addition to new 6 th Generation Corvette technology.

A C6 Corvette Nurburgring Test track exhibit and a cutaway chassis are also part of this area’s unique exhibits, and remember…the Museum is a “living” Museum and displays are ever-changing.

Safety is a major priority for Corvette engineers and designers, and a crash test area complete with a wrecked Corvette and video example of the testing process is a crowd stopper.
