Corvette Turns 70 Today !


Chevrolet Corvette Celebrates 70 Years at The Rink at Rockefeller Center

CHEVROLET CORVETTE CELEBRATES 70 YEARS AT THE RINK AT ROCKEFELLER CENTER

First-ever all-wheel drive and electrified Corvette, the 2024 E-Ray, makes dramatic debut on the ice

 

 

NEW YORK  Today, the first-ever electrified Chevrolet Corvette, the 2024 E-Ray, was revealed in dramatic fashion at The Rink at Rockefeller Center, performing advanced maneuvers on the ice to showcase the vehicles eAWD capabilities, while also marking 70 years of performance and innovation for Corvette.

Exactly 70 years ago, on Jan. 17, 1953, Corvette made its world debut at GM Motorama in New York City.

In honor of Corvettes momentous debut in New York City, we returned exactly 70 years later to expand the idea of what a Corvette can deliver with the electrified all-wheel drive Corvette E-Ray, said Scott Bell, vice president of Global Chevrolet.

The 2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray will be on display at center ice at the Rockefeller Center for the duration of the day on Jan. 17.

I had Vettes for 40 years. I also attended the 50Th anniversary. Pretty good time. The ZZ top concert was a Bust!!! In the first 20 minutes over 1/2 of the attendees left. They didn't play any of their top songs, big crowd left. Bummer...

I'm not sure what the point was of driving the Corvette on a snow covered rink.
