When it s time to go topless, both brands go to the same place.
The year 2020 has been unlike any other, but when it comes to cars, two have stolen the limelight. The 2021 Ford Bronco pretty much took over the internet ahead of its reveal and has just about every week since. Meanwhile, the C8 Corvette has managed to become the poster car of the year, despite numerous issues like frunk lids opening while driving and, of course, a number of production delays due to the global pandemic. But what do these two machines have in common, aside from both being produced by Detroit-based American automakers? As it turns out, both the Corvette Convertible and the Bronco make use of the same manufacturer for their convertible roofs.
Let s hope the owner actually drives it.
When the first 2020 Corvette Stingray rolled off the production line, Chevrolet could never have anticipated a global pandemic would turn it into a future collector s car. With General Motors forced to close down the Bowling Green plant, production of the 2020 Corvette Stingray was severely cutback.
In an unusual move, Chevrolet extended 2020 model-year production of the Corvette until the end of the year, enabling the automaker to meet its original production target of over 20,000 units. But now the order books are closed ready for the 2021 model to start production. Traditionally, first and last Corvettes from a model year are highly sought after by collectors, and the 2020 Corvette is no exception.
