The C7, a.k.a the next Corvette, will have a split rear window as on the 1963 Corvette Sting Ray, according to Ed Welburn, General Motors’ head of global design.
Welburn, acknowledged to be the father of the re-born Camaro, confirmed that the next Vette would follow the 2010 Camaro down the road of retro-inflected styling. If you looked at the second Transformers movie closely, there was a Corvette Stingray concept shown that hinted at the design. Welburn said that the split-window is something that he expects for the next Corvette. He explains that visibility isn’t now much of a problem due to the back-up cameras and blind-spot detection systems that are available.
