General motors to limit Corvette Stingray production despite high demand

The 2014 Corvette Stingray has been welcomed by the car lovers with both hands and hence its demand far outweighs the supply and this now requires the production to be increased. However, GM has clearly stated that it does not have plans to increase production as of now and so the demand of all customers may not be met.

The statement was made by Corvette Chief Engineer Tadge Juechter who confirmed that the Bowling Green Assembly Plant that is solely responsible for producing the 2014 Corvette will continue to output the current 160 units per day which means there is no scope for increase as of now.

Juechter justified stating “It’s not worth making that investment of a second shift, even though for a while we make a lot more money getting those cars out there.”

As a result, the customers who want the Corvette Stingray anyhow may be required to pay a high premium over the base price to get their hands on the sports car. The waiting list for the Corvette Stingray currently is believed to be around 6 months. The pricing kicks off from $ 51,995 for the coupe and $ 56,995 for the convertible version.
