Default Corvette Show-history Channel-june 9

Hands on History
Corvettes.
Tune In:
Thursday, June 9 @ 12pm ET/PT
@6PM ET/PT
Days after ramping up production of the 6th generation Corvette, General Motors gave Hands on History access to its Bowling Green, Kentucky plant to capture the manufacture of the total model redesign of the famous muscle car, which took designers eight years to conceive. Streamlined, narrowed, and trimmed--once considered a large sports car, it's now about the size of a Porsche 911. Reports indicate that the C6 is the most aerodynamic Corvette ever made, and with its 400hp engine, it can do 0 to 60 in 3.9 seconds and travel comfortably at 180 mph. Chevrolet replaced the Vette's signature hidden headlamps with exposed bi-xenon headlights. Inside GM's 1-million square foot facility, the C6 travels 7.2 miles along the assembly line, and host Ron Hazelton test-drives one of the first finished cars. TVG cc
