General Motors released their monthly figures this morning for January’s new car deliveries which showed 2,261 Corvettes were sold. In direct comparison, only 908 new Corvettes were sold in January 2013. The January 2014 figure is the lowest number of Corvettes delivered since last September when the new C7 Corvettes started shipping and the dip in sales is most likely a combination of the plant being closed for the holidays as well as the winter weather that covered much of the United States last month.
Despite the weather, Corvette’s January was red hot. First the car was named the 2014 North American Car of the Year and then the new 2015 Corvette Z06 was shown to the public for the first time during the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The C7.R was also displayed for the first time in full livery at NAIAS and then it made its racing debut at the Rolex 24 Hours of Detroit where it finished fifth in class.
