With the Corvette Assembly Plant shut down over parts shortages in May and June, we’ve been waiting to see how General Motors was going to handle the remaining allocations for the 2021 Corvette model year.

The two choices for the automaker would be to extend the model year to make up for the lost production weeks, or to issue less (or none) allocations and stick to the planned production schedule. Dealers were expecting one more allocation cycle in June, and now GM has decided to call the current model year a wrap and is sticking with its plans to start the 2022 model year in early September.
