The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible will make its world debut on March 5 at the Geneva Motor Show.

"It's fitting to introduce the new Stingray convertible on the global stage at Geneva, because Corvette is the face of Chevrolet the world over," said Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac Europe. "It is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."



Currently, there are Corvette owner and enthusiast clubs in more than 100 countries. In fact, 58 percent of the 1.1 million fans who like Corvette's official Facebook page are outside the United States.



The Corvette Stingray convertible will deliver the same balance of technology, design and performance introduced on the coupe earlier in January in Detroit.



"Every Corvette is designed at the outset as an open car," said Tadge Juechter, Corvette chief engineer. "The new Stingray is no different, with the coupe and convertible designed to excel in any situation - be it your daily commute, a drive across the continent, or charging through twisting backroads."
