It was no secret that Kunos Simulazioni officially licensed the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7.R as part of the Assetto Corsa content. Today the development team posted three work-in-progress renders of the model.

The Chevrolet Corvette C7.R that was Co-developed with the new 2015 Corvette Z06, is a GT Racer manufactured by Pratt & Miller engineering and General Motors. The car is purpose built to replace the Corvette C6.R. The base for the newest Corvette Racing machine was the C7 road car. The car now races in the North American United SportsCar Championship, where it competes in the GTLM class.

This new Corvette features a brand new, aluminum frame for increased chassis stiffness. The car is powered by a Chevrolet 5.5 litre, fuel-saving direct injection technology V8, FMR small block engine. The Direct Injection should give this Vette a three-percent better fuel economy than its predecessor. This might not seem allot, but keep in mind that this is an endurance racer, where fuel stops can make all the difference.
