It's been less than a month since Chevrolet revealed its long-awaited 2014 Corvette Stingray at the Detroit Motor Show, and with less than two months to go before the doors open at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, Autoweek is reporting the C7 Convertible will make its live appearance at the Swiss event. Back in 2004 at Geneva, Chevy revealed the C6 convertible to the world. But unlike the outgoing C6, the new C7 has been engineered to be a true world-class sports car.

Judging by everything we've seen and read about the Stingray coupe, we have no doubt that its convertible counterpart will attract buyers young and old who'd normally never consider a Corvette. That's absolutely vital if Chevrolet wants its new high-performance sports car to be a formidable player on the global stage. The C7 Corvette Stingray convertible will be powered by a 6.2-liter V8 mated to either a standard seven-speed manual or a six-speed automatic, all of which carry over unchanged from the coupe. We'll receive more information regarding pricing, etc. as we get closer to Geneva.
