2024 Changes?

So I saw the thread from the bash about the nannies being added. Also during the Corvette Today podcast, they alluded to soft close for the frunk. Any other changes mentioned besides paint colors for 2024?

I think that's just about all that's been announced so far.

-Colors
-AEB
-Lane Keep Assist
-Auto High Beams
-Electronic Frunk close
-Optional Clear Engine Cover for Convertible

Auto high beams and the frunk close will be nice. AEB and lane keep not so much.

Just wish the headlights were "Adaptive High Beams", not just auto dimming.

Are those even legal in the US? I had to code those into my BMW, the European counterpart had them

Not yet, but the Gen3 Ford Raptor has them, they are just not active from the factory. (Some have done a ForScan mod to enable them).

Porsche was ok'd to activate mine on my 21' and 23' turbo s's,a few months ago, there is a difference (did one car then the other to see the differences) but it was not huge as the lights are fantastic to begin with, and above 70 the pattern changes and throws the light even further. I have porsche service software and had the option on my software but it did not switch it, had to go to the dealership, they checked into it and said they were allowed to do it.

The 2023 doesn’t have active handling nor traction control? Or did I not understand the comments by OP?

Yes, they are legal in the US now, but the law is still a little different than the rest of the world, so it's more than just the manufacturer activating what was used in other countries, unfortunately.

Yes, you misunderstood. The OP is referring to the new safety features for all Corvettes for 2024 as noted above and no related to existing components.

Yes, people still give Kia/Hyundai/Genesis crap and don't realize they are leading the market in many of the technological aspects.

Is it external?

No, it’s only viewable when the top is in service mode.

This is the OEM one... clearly they felt heat protection was still important vs. the aftermarket ones.

I believe it was said that one was a prototype and the production unit would look better....whatever that means.

I hope lane keep can be turned off.

Same trunk close the 3rd gen f-bodies had? Hope not!
