"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 in the company press release. "It is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."

The company will auction off the first retail production mode Stingray convertible at the Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach collector car auction to benefit the Barbara Anna Karmanos Cancer Institute. The auction date has yet to be revealed.

The Corvette Stingray convertible will be unveiled at the Chevrolet press conference, which will be held on March 5, in Hall 1 of the Palexpo exposition center at approximately 2:00 a.m. Eastern according to the company's press release.

"Every Corvette is designed at the outset as an open car," said Tadge Juechter, Corvette chief engineer in the company press release. "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 back roads."
