In yet another UAW document, future General Motors plans have been revealed. In a section outlining new products for GM’s Toledo transmission plant, one line states a “RWD DCT for NG Corvette will be allocated (2012).” DCT usually stands for dual-clutch transmission and another document revealed the next-generation C7 Corvette would bow in 2012. A dual-clutch transmission makes sense since GM is trying to move the Corvette up-class — as indicated by the upcoming ZR-1.
The document also mentioned that GM’s Toledo and Baltimore plants will produce a RWD Gen II Hybrid transmission for 2011/12. This could be an indication that Zeta-platform cars will see a hybrid option.
The news revealed in the document shows that GM has no plans of slowing its North American turnaround. GM was the only U.S. automaker to post an increase in September sales.
