EPCOT fans, buckle up: Test Track presented by Chevrolet is set to zoom back into the spotlight this summer after a creative pitstop. The attraction, which has been temporarily closed since June of last year for a reimaging project, has received the green light to reopen on July 22 as Test Track presented by General Motors. The upgrades promise a revved-up experience with a fresh musical score and scenes that flaunt the smarts of modern vehicles, as shared by ClickOrlando.
Ahead of the reopening, Disney has teased one of the new features: a scene lit by a dazzling array of 29,000 points of light that mimic how cars today use advanced cameras and sensors to "see" and navigate the world. This luminescent preview, along with leaks of the vehicles' testing in May, is fueling anticipation among Disney enthusiasts and tech aficionados alike.
For insiders and devoted fans, Disney is rolling out the red carpet, albeit a little early. A special sneak peek is on the horizon for Cast members, Annual Passholders, Disney Vacation Club Members, Golden Oak residents, and Club 33 Members, so they should keep their eyes peeled for upcoming announcements. According to a ClickOrlando report, these previews will be happening in just a couple of weeks, just in time to kickstart the summer season.
Since its inception, Test Track has aimed to put the pedal to the metal in showcasing the evolution of automotive design and technology. The latest iteration continues this legacy, accentuating the hands-on experience of the future of road travel. "Its purpose is to serve as a reminder of what road trips are all about: spending quality time with friends and family while taking in the beauty of the world around you," says the Disney Parks Blog, as detailed by WESH. So, whether you’re a car buff or just looking for your next adrenaline fix, this attraction seems set to deliver an experience that's anything but pedestrian.
