New Test Track concept art
Posted: Saturday September 9, 2023 10:06am ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

Disney has today announced that Imagineers, along with teams from Chevrolet are reaching back into history for inspiration – from the original World of Motion – and bringing that spirit of optimism to the next iteration of the Test Track attraction at EPCOT.

Details are scarce, but Disney has released a piece of concept art of the new experience. The look of the concept art suggests that Test Track may be moving into the EV era.

The current version of Test Track opened in December 2012, and as part of Chevrolet's sponsorship deal with Disney, the attraction is due for a refresh. No closing date or timeframe for the update has been announced.

    But they're testing, so they must be almost done!

    This refurb has now taken 100 days longer than the 1.0 to 2.0 conversion, and counting (but who's counting?) Crazy that we still have no opening date or really anything beyond two pieces of concept art and a look at the vehicle wrap. Starting to get a little worried with how weirdly hush hush they've been for a ride allegedly opening in ~3 months

    It's okay, sometimes it feels like Disney forgot they announced this.

    It's true though. I was trying to remember the girl I went on vacation to WDW at the time, vs the girl who became my wife. My math - never my strong suite is not adding up.

    Between Nirvana, Vanilla Ice and Tupac, the early 90s were a blur.

    Or maybe you're Peter Quill, and you were there in 1983... and 1994... and 1991...

    I just checked, and you are correct. I guess I was there a bit later than I thought.

    That little area outside guest relations was hopping back then. Let’s petition to add a teams/webex option to mobile reservations and mobile ordering.
