    Apparently there's a special adaptive cruise control mode called "Eco Run" that will score you based on the car you're drafting and adjust the distance accordingly to reduce fuel consumption. (See 13:15)

    There's also active underbody spats that deploy at over 70km/h to reduce drag from the front tyres. (See 15:00)

    And what happens when every car on the road is equipped with that bit of software?

    Autonomous train of vehicles? Also, no Corvette owner will want this feature anyway.
