      Some of the best examples of light weighted materials are carbon fibre in the roof panels, SMC (sheet moulding compound) of lighter density in fenders, rear quarter panels, doors, rear hatch panel and carbon nano composites for underbody panels.

The main focus of GM while designing the new model has been on interior, exterior and lightweight. The interior of the car features aluminum and carbon fibre. Seats of new Stingray have been designed based on the light weight magnesium frame.

      The management of General Motors stated in a report that the main reason behind introducing carbon fibre in the roof and hood was nothing but company's intention to take the weight off the high panels and front in order to drive the centre of gravity down.
