During a recent visit to EPCOT, it was impossible to miss the significant changes underway at Test Track.

Among the most noticeable changes is the complete removal of the iconic covered canopy, including its large support columns.

The overhaul was officially announced during the Horizons: Disney Experiences Showcase at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, where Walt Disney Imagineering shared exciting details about the future of Test Track. In collaboration with Chevrolet, Disney is pushing innovation forward while celebrating humanityโ€™s enduring driveโ€”both literally and figurativelyโ€”on the road to a brighter tomorrow. However, before this transformation is fully realized, Test Track will also pay homage to todayโ€™s innovations and the past, present, and future of automotive design.

Guests can expect the queue to be transformed into a celebration of automotive achievements, with six distinct exhibits highlighting the vehicles and the people behind them who have continually pushed the boundaries of whatโ€™s possible. Each room will provide a deeper understanding of how these advancements have shaped our lives and continue to drive us toward the future.
