If rumors are to be trusted, Test Track may be seeing some significant changes in 2012. GM is in talks to extend their current sponsorship through 2022, and part of the deal includes a major overhaul of the attraction. In the proposed scenario, the basic track of the ride would remain, but pretty much everything else would change. And here's a really interesting tidbit: the ride vehicles are to be designed by GM's design, research, and development group--not by Disney Imagineers.
The attraction would still have the same basic theme--a look inside the world of vehicle design, development, production, and testing--but the new version would include some of the original ideas and history that were a part of the original World of Motion attraction.
As far as when the attraction will actually close to begin this grand refurbishment, expect to see it happening soemtime in the first half of 2012.
