2014 Corvette uses shape changing materials?

what exactly is this shape changing material? and why exactly is the 2014 corvette going to blow your mind..heres the scoop the new corvette uses this “smart” material that changes shape when heat is applied, basically its a lightweight metal alloy wire that changes its form, hardness and strength, it can also be activated by an electrical field or a voltage. This new material can remember its original shape so after it changes its form it can change back. The new corvette uses this on the hatch vent to help the trunk lid close easier, this material can virtually replace over 200 mechanical movable parts on cars in the future. This material is actually cheaper then what the corvette used before, and cheaper then most motorized parts automotive companies use today. This material has helped trim the new corvette of 99 pounds from the previous model.
