The grand finale of the attraction attempted to predict a real future for transportation, with CenterCore, a sparkling metropolis that seemed to be in perpetual motion, and Pepper's Ghost illusions putting guests into futuristic vehicles. At the ride's conclusion, visitors disembarked into the TransCenter, an interactive area about new products in development by GM. World of Motion closed in 1996. GM was still the sponsor for the World of Motion's replacement attraction: Test Track. Chevrolet eventually replaced GM as the sponsor of Test Track.
