It’s no secret that Chrevolet wants to maximize the performance of the Corvette saga. The quintessential American sports car has won over millions of drivers for many generations. More than a car, it’s an institution that the brand now wants to make the most of. According to various reports, Chevrolet plans to expand the Corvette family with two new bodies, a sedan and an SUV. which will use electric mechanics that will take the sports car to another level.
To talk about the Corvette is to talk about one of the most famous American cars in history. Its name radiates sportsmanship on all four sides. Each new generation has been more extreme and spectacular, from the elegant and rounded C1 to the aggressive and sharp C7. It’s no secret that Chevrolet is working on a hybrid drivewe actually saw it circulate more than once in its test phasebut the rumors are now pointing in a new direction, or at least that’s what the reports he has had access to indicate Muscle cars and trucks.
They state that yes there will be an electric Corvette, but not in the eighth generation (the current one) but in the next one, in the ninth. The current model still has a few years to live, and the Americans would take the opportunity to launch a new generation with the radical change in format. This revelation contradicts what has been taken for granted in recent months. Logic says that Chevy it will not get rid of thermal engines because it would leave the market open to its competitors.
In another order of details, the Corvette family will grow. General Motors executives see the sports car as a great way to expand the family with other business products. Reports reveal the arrival of two additional bodies from the year 2025, both using the platform just released on Chevrolet Blazer EV. A structure designed for the electrical mechanic capable of adapting to multiple bodies and uses.
The first of the proposed units is a four-door sedan that would replicate the design of the Corvette, but would add more interior space. It would be a competing model of the Porsche Taycan, at least in concept and format. A family electric sports car that would replicate the Germans and the good sales figures they garner. As they say, it wouldn’t see the light of day until 2025, so development should start in the middle of next year.
Last but not least, General Motors revamps the ability to include an SUV body in the family. It’s not the first time we’ve heard something like this, but this time it looks like Chevrolet has already made up its mind. Using the same platform, the Corvette SUV will display high-performance 100% electric mechanics which will allow him to stand up to his rivals in the category of Ford Mustang Mach-E GT. A mirror to look at. As Ford has already done with the Mustang, Chevrolet wants to replicate it with the Corvette, giving wings to a family that has many ways to exploit itself.
