Electrified Vette - GM Interview (video)


DETROIT – General Motors will produce an electrified Chevrolet Corvette next year, followed by an all-electric version of the iconic sports car, GM President Mark Reuss said Monday.

Reuss said the automaker will continue to produce traditional models with internal combustion engines alongside the electrified models. He declined to disclose when the all-electric Corvette would be released or whether the “electrified” model would be a traditional hybrid or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle.

“We will have an electrified Corvette next year. It’s coming very quick,” Reuss told CNBC’s Phil LeBeau during an interview on “Squawk Box.”

Sorta the opposite of twin turbos. RIP.

My wife and I are doing a 2 week destination road trip and have a 3LT Z51 convertible rented through Turo. Looking forward to getting acquainted since I haven't had a chance to drive one yet. Everyone I knew that had one sold/flipped in short order for a redonk profit.


Two weeks, ~2000 miles throughout the Southwest and I was in love. We got home on a Saturday and the following Friday I picked up a new 2022 HTC, Z51, 3LT. :beer:
