📰 Auto News Chevy building another sports car based on the C8?

[Mook]

There's an 'incredible' Chevrolet sports car in the works, but what is it?

The Chevrolet Corvette platform will be used for several new versions of the sports car in the coming years, and an all new 'incredible' model that's yet to be revealed.

www.foxnews.com

He said there was another car based on the C8 architecture in the works that will be an "incredible performance car" and should "set the standard of the world for performance for Chevrolet."

He didn't call it a Corvette, and there's been no word on the street about another high-performance sports car in the works, so let the speculation begin.

Vette ute'?

With the direction things are going, im expecting this special model to be an all electric 4 door suv called a corvette E to compete the ford Mach e.

Caddilac BlackWing.

Besides a Camaro what else could use that chassis? Hopefully it's rad.

No way in hell GM undercuts the Corvette with a mid engine Camaro. Its gotta be a higher trim. Its either a higher trim Corvette mule or Cadillac.

Chevy Solstice/Sky.

It’ll be an suv

I thought I remember hearing rumors of Corvette no longer being a Chevy and spinning off into it's own brand. That way Chevy could focus on being lame and shitty. Maybe this is the Corvette SUV. Could be cool.

Does this platform allow for a front-engine configuration? I can't see a mid-engine working well for an SUV. Kind of kills the interior space lol

 

[Lead Pipe]

The return of the Fiero!!!!

Seriously though, the only things I could see is a Caddy but he did say Chevrolet. Maybe the “Zora” will be a stand alone model? Or maybe he’s just trolling.

Full EV

We don't need another incredible performance car. We need one we can actually buy.

Caddy XLR

Full EV

Two front seats and one back seat captain's chair in the middle of the car where the engine would normally be? lol


Seems like a big jump from a low-hung, 2-seater, mid-engine car to a full EV SUV. But hey, let's see what happens.

Caddy XLR

Chevrolet Cadillac XLR? Wut?

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

Can they use this GM (Buick Avista) concept as a starting point?

Of course not. Because people would actually want to buy it. Besides GM trucks and the C8, no one wants anything they offer. Why change that now? lol

You’d be surprised how they can stretch and modify a chassis and still consider it the same platform.
Think Chevy SSR bring the same as a trailblazer.
Or a sonic sedan being the same as a Bolt

at least those examples have super similar wheelbases and are super similar dimensionally.

Yea but 2 door convertible and a 4 door SUV don’t initially look very similar
