GM is considering building a family of all-electric vehicles with Corvette badging, according to a report from Bloomberg.
According to the report:
GM has designers working on several Corvette-brand concept vehicles that target a wider range of buyers, said the people, who asked not to be named because the plan has not been publicly unveiled. These seek to blend Corvette’s reputation for high-performance driving and rakish styling with creature comforts such as more interior room and storage, the people said. They added that the program is referred to internally as Project R or Brand R.
A Corvette SUV could go on sale as soon as 2025 but probably after that, Bloomberg reported.
Ford may have started a trend when it borrowed the nameplate from the iconic Mustang sports car for its all-electric crossover called the Mustang Mach-E.
Will Corvette fans be accepting of the model expanding into SUVs?
