Electrified Corvettes in development

With more than 20,000 units of the eighth-generation Chevrolet Corvette sold since it arrived in showrooms last year, expanding this sports car family is next on the C8 program's agenda. In keeping with GM's goal to launch 20 electric cars and trucks by 2025, engineers currently are busy electrifying the new Corvette.

A Corvette hybrid will arrive for the 2023 model year wearing the ‘E-Ray’ trademark GM registered six years ago, according to industry sources who are not permitted to discuss the program publicly. To provide running room for this upstart, the Corvette's iconic Grand Sport trim has been given a leave of absence.
