GM Adding Hybrid Corvette In 2023
All-Electric Version Soon After!

Courtesy of GM

GM President Mark Reuss told CNBC that an “electrified” version of Chevrolet’s ultimate sports car will be launched in 2023 with a fully electric Corvette arriving soon after. The first version will be an all-wheel-drive hybrid.

“This is in addition to all the great performance that Chevrolet and Corvette have been known for, for many, many years with our internal combustion engine, so it’s in addition to that,” said Reuss, who did not disclose an exact date for the EV debut.

The all-electric Corvette will use GM’s proprietary Ultium battery platform. The project began about mid-2020 when the automaker reassigned some of the engineers responsible for the mid-engine Corvette to deliver higher performance to future EVs.

Corvette has been defined by raw power and a roaring exhaust. The addition of front-mounted electric motor(s) should keep this great sound and add all-wheel-drive performance. We may lose the Frunk though.

Rusty’s 1969 Corvette and Corvette Powered Boat

Upon graduating from medical school in 1969, I purchased my first car: a 1969 Monza Red Corvette Stingray at Baher Chevrolet in Northridge, CA. ($5927.50). This was a unique car because it had the RPO L36 427cu, 390 hp engine paired to the Turbo Hydra-Matic Automatic Transmission (80% of Corvettes that year had a manual transmission). The car did not come with the factory side exhaust option (a one-year-only option) but I added the side exhausts after acquiring the car. I sold the car in 1974 and have never seen an identical car for sale.

In the late 1960s, my father and I built a ski boat in our garage. We bought a 427cu/390hp crate Corvette engine and installed it in the boat. This was one helluva fast ride!gorgeous.
