There was no new information released regarding the top-tier Corvette with an internal combustion engine (and potentially hybrid batteries), but it was formally recognised, which has never occurred before. The evidence for the existence of that spacecraft has been mounting, but there hasn’t been much in the way of teasers or formal pronouncements. In contrast, the first all-wheel drive, hybrid Corvette has yet to be introduced. We are aware of its existence. It will most likely replace the Grand Sport trim that has been available on Corvettes for many decades.
But how might an EV based on the C8’s architecture look? Various firms have various views on how to build a decent electric sports vehicle. Rimac employs a battery that replaces the engine in a mid-engined vehicle, as well as cell stacking in the vehicle’s structural centre tunnel. Ferrari, on the other hand, has patents that show batteries just at the rear of the vehicle. The first Tesla Roadster did it this way.
