IT House April 25 news, today, General Motors President Mark Reuss finally announced that next year (2023) will launch an "electric" Corvette (Corvette). U.S. users have been looking forward to this for a long time.
IT Home learned that the Chevrolet Corvette is a national treasure supercar in the United States, belonging to GM's most high-end super muscle sports car brand. Born in 1953, the series has spawned 8 generations, the latest of which is the 2020 C8.
You may not be very familiar with this brand, but I will show you the car brand logo you may recall. This is the "Wuling Sports Car" that was very popular before.
Some time ago, we sent the Corvette team to the Electric Vehicle Center in Warren, Michigan, and when we released the new mid-engine Corvette, I said "there will be more." This morning, I sat down with CNBC's Phil Loeb and finally answered the question I've been asked countless times.
Yes, in addition to the stunning new Chevrolet Corvette Z06 and other gasoline-powered variants, we're also introducing an electric and all-electric, Ultium-based Corvette platform in the future. In fact, we will launch an electric Corvette as early as next year, and the details and name will be announced later.
In addition, we have brought today the energy recovery system of the Aoteneng platform, an autonomously patented on-board system that absorbs the heat generated by the battery of an electric vehicle and uses it to warm the cabin, creating more efficient charging conditions and even increasing the acceleration of the vehicle. It also increases the vehicle's mileage by about 10%.
Judging from previous revelations, GM is developing a hybrid version of Chevrolet Corvette, which could be called E-Ray. GM has just confirmed the model and has released a trailer for it that shows off the all-wheel-drive hybrid Corvette's ejection performance in the snow and confirms it will be released in early 2023.
Earlier rumors suggested it could be a plug-in hybrid model with up to 1,000 horsepower, but unfortunately Chevrolet didn't elaborate on both, so we can only look forward to more information from the official later.
