He wouldn’t, however, comment on future products.

Juechter was open about the realities facing Corvette. Chevy is part of General Motors and has ambitious plans including zero emission vehicles. Although it’s not a confirmation of an electric Corvette being built, GM seems to be more likely to make an electric Corvette than a hydrogen-powered model. But that doesn’t necessarily mean that the electrified ‘Vette will soon be available.

GM’s goal is zero-emission vehicles, but it cannot achieve this overnight. Juechter stated in an interview that electric vehicles will eventually be possible. He also said that his job and that of his team is to help GM achieve its mission. Chevy and Juechter are starting from the C8 Corvette platform. We have the Stingray C8 Corvette model so far. We know that there are many more high-performance versions coming. Electrification is possible.

You shouldn’t expect to be able to log on to the internet one morning and find electric Corvette news. Even for Corvettes, the march towards electrification is slow. The weight and space taken up by batteries is significant. Because the Corvette is small, fitting the battery pack can be difficult. Chevy will likely build an electrified Corvette soon. It’ll likely be a mixed, which is a step towards full electrification.
