GM may expand Corvette lineup to include a crossover SUV

A mid-engine 2020 Chevrolet Corvette on the floor of the Los Angeles Auto Show on Nov. 21, 2019. Michael Wayland / CNBCDETROIT – General Motors is evaluating whether to expand its Corvette lineup – currently a two-seat sports car – to add its first-ever crossover or SUV, a person familiar with the discussions confirmed to CNBC. Bloomberg reported Thursday afternoon that GM has designers working on several Corvette-brand concept vehicles that target a wider range of buyers, likely as an all-electric crossover SUV as early as 2025. If GM decides to expand Corvette to a crossover SUV, it would likely be electric, analysts say. In 2019, Morgan Stanley's Jonas said Corvette was "undervalued and underappreciated by the market" in a note to investors.

Project Blackjack: GM's top-secret redesign of its mid-engine Corvette was disguised in an Australian pickup truck

The eighth-generation Chevrolet Corvette started its life as a Frankenstein test vehicle that parts of the previous generation sports car and Australian-made pickup called the Holden Ute, codenamed internally as "Blackjack." LAS VEGAS General Motors took unprecedented steps in an attempt to hide the development of the redesigned mid-engine 2020 Chevrolet Corvette that arrives in dealerships as early as next week. Codenamed the "Blackjack" prototype, the eighth-generation Corvette started its life as a test vehicle with parts from earlier models and an Australian-made pickup called the Holden Ute all to hide the fact that Chevy was developing its first mid-engine Corvette. "We were trying to not make it clear that we were working on a mid-engine car." Discussions of a mid-engine Corvette had been around for decades and now that GM was actually going to make it a reality, the automaker wanted to hide the plans for as long as possible.

Ford's Mustang Mach-E debut puts pressure on Chevy to build a Corvette SUV

A mid-engine 2020 Chevrolet Corvette on the floor of the Los Angeles Auto Show on Nov. 21, 2019. LOS ANGELES Following Ford Motor's highly anticipated debut of the all-electric Mustang Mach-E SUV, attention is turning to General Motors to potentially leverage the Chevrolet Corvette, its most-iconic nameplate, into a sub-brand and SUV. "It's time to look at the potential of GM's supercar brand," Jonas said, citing it would be "more than a needle-mover for GM." Jonas said the upcoming mid-engine Corvette could "halo a sub-brand that hatches" an all-electric Corvette SUV that would increase Corvette volume fivefold to 80,000 units by the mid-2020s. "Historically, the thought of GM expanding Corvette into anything beyond its single model status would have been brand heresy," Jonas said.

Prices for the 2020 Chevrolet Corvette will start at about $60,000, with prices for the convertible starting at about $67,500. The new Corvette is scheduled to go into production later this year, with the convertible starting production early next year.

GM Unveils A Radically New Corvette

The model is, arguably, the biggest change for the Corvette since the sports car was first introduced in 1953. The Corvette has changed a lot over the years, but it has always remained a front-engined, rear-wheel-drive sports car. The new 2020 Corvette has its engine behind the seats, a change that radically alters the cars appearance and, certainly, how it will feel to drive. In terms of comfort and fun, it still looks and feels like a Corvette, but drives better than any vehicle in Corvette history, said GM president Mark Reuss. GM has long toyed with the idea of a mid-engined Corvette.

The Corvette, America's sports car, almost didn't survive the Great Recession

From the very start, GM didn't quite know what to do with the Corvette. The first car, introduced in 1953 was a striking counterpart to the big sedans and station wagons that, at the time, dominated American highways. But the original Chevrolet Corvette featured a seriously underpowered six-cylinder engine, recalled Ken Gross, an author and automotive historian, and didn't really click with buyers, only 700 being built for 1955. Things changed with the addition of a new, 283 cubic inch V-8 that, Chevy advertised, offered "one hp per cubic inch." But it was the second-generation Corvette that really took off.

Dodge launches the 2020 Charger SRT Hellcat: The world's 'most powerful and fastest' mass-produced car

The muscle car wars continue to heat up as Dodge fires the latest salvo with its 2020 Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody it calls the "most powerful and fastest mass-produced sedan in the world." 2020 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody Source: Fiat Chrysler8-speed transmissionThe 2020 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody's 6.2-liter V-8 uses a massive supercharger to deliver 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque. The Charger Widebody will also get stiffer springs, larger anti-sway bars and retuned shock absorbers to allow it to handle on a track or on winding roads. The addition of the Widebody could help build demand for the more practical, four-door Charger which has traditionally been outsold by the Dodge Challenger. 2020 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody Source: Fiat ChryslerMuscle car warsFord hopes to trounce the Challenger Hellcat line when it officially ships the first Shelby GT500s to dealers for the 2020 model-year.
