Default All-Electric Corvette

I've seen many variations on this information, but I haven't seen this specific quote from a GM executive, If this has already been posted, I apologize.

"As for new vehicles, GM will roll out an all-electric version of the Chevrolet Corvette, President Mark Reuss said."

From an AP article summarizing GM's Investor Day event in NY Thursday (presumably 11/17/22).

yawn.. Not even remotely interested. Would you rather have an exotic Z06 sound, or something you can't even hear?
Choice is pretty obvious..

Yes, I've seen that too. The analogy to the Mustang EV small SUV is obvious. I assume that this is what Reuss is referring to, but I'm not certain. Opinions?

The question is not "if" but "when". I suspect it will not be until the C9 comes out for a full BEV. I am hoping the ERay is a PHEV.

An SUV is an appliance. A fast SUV is a fast appliance. I would consider an electric SUV when the infrastructure is built out more. Since in Florida we have to evacuate for hurricanes, range anxiety is a worry as is not having power for a while after a hurricane.

but an electric sports car is just not for me, I still daily drive a car with a carburetor so I’m slow to change.
