Created by GM\u2019s advanced design studio in Leamington Spa, UK, it won\u2019t go into production, but it offers a preview of the direction Corvette could take. This new concept is fully electric, but GM has confirmed that the next-generation Corvette will not be EV-only. A V8 is expected to remain an option.<\/p>\n<p><iframe class=\"zeen-lazy-load-base zeen-lazy-load\" title=\"FIRST LOOK: Shock Next-Gen Corvette Concept!\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"about:blank\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QCa-JGOx6jw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><noscript><iframe title=\"FIRST LOOK: Shock Next-Gen Corvette Concept!\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QCa-JGOx6jw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Corvette has always been a symbol of American performance.
