Corvette Mike’s New – Follow Us!

Photo Credit: GeneralMotorsDesign / Instagram   GM President Mark Reuss recently revealed on the Inside EVs podcast that while the idea of an all-electric Corvette remains possible, it’s not happening just yet.

Reuss explained that building a true Corvette experience, balancing dynamics, weight, and thermal performance, remains a major challenge with today’s EV technology. “An all-electric Corvette that drives like a Corvette isn’t easy right now,” he said. “We’ll get there when the technology makes it right.”

For now, GM’s focus will stay on perfecting its current lineup, including the hybrid C8 E-Ray. Forecasts show the C8 program running through 2028, with the next-gen C9 likely keeping an internal combustion engine well into the 2030s.

Translation: the roar of the V8 isn’t going away anytime soon.

Corvette Racing Rallies to Dramatic Victory at Fuji

As the 2025 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) nears its finale, Corvette Racing roared to victory at Fuji Speedway on September 28th. The No. 81 Corvette Z06 GT3.R, fielded by TF Sport and driven by Charlie Eastwood, Rui Andrade, and Tom Van Rompuy, battled back from an early penalty to claim the LMGT3 class win, their second of the season.

The team’s fortunes turned in the final laps, when Eastwood charged from an eight-second deficit to finish just behind the No. 21 Ferrari. A post-race penalty against Ferrari handed the Corvette trio their long-awaited first WEC win together.

“It was unbelievable,” Eastwood said. “Right place, right time, but also you have to execute. Everything went right in the last couple of hours, and I’m super pleased to finally get my first WEC win with these guys.”

We Remember

Today, we pause to remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and to honor the courage of the first responders, service members, and everyday heroes who showed extraordinary strength in the face of tragedy.

We stand with the families and communities who continue to carry the weight of that day, and we are grateful for the resilience and unity that remind us of the best in America.

Never Forget.
