After almost 70 years in service, the Corvette is still a sportscar with superb performance and excellent driving dynamics that you can also drive daily. However, a rumor regarding an electric Corvette sedan has sparked the intention to develop practical Corvettes. SRK Designs has imagined what a four-door, front-engined version of the "America's sportscar" would look like while highlighting the present Corvette coupe design.

The true competitor of the Porsche Panamera

The current-selling Corvette is in its eighth generation, introduced in 2020, and is available as a convertible and coupe. As America’s only true sportscar with heritage, it is much more than an automotive legend. But we are looking at a four-door sports sedan rendering, which leads us to wonder what would happen if it were to go into production. At first glance, you will notice no air ducts on the sides. Additionally, the butterfly doors have been swapped to more conventional ones with flush handles. Finally, the blacked-out 19-inch wheels are wrapped in Pirelli P Zero tires, and the sedan sits closer to the ground.

This rendering suggests that the front and rear fascia designs will remain similar to the C8 Corvette. Although the sedan will be significantly longer and broader than the coupe, the platform will be different. Also, the V-8 engine would sit over the front axle, unlike the rear mid-mounted configuration found on the regular Corvette. The pixel master believes that Chevrolet will develop a similar idea to build an electric Corvette. He has used a Z06 as the base, which is why the rendered prototype looks muscular for a sports sedan.

A V-8-powered Corvette sedan is a rare possibility

Chevrolet has confirmed that the ninth-gen Corvette will be a fully electric sportscar. Recently, a rumor has surfaced in the automotive world about an electric Corvette sedan, which is set to launch by 2025. It is believed that the newly launched Chevy Blazer EV will share its powertrain and platform with the upcoming Corvette sedan. This indicates that the demise of the 6.2-liter and 5.5-liter V-8 engines is imminent, and we expect the new EV Corvette to be introduced by the end of 2030. This is GM’s strategy to make the Corvette moniker more popular, as it has always targeted a niche audience. Much like Ford with the Mustang Mach-E, we think an EV sedan with a Corvette badge would make Chevy print more notes than they ever did.
