The"godfather" of GM's modern day Corvettes, Tadge Juechter, retired Wednesday after roughly 47 years with the automaker, including 31 years devoted to Corvette.
Juechter wasn't inclined to disclose any details of an upcoming Corvette EV, but he believes the E-Ray proves GM can successfully electrify Corvette. "I don't know if we need to spin off. I mean, Corvette's at the heart of Chevrolet. It's a pure business play. If you've got this brand equity, you can just keep it at home or you can choose to try to monetize it and put it outside.
"How you leverage it. That's a question for the future. You see the models we're rolling out. We're making the maximum of this mid-engine architecture. And, you know, I've made no secret I work on EVs, too, and trying to bring some of the performance spirit into the EV space. How that gets applied in the future and how it gets branded, that's a story for another day," he said.
