GM's EV Corvette Concept Strips Down the V8 Legacy - Yanko Design
Briefly

General Motors is revolutionizing the Corvette with an all-electric concept, aimed at a global audience. Unveiled at its Advanced Design Studio in England, the new design emphasizes innovative features like gullwing doors, a sleek aerodynamic profile, and the elimination of traditional front grilles. The vehicle’s aesthetic focuses on modernity rather than nostalgia, seeking to appeal to both European and American markets. The Corvette's heritage, while transformed, remains evident in subtle cues like the split rear window, marrying electric innovation with iconic design elements.
GM has planted this concept in European soil with deliberate purpose. This isn't a car built for one continent. It's aimed at drivers from Stuttgart to San Francisco.
The entire upper half of the vehicle tilts toward sculpture, not memory. Those gullwing doors... make a dramatic entrance without being theatrical.
EVs don't need front grilles, and GM doesn't pretend otherwise. In its place, light signatures define the fascia with a shape that still looks aggressive, but with intention.
It feels more like a low-slung hypercar than a traditional coupe. But the Corvette DNA lingers-most noticeably in the split rear window, a nod to the 1963 Sting Ray.
