Good points. I see it as even worse. Mainly Corvette is lowering itself to the same level as Mustang. Mustang and Ford never had an answer to Corvette. Mustang was at Camaro level, not Corvette. And now GM is responding to Mach E Mustang by elevating it to Corvette brand status. This is a huge gift and un-forced error by GM that boosts Mustang to Corvette level.
Too bad they are throwing the Corvettes into the brand-x field of EVs. Corvette should stay V-8 ICE sports car only, and not become a pedestrian Mustang SUV-EV competitor.
