Played? LOL. Let’s see how rigs plays out. Plus you know it won’t have a V8, right?

We will have enough fuel in north America for a thousand years the way the cafe standards are going.

This has been know for a very, very long time. No more Hemi but the new platform will use the Hurricane inline 6 turbo.

Somehow the new Charger appears even bigger than the already large, fat and heavy, current gen Challenger. As an EV it's probably going to weigh 6000 lbs (given the current Hellcat weighs 4500+ lbs). And people wonder why we don't like EVs?

I hope the Camaro comes back as a V8, and I'm totally OK with them offering a hybrid system as well alongside the high performance V8s, both NA and supercharged or turbo if needed to meet emissions. But I prefer the power delivery of the supercharged engine like the LT4 over turbo engines.

For some reason GM has to go through a painful learning curve! first they have to perfect the new electric vet, then maybe bring back the Camaro. It takes a while to be ahead of the times.

If you look at Chevy all the way back to the 60's, they either cant or wont learn. I'll bet Dodge will but a new V8 in their cars way before Chevy will. In fact, I'm sure Dodge will put a V8 in a pony car and GM flat out wont.

Are you talking about those white structures?

Those aren’t diesel generators. That’s the electrical equipment that sends power to the plugs.

Not a V8, but according to the article there will be a 410hp version and the possibility of a 510hp option. Assuming there is a 510hp version that’s going to put it on par with the SS in terms of HP:weight.

The picture is a joke
I mean that somewhere behind the building there is a blue container like that.

Corvette is not a pony or muscle car.
