Chevrolet gave enthusiasts a bold look at the future of performance, unveiling two dramatic Corvette concept cars, the Corvette CX and Corvette CX.R Vision Gran Turismo, during The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering in Carmel, California. While these concepts are not intended for production, they signal the next chapter in Corvette’s design language and performance philosophy, drawing on over 70 years of heritage while pushing toward an electrified, high-performance future.
“These concepts demonstrate our design teams stepping away from production constraints and unleashing their creativity,” said Phil Zak, executive design director for Chevrolet. “Each crease and line has roots in Corvette generations past, while defining the design direction moving forward.”
Designed and built at Chevrolet’s Performance Studio in Warren, Michigan, the Corvette CX is a low, wide, all-electric supercar delivering over 2,000 horsepower through four motors with all-wheel torque vectoring. Active aerodynamics, including a Vacuum Fan System for massive downforce, are paired with a fighter-jet-inspired canopy and a driver-focused cabin finished in Inferno Red ballistic textiles, carbon fiber, and aluminum. A digital windscreen display integrates real-time performance data directly into the driver’s line of sight.
Building on the CX platform, the CX.R VGT is a pure competition car — lighter, lower, and designed exclusively for the track. It pairs three electric motors with a 900-horsepower, 15,000-rpm V8 running on renewable e-fuel, for a combined output of 2,000 hp. Its aggressive aero package, raw carbon interior, and racing-focused cockpit bring Corvette’s GT racing heritage into a new era.
Chevrolet partnered with Polyphony Digital Inc. to bring both concepts into Gran Turismo 7 later this month, allowing fans to virtually experience Corvette’s bold vision for the future.
