What If the Next Chevrolet Corvette Had Four Doors?

For decades, there have been rumors of a roomier 4 door Chevrolet Corvette. GM was even floating the idea of a complete Corvette sub-brand for a while. Not that long ago, after they launched their first Ultium models. Now, it seems no one is talking about a new Chevrolet Corvette sedan. And yet…

While there has been no new word on such a blasphemous vehicle being planned, it would pretty much follow what Porsche did years ago with the Panamera and Cayenne. And especially the Taycan. A 4-door electric Porsche. It seems that an upscale 4 door version of the next-generation Corvette could be a profit bonanza for GM. 

And yes, adding 2 doors to the Corvette would be seen as the ultimate automotive blasphemous move. Although there has been many. A Porsche SUV was also seen as a sacrilegious at first. So did a Bentley SUV.  And many still have a big problem with the Mustang Mach-e. But a high end 4 door sports car would be a gig ticket item. One that could be very tempting for GM

Maybe, just like some future EVs these days, the idea of more body style for the Chevrolet Corvette have been pushed back for a while. And not really canceled altogether. This is what we just learned about the Nissan and Infiniti EV sedans. They have just been pushed back a few years. 

A new 4 door Corvette could still look good and quite impressive if done well. And lets really hope the design of the next generation is cleaner and classier than the current mess.

No matter how many doors it ends up having…
