2025 Chevrolet Corvette SUV: Everything We Know So Far

Chevy is turning the Corvette into an SUV for the same reason Apple decided to get into the phone business: Money.

As Ford has proven with the Mustang Mach-E, taking an iconic nameplate and expanding it into a greater sub-brand is profitable. As well as the C8 has been doing since its debut in 2020, it simply can’t compete with a high-volume SUV or crossover, and you need not look any further than Porsche and Lamborghini for proof.

In 2022, Lamborghini sold 5,367 Lamborghini Urus compared to just 3,866 Huracans and Aventadors combined. At Porsche, the numbers are even better, with the company selling 44,882 Cayennes and Macans last year compared to just 25,183 of all the other vehicles in its range combined.
