Corvette Engineering Chief Hoses Down Mid-Engined Rumours

Whatever GM is hiding under its recently spied Holden Ute-based prototype, it isn’t a mid-engined Corvette. That’s the word from Tadge Juechter, chief engineer for the Corvette, speaking with American online talkshow Autoline After Hours.


Whatever GM is hiding under its recently spied Holden Ute-based prototype, it isn’t a mid-engined Corvette.

That’s the word from Tadge Juechter, chief engineer for the Corvette, speaking with American online talkshow Autoline After Hours.

Acknowledging speculation of a new mid-engined ‘Corvette Zora’, Juechter said that if such a model exists, his team isn’t involved.

“I’ll have to check that out, because I know no such car exists. Frankly, if such a car exists, it belongs to another division is my best speculation,” he told the panel.

The prototype in question, spied by US magazine Car & Driver in January, appears to be a Frankensteined mix of the Corvette’s cabin sandwiched between the nose and tub of a Holden ute.
