Well at least in the future according to Vehicle line executive Tom Wallace who sees the next Gen Corvette as smaller and greener or more eco friendly.
"I don't think we're going to design a 700-hp Corvette," Tom Wallace, vehicle line executive for the Corvette, said at the Detroit auto show. "What's going to be more important is fuel economy, carbon footprint and green. We have already paid a lot of attention to those areas. Where we can pay more attention is pounds per horsepower."
Ok that's a great way to get out of giving any information to the hungry Corvette enthusiast, but really how many Corvettes are really out there polluting the planet, the car is already very emissions friendly and doesn't even qualify for a gas guzzler tax.
Just keep the course and focus on a lighter more space and weight efficient car and keep chipping away at the weight of the truck and sedan market, that should go a long way towards helping the environment.
