I'm surprised GM hasn't pushed to have Corvette to be more of a sub brand with variants. Something along the lines of the Stingray being the current version, the mid engine being a new ray (mantaray I read somewhere), moving the SS into a Corvette Eagleray and setting the stage for a concept Electricray. They could really leverage the brand value Corvette has built. Not sure the margins and volumes of the current vette, but it has a pretty nice spot in terms of pricing and distance from the Camaro. I can see room between a 55k Stingray and an $80k Mantaray to justify it. Some cannabilization will go on, but I don't know how much demand their will be up the market for the mid engine C8 when compared to the current C7.
