GM Shifts Back to Gas, Pausing New Chevy and Cadillac EVs

GM plans no major new EVs for Chevrolet or Cadillac over the next few years as it pivots back toward internal-combustion models. Cadillac will roll out ICE updates to the CT5, XT5, and XT6 next spring and will sell gas-powered variants alongside its EVs, while the Bolt is ending production and a gas crossover is planned to replace it in Kansas. The Equinox EV, Blazer EV, and Silverado EV will remain in GM’s lineup, the company reports sizable EV-related charges (about $10.9 billion since H2 2025) but has raised its full-year profit guidance to roughly $14–$16 billion, and the move signals intensified competition from Hyundai and others entering the EV space.

Chevrolet's 2027 Corvette Stingray Reaches 200 MPH in Base Form

GM confirms the 2027 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, starting at $73,495, can reach 200 mph in base trim thanks to a 6.7L LS6 V-8 producing 535 hp; the Z51 package adds downforce and lowers the top end, so 200 mph is exclusive to the base model. It’s the cheapest new 200 mph car, with the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing at 205 mph as the next closest benchmark—timed to National Corvette Day.

GM's LS7: The 7.0L Small-Block That Redefined Corvette Power

GM's LS7 is a 7.0-liter naturally aspirated V8 built on Gen IV small-block tech, produced 2006–2015 for the Corvette Z06 and Camaro Z/28. By oversizing the bore to 4.125 inches and using steel liners, six-bolt mains, deck-plate honing, titanium rods, a forged crank, CNC heads with titanium intake valves and sodium-filled exhaust valves, and a dry-sump, it delivers 505 hp and 470–481 lb-ft while revving to 7,000 rpm. Hand-assembled at GM's Wixom Performance Build Center, the engine is renowned for power density in a compact package, though valve-guide wear from its 12-degree valve angle prompted warranty fixes. With proper tuning, the block/crank are rated near 1,000 hp and it remains a popular crate engine (~$18k–$20k) and a benchmark for GM performance history.
