Genovation Extreme Electric, the GXE, Will Make Its Debut In September 21 Jul '15
ROCKVILLE, MD – Genovation Cars is getting ready to unveil its prototype for an all-electric Corvette. Dubbed the Genovation Extreme Electric (or GXE for short), the prototype is based on a previous-generation 2006 Chevy Corvette Z06, but ditches its enormous 7.0-liter V8 for an array of inverters, batteries, and electric motors said to be good for over 700 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque.
The GXE should be able to travel for 150 miles on a single charge, and handle well while it's at it with 50/50 front-rear weight distribution and a low center of gravity. Look for the GXE to debut at the Electric Vehicle Technology Expo this coming September in Michigan, after which it will put the GXE to the test on the track to back up its performance claims.
