If it's $5000, yes.
If it's $80,000, no.
That is a pointless article without pricing info.

I would buy it if it was some sort of hybrid that allowed me to use it on the track. Being only electric would make it useless for the track so I would not buy it. But if they made a good hybrid (kind of like F1 cars) where you get more HP from the electric motor I would definitely consider buying it if it proved to be reliable.

If its a hybrid AWD 650+ hp for less than $50,000... yes please

If not FU GM!

An overpriced ugly 4 door with a 300 mile range and batteries that will need to be replaced in less than a decade for around $20K? No thanks.

Price is the key as always. What is a EV ZL1 gonna cost, probably $100000. Prefer manual transmission pony/muscle cars, so I have little interest in costly performance EV’s.

No! The sound and feel/ vibration of the v8 gives it a soul.
I don’t want to drive a microwave
