During the 2022 SEMA show, master customizers the Ringbrothers turned up with one of the best Chevy K5 Blazer restomods ever. Based on a 1972 K5 Blazer, the Bully now packs a 6.8-liter GM LS3 engine from Wegner Motorsports, along with a massive 4.5-liter Whipple supercharger.

I’ve driven the current gas-powered Chevy Blazer, and while I like its styling, I wasn’t very impressed with its powertrain or driving dynamics. But with the announcement of the 2024 Blazer EV, that could all change.

A price list has surfaced at the Corvette Action Center outlining some changes and MSRP increases for the 2023 Chevrolet Corvette. Unfortunately, prices across the board for all Corvette models appear to be increasing by $1000.

Customizer Specialty Vehicle Engineering is back and is taking the 2022 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 to another level by packing a supercharged 5.3 liter V8 under its hood. The engine in the Xtreme Off-Road truck produces 750 horsepower and 600 lb-ft.

At SEMA 2021, Chevrolet revealed a new crate engine called the ZZ632/1000. It’s a massive 632 cubic-inch power plant that uses electronic fuel injection rated for 1004 horsepower and 876 lb-ft. of torque. Chevy says it’s the most powerful crate engine it’s ever produced using EFI technology.

Last week, Barrett-Jackson held its annual Scottsdale, Arizona auction. Among the cars sold was the first 2023 Corvette Z06, with proceeds benefitting Operation Homefront. Like the other charity auctions Barrett-Jackson has held, all of the hammer price goes to the charity.

I have frequently complained about how dealerships take popular and in-demand vehicles, particularly sports cars, and tack on tens of thousands of dollars onto the MSRP. This price-gouging practice is common in the industry and has been going on for many years.

Ford was the first mainstream automaker to step into the electric truck realm with the F-150 Lightning. Chevrolet has revealed its first electric pickup with the 2024 Silverado EV. The truck will initially come in a fleet-oriented Work Truck and high-end RST trims.

On December 11, Kentucky was hit hard with tornadoes. Lives were lost, and homes, businesses were destroyed. Among the damaged buildings were the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park and the Corvette Assembly Plant in Bowling Green.

For weeks before it officially revealed the C8-based Corvette Z06, Chevrolet teased fans with information on the car. With the car now official, we know how cool it is, and it’s being positioned as a racecar for the streets.

There aren’t many track-ready race cars that the public can purchase. Often, the cars are only available to factory-backed racing teams. One notable exception will be the new Corvette Z06 GT3.R racing car, which will be made available to private teams and the public.

Chevrolet is talking up one of the vehicles it brought to SEMA 2021, the Chevy Beast. The automaker says the truck is a conceptual vision of the ultimate high-performance desert running pickup. Whatever Chevy says, it looks a lot like the Warthog from Halo, which is a good thing if you ask me.

With Chevy showing off its 670 horsepower Corvette Z06 this week, demand has been incredibly strong, with at least one dealer reporting over 1000 people on their waitlist. So chances are that even if you have the money to buy one, you won’t be able to get behind the wheel for until sometime in 2023.

One of the most anticipated vehicle launches of the year is the 2023 Chevy Corvette Z06. The official reveal for the car is set for tomorrow, and at that point, we will know much more about it.

GM has been hit very hard financially and in reputation with a massive recall of its Bolt EV. The costs of the recall are somewhere around $2 billion so far. A bit of good news for owners of Bolt electric vehicles who have been worried about driving or charging them has been announced.
