TTAC reader/contributor Matt Fink generously photograph a whole bunch of metal for TTAC during the Detroit Auto Show. Here are his pictures of the C7 Corvette Stingray. I’m still not sold on the vents and the rear end treatment.

- Zerofoo No.My wife has worked from home for a decade and I have worked from home post-covid. My commute is a drive back and forth to the airport a few times a year. My every-day predictable commute has gone away and so has my need for a charge at home commuter car.During my most recent trip I rented a PHEV. Avis didn't bother to charge it, and my newly renovated hotel does not have chargers on the property. I'm not sure why rental fleet buyers buy plug-in vehicles.Charging infrastructure is a chicken and egg problem that will not be solved any time soon.
- Analoggrotto Yeah black eyeliner was cool, when Davey Havok was still wearing it.
- Dave M. My sweet spot is $40k (loaded) with 450 mile range.
- Master Baiter Mass adoption of EVs will require:[list=1][*]400 miles of legitimate range at 80 MPH at 100°F with the AC on, or at -10°F with the cabin heated to 72°F. [/*][*]Wide availability of 500+ kW fast chargers that are working and available even on busy holidays, along interstates where people drive on road trips. [/*][*]Wide availability of level 2 chargers at apartments and on-street in urban settings where people park on the street. [/*][*]Comparable purchase price to ICE vehicle. [/*][/list=1]
- Master Baiter Another bro-dozer soon to be terrorizing suburban streets near you...

Awful color, I'll wait till I see it in person before I'd say it was ugly or not, but it certainly looks like a squared off C6, with a few too many bodywork gimicks. I'm sure it can deliver when it comes to performance, but if I were to compare this rework with the one that was done on the Viper I'd say the Viper was done better and with far less presumption. Really at first glance it looks like something you'd see at a SEMA booth from an aftermarket custom shop not from the manufacterer.
I see a lot of other cars in the design. Hopefully they got the interior right.
