After more than six years on the market, the eighth-generation Chevrolet Corvette is probably in its sunset years, but as is the automaker’s custom, there’s one more trim level that needs to come before retirement. The long-rumored Grand Sport will be that vehicle, which in previous generations slotted between the base Corvette and the hot Z06, with the powertrain of the former and the handling improvements of the latter. That may change for the mid-engined sports car, however, as rumors have begun swirling that the newest GS will actually be an all-wheel-drive hybrid that replaces the E-Ray – with more power than the Z06 to boot.
