Chevrolet partnered with the MotorTrend Group to unveil “Project X,” which is an electrified 1957 Chevy hot rod. That’s right, the original supercharged LSX V-8 was replaced with an electric motor producing an estimated 340 hp and 330 lb-ft of torque.
Chevrolet made a big splash at the 2021 SEMA Show in Las Vegas with the Chevy Beast. This supercharged off-road concept was built to showcase the capabilities of Chevy trucks and Chevrolet Performance components, and to be honest, it looks like something straight from the Halo universe.

The all-new 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe is set to get a police package, complete with a redesigned front fascia for a high approach angle, rugged skid plate, recovery hook openings, and 20-inch steel wheels with all-season tires. This special law enforcement model will also be offered with black and illuminated Chevy bowtie options.
This vehicle started its life as a 1999 Chevrolet Corvette C5, but after lots of work, it was transformed into an off-road dune buggy using the factory chassis as well as drivetrain. First, the fiberglass body had to be removed, the front / rear frame rails shortened, and an exterior cage fabricated from DOM tubing. It’s powered by a 5.7L LS1 V8 generating 345 hp and 350 lb-ft of torque, mated to a six-speed manual gearbox.
Barrett-Jackson received a $3-million bid for the very first 2020 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray C8 to roll off the production line at its January auction in Scottsdale, Arizona, with all proceeds being given to a Detroit educational charity. This mid-engined C8 Corvette with VIN 001 has the Z51 Performance package and the 495-hp 6.2-liter LT2 V8 engine.
