Jalopnik digs into whether a Corvette can tow because both it and Chevy trucks run small-block V8s. Spoiler: engine displacement doesn't equal chassis capability. The real story is frame rigidity, suspension geometry, and the fact that Chevy never engineered the C8 (or any Vette) for towing duty—marketing departments and bean counters have different priorities.

General Motors has quietly distributed another round of 2026 Corvette ZR1X allocations to select dealers, keeping even the order submission process under wraps. The secrecy theater around C8 allocation—combined with the ZR1X's supercharged 5.5L dual-overhead-cam engine and mid-engine platform—suggests GM is managing scarcity as a feature, not a constraint.
