GM is facing 'enormous demand' for its 2020 C8 Corvette, and orders are so delayed some customers will get the 2021 model instead
Deliveries of the 2020 Chevrolet C8 Corvette are disrupted because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic
Those who pre-ordered 2020 Corvettes might need to wait just a bit longer before taking delivery of their cars, reports the. Apparently, General Motors had to shut down its US plants for almost seven weeks because of disruptions caused by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. That, plus further complications with parts suppliers, means that resuming production of the car has become an unbelievably complicated process.
"We are not going to build all of the 2020 orders," Kevin Kelly, a GM spokesperson, confirmed to the Detroit Free Press. He said that the company would instead offer a 2021 option to customers and dealers affected by this. There were 20,181 C8 Corvette orders through May 1, Kelly went on. GM sold only 3,820 examples during the first quarter of this year, with most of them being the new 2020 model.
