American firm Genovation cars has unveiled its new GXE, an electric sports car based on a Chevrolet C7 Corvette Grand Sport that it says is capable of more than 220mph.

The Genovation GXE, which has been revealed at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada, featured twin electric motors driving the rear wheels, which the firm says combine to produce more than 789bhp, with more than 700lb ft of torque.

The Genovation GXE will be made in a limited-edition run of 75 units, each in a bespoke colour, with initial deliveries scheduled for later this year.

Genovation has previously built the GEE, a reworked electric Corvette Z06 that produced 592bhp and set a land speed record for a road-legal EV of 205.6mph.
