WATCH: Another Gaffe? Joe Biden Claims Knowledge Of A 200 MPH Electric Corvette
As wild as the 2020 U.S. presidential election season has been so far, one development we did not have on our bingo card is this one: Does Joe Biden know something the rest of us don't about the future of the Chevrolet Corvette? That's a baffling sentence to write even amid this exhausting and oftentimes horrifying year, but now it's up for discussion thanks to yesterday's video from the Biden campaign.

On Wednesday, Biden—the former Vice President and presumptive Democratic nominee—released a new ad showing him behind the wheel of his 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. And sure, we could ogle the C2 all day, admiring its tasteful shade of Goodwood Green and saddle brown leather seats.

Chevrolet like Porsche sees the inevitability of BEV cars and trucks. Corvette will be a BEV one day. And it will still need to be fast and handle well. That may be in 5 years. It could be in 10. Who knows.

Nah, but we do mention Trump from time to time so this is fair play.

Right... and they’re not good at it at all. I really wish they’d stick to the cars ... LIKE EVERY OTHER CAR SITE ON THE INTERNET!!!!

Nothing negative about this ad. Joe Biden comes across as a "car-guy" which I think he is. The Corvette is beautiful (green and tan - fantastic) and Joe Biden can even drive stick shift just like Lewis Hamilton does!

The video smacks of 'authenticity' which cannot be said about many of the things Trump does which are caught on video.

The remark about the 200MPH electric Corvette seems to be referring about a GM engineer having an informal discussion with Biden about future product plans. This is not a "gotcha" moment.

How many US politicians (citizens for that matter) can drive stick shift by the way?

Love it - thanks for sharing.

By the way, the most famous video of Donald Trump actually driving his own car is from approx 2015 in his Rolls Royce in Florida, with Barron riding shotgun and Melania filming for Facebook in the back seat. Curiously the Taylor Swift song "Blank Space" is playing on the radio. Melania must have a sense of humor.

Biden claims the lie about the Corvette while he was pissing in his pants.

Where to start. Biden’s content made up stories (he either thinks people will not catch him or he is delusional and thinks he had these conversations; or Biden’s anti-business policies that will hurt American industry and benefit the Chinese; or Biden driving a not-so-green car that his pals should be infuriated about? You pick.

Being as this is Autospies, I would think people would be happy to have a President who is a car guy and comes from a car guy family. As for the choice voters will face between a car guy who has devoted himself to public service and overcome tragedies and been the VP, to a sitting President who is was pals with Jeffrey Epstein and (repeatedly) wishes Ghislaine Maxwell well, I don't think there will be much debate in middle America.

I'll take the candidate that knows how to build an economy, reduce unemployment, take on China and puts America first. I'll pass on the candidate who at times doesn't know where he is, makes up stories, is too touchy feely, chooses to make his son wealthy before the countries best interests and is a prisoner of his parties most radical members. That's why we have elections. Everyone gets to choose.

While I wouldn’t call either Biden nor Trump a “Car Guy”, Trump was well known within Italian automotive Community in the Northeast as a Ferrari and Lamborghini owner. He also was one of the sponsors for Ferrari of Long Island & New England’s Challenge Team trailers.

The fact is he was friends with the owner of the dealership who happen to be dating Ivana after their divorce. But owning a collection doesn’t necessarily make you a car guy. But please don’t claim Biden is a “Devoted Public Servant”, Please explain how over 40 years as a government employee enables them to become a multi millionaire?

The Democrats don't want Biden to be President. They want him to win so that he can have a health crisis and the Vice-President takes command. And the best they can do is the blowjob queen and morbidly obese, gapped-toothed chick.

@MD- He will be 78 when it takes office. It should be a younger candidate for sure. He will only be in office for 4 years. No second term. Tap out at 82 if not earlier as you suggest. Susan Rice would make an great VP and likely a great President. She seems to be the leading candidate at this point.

"Unmasking" Susan "Benghazi" Rice is as corrupt a political hack as they come. With her the ends always justifies the means. No integrity, no honesty.

@Pugproud... 4 people died in Benghazi, Congress had hundreds of hours of hearings, found nothing. Now 150,000 in the last 6 months due to Covid. Your president is a suspected pedophile, friends with pedophiles, under numerous investigations. Whole cabinet corrupt, numerous jail sentences and cover ups... but you’re talking about Benghazi.

The Dems should have gotten behind Pete Bootyboy and not mentioned Trump. They've played this all wrong for 4 years.

They should have said not a thing about Trump and spent the 4 years talking about what they would do in the White House starting in 2020.

Mayor Pete would have been far more likely to win ironically than Joe the molester.

TauronB2G supports Susan Rice who blamed Benghazi on a video but worse yet was a key player in the administration who took no action to try to save the lives of our ambassador and Marines. LEAVE NO MAN BEHIND! SEMPER FI!

@pugproud. Trump told you Covid was a hoax. 150k died, he lets Russia put bounty’s on American soldiers... did nothing. You’re talking about something from 10 years ago. Get real.

TauronB26 just because it was 10 years ago does not excuse her actions which were totally politically driven without concern for human lives. If it were your son or daughter serving to protect an embassy and ambassador you would feel much different. Like most Dems if it doesn't touch them personally always goosestep the party line and downgrade the military. Clearly you never served and don't understand that the glue that holds the military together in defense of your freedom and rights is knowing his buddies, his corps and Commander in Chief has his back. SEMPER FI.
