In 2022, a document leak hinted at NASCAR's electrifying plans for the 2023 Busch Light Clash. The leak featured futuristic illustrations of a Ford Mustang Mach-E, a 2024 Chevy Blazer SS, and a Toyota bZ4X, all as potential Cup cars. "These machines, a perfect blend of power and innovation, highlight NASCAR’s Gen Seven cars’ modular design," the document read.
The Mysterious Prototype
A recently leaked image of a sleek, crossover-shaped EV has stirred up the racing community. It bears a striking resemblance to the anticipated Blazer SS EV. However, insiders suggest this could be a generic, unbranded prototype. "This illustration mirrors the concepts NASCAR has been pondering over," an insider revealed.
The Future of NASCAR
NASCAR insiders suggest that this innovative car builds on the Next Gen chassis that debuted in 2022, with modifications to accommodate electric powertrain components. "This aligns with the predictions that NASCAR’s EV racers, since 2022, would adopt this body style," they shared. With Chevrolet, Ford, and Toyota hinting at future races featuring EVs, the electric future of NASCAR is not just a possibility; it's a thrilling reality waiting to unfold.
