First-ever electrified Corvette keeps 6.2-litre V8 and doesn't need plugging in - hallelujah ⚡️
Don’t worry, Corvette fans. E-Ray doesn’t mean electric, it means electrified. This new, all-wheel-drive C8 Corvette is powered by both the 6.2-litre small block V8 and an electric motor. The soundtrack that for 70 years has come to characterise America’s most famous sports car isn’t going anywhere just yet - it’s merely getting some assistance.
The E-Ray’s electric motor cannot be plugged in, and the press release makes no mention of a pure electric range; this is a hybrid much more in the performance-focused AMG mould rather than a dedicated PHEV performance vehicle. The battery is replenished through the kinetic energy of the car as well as regenerative braking, with a pure electric ‘Stealth’ driving mode ensuring silent progress - in a Corvette! - up to 45mph and while there’s juice in the batteries.
