2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray revealed with hybrid, AWD tech – 1st time in model’s history; 6.2L V8, 655 hp
In 2023, the Corvette is celebrating its 70th anniversary, and to celebrate the milestone, Chevrolet has unveiled an electrified variant called the E-Ray. This is a revolution for the Corvette, which has never been offered with any form of electrification in the past. If that wasn’t enough, the E-Ray is also the first Corvette to get all-wheel drive, and here’s how the whole system works.
The electrification aspect of the powertrain comes in the form of a front-mounted electric motor that is rated at 160 hp and 165 Nm. This, along with a 1.9-kWh lithium-ion battery, completes the electric all-wheel drive system, resulting in a total system output of 655 hp and 807 Nm. The smaller battery means electric-only driving is limited to a range of around 8 km , but the aim here is performance and not efficiency. Users can also engage Stealth Mode, which forces the car to run on electricity at speeds of up to 72 km/h so the neighbours aren’t woken up by V8 noises early in the morning as you leave home. Very thoughtful.
Other driving-related items include Performance Traction Management modes for the eAWD system, Brembo carbon ceramic brakes, Magnetic Ride Control 4.0 with three settings, a lightweight 12-volt lithium-ion battery for the V8’s start/stop functionality, plus staggered 20- and 21-inch wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport tyres . It should be noted the rear tyres have an immense 345/25 profile, while the fronts are 275/30.
