Chevy's groundbreaking 2025 Corvette E-Ray adds electric torque to the already impressive performance of the C8 Corvette. The hybrid supercar is ready to leave your local Chevy dealership and tear up Newark streets. Hybrid Performance The heart of the Corvette E-Ray is a race-ready hybrid system that incorporates a 6.2L LT2 V8 and a single electric motor. The engine cranks out 495 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque, while the motor produces 160 horsepower and 125 lb-ft of torque. This brings the hybrid system's net output up to a tire-shredding 655 horsepower and 595 lb-ft of torque. A sporty 8-speed dual-clutch transmission manages the system's power delivery, providing lightning-fast, engaging shifts. Tremendous horsepower and electric low-end torque make the E-Ray universally feared on the racetrack. Channeling all of its power for an explosive start, the hybrid supercar sprints to 60 mph in 2.5 seconds and crosses the quarter-mile mark in 10.5 seconds. more Electric All-Wheel Drive The V8 engine powers the E-Ray's rear wheels, while the electric motor drives the front wheels. This forms an electric all-wheel drive (eAWD) system that gives the vehicle unparalleled traction in all road and track conditions. Additionally, the eAWD system is capable of dynamically adjusting power delivery to enhance stability and help the supercar corner. Exceptional Maneuverability In addition to the nimble eAWD system, the E-Ray comes with an array of technologies and design features that improve its maneuverability. The mighty V8 engine sits directly behind the driver instead of under the hood, forming a mid-engine layout with nearly 50-50 weight distribution. Standard performance suspension with Magnetic Selective Ride Control provides adaptive damping, which enhances traction across all surfaces. It also contains an innovative magnetorheological fluid that becomes rigid in an instant to reduce body roll. All-Electric Mode The E-Ray features an all-electric mode, Stealth Mode, that lets you drive 3-4 miles in complete silence. Stealth Mode uses energy from the 1.9 kWh lithium-ion battery to power the electric motor and disengages once the battery is fully discharged. The supercar is capable of reaching 45 mph in Stealth Mode. Driver-Focused Cockpit The E-Ray's cockpit is built around the driver. Stepping inside the supercar, you will be greeted by 8-way power-adjustable GT1 bucket seats that provide exceptional comfort for grand touring. The 8-inch center touchscreen, which features the E-Ray Performance App, is positioned on the dashboard at an angle facing the driver. To provide an unobstructed view of the digital gauge cluster, the steering wheel sports a race-inspired flat top design. Does the Corvette E-Ray sound like your dream car?
