So, E-Ray huh? This electric thing or what?
Not quite. The E-Ray is like a Corvette with a secret weapon - an electric motor for an extra kick. It's all about more power, not plugging in.
How much more power are we talking?
Enough to make your head spin. The E-Ray cranks out a combined 655 horsepower, which is darn close to the mighty Z06. Plus, it launches from 0-60 mph in a mind-bending 2.5 seconds.
Is it faster than a Z06 then?
Technically, yes! The E-Ray scoots a smidge quicker. But the Z06 might feel more old-school muscle in the corners.
Wait, AWD in a Corvette? What's the deal?
The electric motor gives the E-Ray all-wheel drive, which means it grips the road like crazy. Perfect for those twisty mountain roads or, you know, showing off in the rain.
Does it sound like a normal Corvette?
It's still got that iconic V8 rumble, but the electric motor adds a subtle whir. Think of it as the soundtrack to the future of speed.
Can I ditch gas stations altogether?
Nope. The electric motor is there for bursts of power, not mileage marathons. You'll still need to hit the pump, but the E-Ray does get a decent estimated combined fuel economy of 19 mpg.
Is this the new "normal" Corvette?
Not exactly. The E-Ray is a special edition, offering a taste of electric muscle. The base Stingray and the high-horsepower Z06 are still around for those who prefer pure gas-powered thrills.
