The Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray represents a major milestone in American performance — the first all-wheel-drive and hybrid Corvette ever made. At the heart of the E-Ray is a 6.2-liter LT2 V8 engine paired with an electric motor that drives the front wheels.

Together, they produce 655 horsepower and 595 lb-ft of torque, launching the car from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.4 seconds and through the quarter-mile in 10.6. Top speed? 183 mph. It’s the first-ever all-wheel-drive Corvette, offering incredible grip and acceleration that rivals supercars twice its price.

For 2026, Chevrolet introduces Roswell Green — a pearlescent color that instantly turns heads. The design remains sleek and aggressive, borrowing the wider body from the Z06 while adding functional aero, carbon-flash details, and available carbon-fiber wheels. Standard carbon-ceramic brakes ensure fade-free stopping, while Magnetic Ride Control keeps the ride composed whether you’re cruising or carving corners.

Inside, the E-Ray gets a major tech upgrade. The outdated button-heavy center bridge is gone, replaced by a clean dashboard layout and a massive 14-inch infotainment screen with Google integration. There’s also a new 12.3-inch digital cluster, customizable driving modes, and a performance data recorder for track enthusiasts. The fit and finish—carbon fiber trim, Alcantara, and contrast stitching—rival European exotics.

With a starting price around $155,000 for the 3LZ convertible trim, the E-Ray significantly undercuts rivals from Ferrari, McLaren, and Porsche while offering comparable performance. It’s also built in America, carrying on the Corvette’s 70-year legacy of delivering attainable supercar thrills.
