The E-Ray will be available in removeable roof coupe and hardtop convertible models with a 6.2L LT2 Small Block V-8, an is equipped as an electric all wheel drive.
“Corvette has been a halo for Chevrolet since 1953,” said Scott Bell, vice president of Chevrolet. “E-Ray’s unprecedented blend of confidence, luxury performance, sophistication and style provides a new reason for more people to experience Corvette.”
The E-Ray is the quickest production Corvette in history, clocking a 2.5-second 0-60 mph time before breezing through the quarter-mile in 10.5 seconds. (Read more about the specs here)
