Powertrain
The 2025 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray carries over the same hybrid powertrain and transmission from the 2024 model year.
Engine | Fuel | Battery | Aspiration | Transmission | Drivetrain | Horsepower @ RPM | Torque @ RPM | Electric Power | Torque | Axle Ratio |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
6.2L LT2 V8 (rear) + electric (front) | Gasoline | Hybrid + Atmospheric | 8-Speed Dual-Clutch Auto (M1H) | AWD | 655 / 488.4 | 595 / TBD | 5.17 |
As a reminder, the E-Ray mates the atmospheric LT2 engine sending power to the rear axle with the HP1 electrified propulsion system powering the front axle. Individual outputs for LT1 and HP1 are as follows:
- LT2: 495 hp / 369.1 kW @ 6450 rpm and 470 lb-ft / 637.2 Nm @ 5150 rpm of torque
