Corvette E-Ray Makes Electrified UK Debut
The 2025 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray was officially revealed in the UK at the Festival of Speed. It’s the first electrified, allwheel-drive Corvette, and it looks pretty cool!
This new Corvette has been designed to give everyday usability without compromising on raw performance. Offered as
both a coupe and a convertible, the E-Ray is priced from £153,440 (coupe) and £159,230 (convertible). Right-hand drive
models are now available to order, with deliveries starting this September.
Hybrid Power
The all-new Corvette E-Ray has a 6.2-litre V8, delivering 482hp to the rear axle. It’s paired with a front-mounted electric
motor producing 161hp, powered by a 1.9kWh battery between the seats. Together, they produce a combined 643hp. This
is enough to launch the E-Ray from 0 to 62mph in just 2.9 seconds, making it the quickest production Corvette ever to be
available in the UK.
This set-up also means that the E-Ray doesn’t need to be plugged in. Instead, the battery charges itself through
regenerative braking, coasting, and daily driving.
You can read more details about the Corvette E-Ray on the Bridge Classic Cars website.
