The all new Corvette E-Ray is designed as a very fast year round Corvette Grand Tourer, but that doesn't mean it's not quick. With 655 HP combined and all-wheel-drive, it's actually the quickest accelerating Corvette ever. It can be driven in all seasons and all conditions. But is that what people want? is it the best Corvett ever or just middle of the road?

perfect setup for a hybrid sports car. This is use on racing car prototypes but they use even a smaller batteries/energy storage that are good for like 10 seconds only. For that setup you have the option to engage the motor only when you want ar a push of a button usually on straight lines. That makes driving the car unique and challenging because you need to find the best strategy for the win . but with a bigger battery that is not necessary, it keeps things a bit easier

I wonder how well optimized the regen will be in winter driving conditions. In very low traction winter conditions, relying on the front axle to charge the batteries could be challenging. Either excess drag could be unwanted, or difficult to keep the batteries fully charged. Cool car though.

If they do end up adding the electric motor to the Z06 to make the ZR1, that will be the best of both worlds. The extra weight and complexity might not make it an ideal track car, but I think the E-Ray has a lot of real world advantages, like AWD for consistent launches and winter driving for those of us who live in the Northeast. It really makes electric assist pretty seamless, since you do not have to plug it in, which can be a big advantage if you don't have your own garage. Yes, I'm sure the electric assist will run out after a while, and the extra weight becomes a disadvantage, but how long can you really go flat out on a highway in the U.S. in a high performance sports car? Real world, it seems pretty impressive for its mission.

It is more all purpose because it has the electric motor assist that can make it quieter and provide smoother, more refined acceleration. Also it will probably get slightly better gas mileage, especially if used up and down mountain roads. It is more all weather than other Corvettes simply because it has all wheel drive, instead of RWD.

There’s been a real fascination with drag racing supercars. 0-60, 1/8 mile 1/4, mile etc. Those times mean little to a real sports car aficionado. It’s the road manners that count. Can you run “9 mile” at speed? How about Angeles Forest and the Crest. A run at Spring Mountain Raceway. The E-Ray is quick, but the ZO6 is faster and more nimble. A beast.

"You can even chirp the front tires" on acceleration. What are the rear tires doing? Chirping, or spinning? Less concern with pushing the front end sounds nice.

The added weigh is bad, but they tend to put that weight down low and in the center of the car so I am sure it doesn't feel as bad as the numbers might suggest. The electric motor does compliment the gas engine nicely, by filling in the low end torque, making it quieter and more refined when used in daily use, and improves the gas mileage. If done well, I too think a hybrid system can bring a lot to the table, even for sports cars.

It's a Corvette. The same guys are going to buy it that buy all the other Corvettes. I see those Corvette guys regularly here in Southwest Florida. They are about 70 years old, give or take 5 years. They are boisterous. They probably were originally from New York or maybe Chicago. And they love to tell you about the time they raced the other car either from the light or on the interstate. They wouldn't even know what a track or autocross course looked like so if this one gets them to 85 or 100mph a little faster before they have to let off the throttle, then this is the one they want. You can usually spot these guys even if they aren't anywhere near their Corvette.

But if few (if any) people take their $70,000 Vette out in bad weather, what makes anyone think they are going to take their $100,000 Vette out in bad weather??? Don’t get me wrong: I like the car.
