The fact that they added both a hybrid AND an AWD system and lost 1 cubic foot of cargo space is incredible.

[rahoz]

This is the type of hybrid i think people enjoy, it doesn't take away the soul of the car but adds to it. It's makes for a better daily driver than a normal corvette for someone who may have one car.

I love the way Chevy has gone about the C8 Corvette lineup. Each model speaks to a different demographic while being able to still tie in with eachother nicely. This E-Ray is very cool!

[melvn_official]

I find the E-Ray and the whole concept of performance hybrid quite interesting. Sure, my preference goes to the Z06 and its rawness and all-out capability but it’s nice to see GM giving Corvette buyers a variety of flavors.

[santiagoortiz]

TBH, I love that GM did this. I'm not the kinda person who's so much for hybrids and EVs, but, being a C8 and pairing a hybrid motor on it is pretty cool to see. The only hybrid I really like.

[supersimon]

I have to give credit to GM for doing a hybrid sports car this way, rather than giving it an oversized battery pack and downscaling it to a V6 and trying to sell it on "It has just as much power as the V8 pls buy". It's refreshing to see more cars go down the same route that the McLaren P1 did with its hybrid system.

Also, the shiny rims really just fit Corvettes well imo. It feels like a throwback to earlier models, even though the C7 had them too.

I love the idea of performance hybrids.
You still get the same maniac engine, but then you also get electric systems that take some of the load off and, in return, you get even more performance.
Hybrids are not the enemy, they're just misunderstood and often misused.

Making a hybrid that has the same fuel economy as the regular version has to be the most American thing ever

[Bob-of-Zoid]

Jay Lenno covered this one too a few days ago, and he was so thrilled by it's performance, he floored it a couple of times drowning out the head engineer for the car while he was talking. I call that letting the car talk for itself.

[ScholeyProductions]

The sound of the electric motor and V8 together are so cool! Such a spaceship for the road!

[xKingx]

I love how electric has been making a lot of vehicles have a awd option.

[Zachman]

I love how the E-Ray wheels look in light finishes. I wish more sporty cars would offer sexy wheel designs in light finishes instead of just being lazy with black all the time

[BBROPHOTO]

This car sounds like a car you'd have in something like the Bladerunner universe. That match of old combustion with futuristic electric whine. It's actually so cool.

[bradcollins]

The quagmire “alrightttt” is a new quirk and feature of doug’s videos

[scottipippen]

The color and rims combination is just perfect. Stunning car..well done, Chevy!!

[DPCcars]

Absolutely agree with all of you! This hybrid Corvette is the perfect blend of innovation without compromising its heritage. It's like blending the past and future seamlessly.

[paulie-Gualtieri.]

Doug the kind of guy to read all the terms and conditions before playing a game

[mattmanley]

This thing is so cool I’m glad to see it being reviewed so highly !!

I hope to see one on the roads soon!! What a time we are living in!

AWD hybrid vette with a V8 😮❤

[marcsupra]

Always been a Corvette fan and I’m liking the E-Ray, mainly because it allows you to have a loud exhaust but also be able to leave and return to your house at unsociable hours in silence and keep the neighbours happy.

Also, after having a C8, I thought I’d find the climate control awkward, but after a couple of days use, it’s easy and nice to use.

12:30 easlily the coolest thing ive seen this week. Every car with a screen should have all the gauges
