    I don't think I will be able to afford a ZR1 or a Zora (if they are produced) I'm debating between the Z06 and the ERay (if they are produced) either would be quick/fast enough for me as I've owned a 1991 ZR-1 and currently own a 2011 CTS-V, so I would definitely appreciate the speed of either C8 mentioned. I have owned two Audis and love all wheel drive. Hmmm...We will see...Thanks for the Vlog!

    @bobolulu7615 3 года назад

    The red switch is a very standard battery disconnect device. If there is a major malfuction of the car, the driver jumps out and turns the key to disconnect the battery. I would say the electric 'hybrid' version is an electric motor in the front with an E-diff, and the battery capacity to run the vehicle on its own will be for about 40 miles. The main idea of the electric motor is the instant torque able to be produced, which will give better acceleration times, not to be relied on as a main means of motive power.

      Hi , I totally agree and imagine what this will cost $$$, I personally don’t think this version will sell. Now maybe the 1000Hp ZORA version twin turbo AWD, that might be a game changer, but a 550 hybrid 👎👎👎. Can’t wait for real info on Z06, was hoping for twin turbo version, but if it’s 650hp with a hi RPM V8, that will be ok, then couple years later the 850hp ZR1 version will be awesome as well. I guess I am of the age the Electric Corvettes don’t interest me at all, however I do realize that it is the future of most autos, trucks, etc. Just hope it’s 20 or so years away and I won’t care. Have a good day.

    • @drewmorg.

      This will need 600hp/600tq to be anything special even as a concept. It will need to average over 30mpg and have a 0-60 time in 2.5 second range. I can't imagine it selling for any cheaper than $75k starting, and that's where the old gen Z06 was at on showroom floors.

    Will extra battery weight require more than 50 additional horsepower via electric motor(s) for getting into the 2 second club?
    The E-Ray may be more to my liking than the ZO6 as I like off the line performance/acceleration vs tracking a car.
    It’s not a Corvette IMO unless there’s a V8 involved. I’m willing to then accept all the extra power I can get by the addition of electric motors.
    Oh yeah, and let’s do something to add a better stock exhaust to that LT2 athan having the majority of people talking about and/or going to aftermarket exhaust systems.
    On a cold start, the C8 engine sounds so promising, but when it goes into an idle at around 600 RPM, it’s sort of a big let down! I don’t need to shake the neighbor’s house, maybe just wake them up!

      With everything I'm hearing, Chevy is building a more compact version of its Bolt motor (200HP, and 266lb/ft @ 0 RPM) to install in the 'frunk' of the ERay, combined with the 490hp LT2. Its gonna be quicker than the beastly flat-plane crank C8 Z06 off the line, slightly slower in top end. Better mileage, significantly more torque, and far more reliable than a high RPM flat-plane- for less $ than the Z06. Keep in mind electric torque peaks at 0RPM and feels insane. A 50hp electric motor has more torque at low RPMs than a powerful gas engine, but this will be well over 100hp! The first hybrid I'm excited about, and I'm not 'into' hybrids! The rumored Top-dog 'Vette (Zora) will combine this motor with the ZR1 engine (a flat plane crank Z06 engine + twin turbos) for a combined output of over 1000hp. So many radical flavors of the C8 Corvette on the horizon, be prepared for change!

      @@jeladsnikpoh1289 Sounds awesome! I totally agree with what you're saying! It's very true that a 50hp motor doesn't sound much but because it's an electric motor it provides a lot of torque. If it's close to 100hp the E-ray it's going epic in my opinion and the C8 to get, especially in Europe with all the emission taxes. But to be honest the sound of the flat plane crank V8 in the Z06 it's just so awesome

    With the current electric drive unit Chevy has 149 Hp and the 6.2 gas engine is 490 hp my math says 639 hp for the E Ray.
