“It’s like a Prius,” I joke to my friend as I click the button on the remote, and the 2026 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray roars to life with a V8 growl. “Yeah, exactly the same,” he smirks. The E-Ray introduced several firsts to the Corvette lineup when it was revealed in early 2023. It was the first hybrid Corvette and the first to feature all-wheel-drive. It was also the quickest of the C8 generation released up to that point, so you’d think diehard enthusiasts would be quick to embrace it, right? You’d be wrong.
