EV Channels Review
The reviewer directly addresses the common question of whether to trade a Corvette Z06 for the new 2024 E-Ray. While acknowledging the E-Ray's impressive acceleration (0-60 in 2.5 seconds) and its status as the quickest and first AWD electrified Corvette, the reviewer ultimately decides to keep their Z06. The E-Ray is praised for its all-year-round drivability, immediate torque from the electric motor, and a more refined, less frantic daily driving experience compared to the track-focused Z06. However, the Z06's naturally aspirated V8, its raw, emotional, and absurdly high-revving nature (up to 8600 RPM), and its distinct exhaust note are highlighted as the key differentiators that resonate more with the reviewer's preference for a pure, emotional supercar experience. The interior is noted as being virtually identical between the two, with minor animation updates for the E-Ray. Pricing is discussed, with both starting in the low $100k range, but the Z06 having a higher potential ceiling with options.
