The Corvette E-Ray’s Stealth Mode is an electric-only driving feature that activates the front-mounted electric motor, allowing near-silent operation for short distances. Here’s how it works:
- Electric propulsion: Stealth Mode disengages the 6.2L V8 gas engine and relies solely on the front electric motor.
- Range and speed: Provides 3-4 miles of electric-only driving at speeds up to 45 mph, depending on driving style and conditions.
- Activation: Requires selecting Stealth Mode via the driver mode knob after pressing the brake pedal and starting the vehicle.
- Purpose: Designed for quiet neighborhood exits/entries or low-emissions driving, though practicality is limited due to the short range.
- Limitations: The gas engine automatically reactivates under aggressive acceleration or when battery charge depletes.
Stealth Mode emphasizes the E-Ray’s hybrid versatility, blending Corvette’s performance legacy with electrification.
