I’ve spent nearly the last two years testing many of the best electric cars, which, interestingly enough, includes hybrids that rely on a combination of gas and electric power. Yet, nothing prepared me for what I was about to experience with the Chevrolet Corvette.
That’s because this sports car actually runs on hybrid power. Backed by a 6.2L LT2 V8 engine and paired with a 1.9 kWh lithium-ion battery, it finally brings electrification to the Corvette for the first time. Don’t assume it’s underpowered either because it's a hybrid, it musters a combined 655 horsepower that delivers a 0 to 60 mph time of just 2.5 seconds.
