Published on Feb. 10, 2026

Specialty Vehicle Engineering (SVE) has unveiled a 1,564 horsepower version of the Corvette E-Ray, dubbed the Yenko/SC Corvette E-Ray. The tuned hybrid Corvette features a heavily modified 6.2-liter LT2 V8 engine with forged internals and twin Garrett turbochargers to produce the massive power output when running on E85 fuel. SVE will build only 50 units of this limited-edition model.

Why it matters

The Yenko/SC Corvette E-Ray represents the latest in a line of high-powered Corvette variants from specialty tuners. With over 1,500 horsepower, it pushes the boundaries of what's possible with the Corvette platform and highlights the potential of hybrid technology to deliver extreme performance.

The details

SVE's upgrades to the E-Ray's powertrain include a forged steel crankshaft, forged H-beam connecting rods, forged 2618 aluminum pistons, CNC-ported high-flow cylinder heads, an upgraded valvetrain, a custom camshaft, and a custom intercooled intake manifold. The real power comes from the twin Garrett 58mm ceramic ball bearing, water-cooled turbochargers. Fuel delivery is also upgraded on both the high and low pressure sides, and SVE installs a Stage III 8/9 dual-clutch transmission to handle the immense torque.

  • The Yenko/SC Corvette E-Ray package was unveiled on February 10, 2026.
