The 2024 E-Ray marks the first time a General Motors hybrid electric product has used Carbon Revolution’s class-leading carbon fiber wheels.

Key Points: 
  • The 2024 E-Ray marks the first time a General Motors hybrid electric product has used Carbon Revolution’s class-leading carbon fiber wheels.
  • “The General Motors Corvette Z06 and ZR1 have been some of Carbon Revolution’s most successful high-volume programs.
  • We expect that given the recent performance awards for the E-Ray, this program will continue the trend of success,” said Jake Dingle, CEO of Carbon Revolution.
  • The E-Ray’s optional five-spoke carbon fiber wheels, made by Carbon Revolution, cut 41 pounds from the Corvette’s unsprung, rotational curb weight compared with the forged aluminum option.
