What Is GM's Ultra Cruise?

The 2027 Corvette Grand Sport X engine combines traditional internal combustion power with advanced electric drive technology. Chevrolet pairs an all-new naturally aspirated 6.7-liter LS6 V8 with a front-axle electric motor to create a high-performance hybrid powertrain. Drivers can expect outstanding output, precise power delivery, and standard electric all-wheel drive from this modern setup. Next-Generation 6.7L LS6 V8 Engine Specifications At the center of the powertrain is the naturally aspirated 6.7L LS6 V8 engine. This Small Block engine features a 100 mm stroke and a 13.0:1 compression ratio, which is the highest ever offered in a production Corvette V8. The gas engine alone generates 535 horsepower and 520 pound-feet of torque. To maintain peak reliability during spirited driving, Chevrolet equipped the LS6 with a new continuously variable oil pump. This system ensures optimal oil pressure across all operating conditions and engine speeds. Power from the V8 engine is routed through an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission for rapid gear shifts. Electric Drive Unit and eAWD System The Grand Sport X enhances rear-wheel V8 power with a front-mounted electric drive unit. A 1.9 kWh lithium-ion battery powers this front motor, supplying an additional 186 horsepower and 145 pound-feet of torque directly to the front axle. Together, the gas engine and electric motor deliver a total combined output of 721 horsepower. This eAWD system provides instant acceleration off the line and enhanced cornering traction. The added front-wheel torque allows the sports car to launch from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.4 seconds. Powertrain Overview Specification Output / Feature Powertrain Type 6.7L LS6 V8 with Front Electric Drive Unit Gas Engine Output 535 hp / 520 lb-ft torque Electric Motor Output 186 hp / 145 lb-ft torque Total Combined Output 721 hp / 665 lb-ft torque Transmission 8-speed dual-clutch automatic 0–60 mph Acceleration 2.4 seconds* *0–60 mph acceleration time based on initial vehicle movement on a closed course with available equipment. Real-World Utility and Performance Advantages The hybrid powertrain setup offers meaningful advantages for both track enthusiasts and everyday drivers. Electric assist provides immediate torque low in the rev range, filling in power gaps before the V8 reaches peak RPM. The eAWD system also increases driving confidence in varying road conditions. Drivers get the visceral sound and feel of a classic naturally aspirated V8 paired with the control and response of modern electric propulsion.
