E-Ray Only
Hybrid Battery Charging (Charge+)
The Charge+ feature is used to quickly
charge the high voltage battery to near
maximum State of Charge (SOC). This
feature is useful to prepare for maximum
effort at a racetrack or Stealth mode use. By
activating the Charge+ feature, it rapidly
increases the hybrid battery SOC status into the blue 100% full zone. See
Power Indicator
Gauge 087. When the Charge+ feature is
enabled, the battery SOC may still deplete
during aggressive driving.
The Charge+ feature can be used in
conjunction with any drive mode except
Stealth or Shuttle mode.
On a racetrack, using the Charge+ feature
optimizes the high voltage battery discharge
rate for sustaining continuous lapping or to
set your fastest lap. When the Charge+
feature is enabled, a strategic discharge rate
is activated, which is the best for continuous
lapping on the racetrack. When the Charge+
feature is off, a maximum discharge rate
occurs, which is best for setting the fastest
lap time. For additional details on vehicle
track preparation, see Chevrolet.com >
Corvette Experience > Guides > Track Prep
Guide.
Do not leave the Charge+ feature on longer
than needed since extra fuel may be
consumed due to aggressive charging.
Charge+ draws on engine power to help
recharge the battery quickly, rather than
charging efficiently through brake or coast
regen. When the high voltage battery is full,
no additional regen energy of any type can
be captured. When the Charge+ feature is turned off, the
high voltage propulsion system efficiently
uses battery energy to improve fuel
economy or performance. This allows room
in the high voltage battery for the next
regen charging opportunity. The high
voltage battery automatically seeks its
nominal SOC in the white zone of the
Hybrid Battery Gauge, between 50-80%. The
SOC status is displayed in the HYBRID
BATTERY info tile, and is shown in the blue
Hybrid Battery state. See
“Info Tiles”in
Instrument Cluster 081.
The Charge+ feature is only effective when
the car is being driven. Optimal high voltage
battery charging occurs when the vehicle
speed exceeds 56 km/h (35 mph).

200 Driving and Operating
Turning On or Off Charge+
Press the Charge+ button on the drive side
of the center console. When the Charge+
feature is active, the hybrid battery charging
light displays on the DIC. SeeHybrid Battery
Charging Light (Charge+) 087. Also, a small
pop-up window will also appear showing the
exact SOC and electric power input/output.
The Hybrid Battery Gauge shows the
increasing SOC filling into the blue zone. See
Power Indicator Gauge 087.
EV Drive Mode Attributes
Stealth Mode : Use to silently exit your
residence before the engine turns on for
maximum performance capability. The
typical range in Stealth mode is about three to four miles depending on the starting SOC,
vehicle speed, and other driving conditions.
The Stealth Drive Mode Capability Gauge on
the instrument cluster informs the driver of
when the engine will start, see
Stealth Drive
Mode Capability Gauge 086.
Stealth mode automatically deactivates if
the following occurs:
.The vehicle speed exceeds 72 km/h
(45 mph).
.The outside temperature is lower than
10°C (50°F).
.The high voltage battery SOC is lower
than 21%.
.Quickly depressing the accelerator pedal.
.Depressing the accelerator pedal beyond
one-third of the way.
.Turning on the climate controls. See Dual
Automatic Climate Control System 0150.
If one of the conditions occur, an indicator
on the Driver Information Center (DIC)
displays explaining Stealth mode was
automatically deactivated.
When Stealth mode is deactivated, the
vehicle will transition into Tour mode. Stealth mode can only be activated one
time per ON/OFF cycle. Once the engine
auto-starts while in Stealth mode, the only
way to re-enter Stealth mode is to put the
vehicle in P (Park), turn the vehicle off and
repeat the steps above in the
“E-Ray–EV
Drive Mode Activation” section.
Once the engine starts, the propulsion
system transitions from EV propulsion to
engine power. A message will display on the
EV selection menu to indicate how long the
engine power transition will take. This
transition may take two to four seconds
depending on the engine temperature.
The electric power indicator gauge will
indicate a transition from EV propulsion to
engine propulsion. The instrument cluster
will show two or three phases of the
transition (red, yellow, green) and then
display the engine tachometer when the
transition is complete.
If Stealth Mode was used in the beginning
of a drive cycle, the Stop/Start System will
be disabled. The vehicle must be turned off
and restarted normally to enable the Stop/
Start System. See Stop/Start System 0180.

Driving and Operating 201
{Warning
When exiting Stealth mode, allow
sufficient time for the vehicle to
automatically start the engine and
develop full system propulsion power
before merging into traffic. Attempting to
merge into traffic before the engine has
reached full power could cause a crash
resulting in vehicle damage, personal
injury, or death. It is best to exit Stealth
mode first and allow the engine to reach
full capacity before engaging in traffic.
Shuttle Mode : Use to propel the vehicle
using only electric power. Shuttle mode is
not intended for public roads. The typical
range in Shuttle mode is about four to
five miles depending on the starting SOC,
vehicle speed, terrain, and other driving
conditions. While the vehicle is in Shuttle
mode, the instrument cluster only displays
the vehicle speed, battery gauge, and a
electric power indicator gauge. The infotainment screen will only show the
date and time. If equipped, the HUD system
will not be functional.
Shuttle mode automatically deactivates if
the following occurs:
.The vehicle speed exceeds 24 km/h
(15 mph).
.The outside temperature is lower than
–
10°C (14°F).
.The high voltage battery SOC is 0%.
To deactivate Shuttle mode, put the vehicle
in P (Park) and turn off the vehicle. Then,
start the vehicle normally.
Shuttle mode will automatically start to
reduce propulsion power as the SOC reaches
0%. The message Start Engine to Charge
Battery will display on the instrument
cluster when the SOC reaches 5%.
If the engine is not started, propulsion
power reduces automatically and the vehicle
comes to a stop. The only way to charge your battery is to
start and run the vehicle from Normal mode.
See
“Normal Mode” later on in this section.
Do not store the hybrid battery with a low
SOC for an extended period of time. It is
best to store the battery in the white
eAWD zone.
Normal Mode : Use to have a normal
engine start when going through the EV
drive mode selection process.
Starting and running the vehicle from
Normal mode allows the engine and front
electric motor to regenerate power to
charge the hybrid battery.

cluster, seeInstrument Cluster 081 >
Options > Display themes.
Throttle Progression
Adjusts throttle sensitivity by selecting how
quickly or slowly the throttle reacts to
input.
Throttle Progression is a preset of
Powertrain and cannot be modified or
changed independently.
Transmission Shift Operation
Basic:
.Transmission upshifts and downshifts are
selected based on vehicle speed and
accelerator position to optimize comfort
and fuel economy during mild driving
conditions.
Driver Influenced Gear Selection:
.Aggressive driving will influence both the
upshift and downshift points in all modes.
When engaged, the Performance
Transmission Active light displays. See
Performance Transmission Active 093.
When Performance Transmission is
activated from a standstill, by selecting PTM Race 1 or Race 2, the transmission
shift map is in the most aggressive state
where upshifts are only achieved at high
revolutions per minute (rpm), downshifts
happen early, and the lowest gear is
selected for cornering. Transmission
behavior will transition to a level
appropriate to the current driving
behavior after a short period of time.
If PTM Race 1 or Race 2 are not selected,
the Performance Transmission Active
behavior still activates automatically after
a sustained period of performance driving
is detected. See
“Performance Traction
Management (PTM)” later on in this
section.
.Criteria which have influence are: driving
mode, accelerator, brakes, lateral, and
longitudinal loading.
.Changes in gear selection behavior due to
aggressive driving can include:
‐ Downshifting early with higher rpm’s
during aggressive braking (i.e. entering
a corner)
‐ Altering upshifts while experiencing
lateral acceleration
‐ Not upshifting when the accelerator is
released to avoid unnecessary shifts if
the accelerator is re-applied ‐
Recognizing sporty driving and
anticipating upcoming corners with the
appropriate gear selection entering and
exiting
.Driver Modes
‐Driver influenced changes are effective
in all driving modes, however the
aggressiveness of the transmission
response will increase between Tour,
Sport, and Track modes respectively.
Active Fuel Management (Engine Cylinder
Shuts Off)
If equipped with Active Fuel Management
(AFM), the engine uses driver demand to
deactivate cylinders to improve fuel
performance. When accelerating, V8 mode is
prevalent. For lighter throttle applications,
the system may disable cylinders to run in
4-cylinder mode to save fuel.
Active Fuel Management is a preset of
Powertrain and cannot be modified or
changed independently.

Front Lift System
A two-position lift actuator (one per damper)
with 35 mm (1.5 in) of stroke will
hydraulically raise the front of the vehicle to
provide approximately 50 mm (2 in) of
increased clearance in approximately
three seconds (height and time will vary by
vehicle). The Front Lift System will allow
you to lift the front of the vehicle to enter a
driveway, driving over curbs, speed bumps
or onto ramps or a trailer.
To use the Front Lift System, press the
button on the center console to raise or
lower the vehicle. This feature can be
operated at speeds up to 38 km/h (24 mph)
when the engine is running. The system
functions based on the vehicle’s state or
operating mode:
.The system will not raise up when the
doors or underhood storage compartment
is open.
.The system can be raised or lowered by
the pushbutton, when the vehicle is in
RUN or in accessory mode.
.If the vehicle is in the raised position and
is driven at speeds above 38 km/h
(24 mph), it will automatically lower.
.If the vehicle is turned off, it will
automatically lower.
.If a vehicle door is opened during
lowering, the movement will pause for
15 seconds then continue to lower, but at
a slower rate.
If equipped, the front height can be raised
automatically using GPS navigation in the
vehicle. The vehicle will automatically lift in
up to 1,000 programmable locations. Once
the button is pushed, a notification will
appear on the Driver Information Center
(DIC) and prompt the driver if they would
like to “Remember” the location. The driver
can select this function through the steering
wheel controls, see Steering Wheel Controls
0 119.
The driver can also delete stored locations
for the automatic lift.
If the vehicle is raised automatically using
GPS, it will automatically lower once the
vehicle is located about 60 meters (197 feet)
from the programmed location. To disable
this function, turn off the GPS location via
the vehicle Customization Settings. The Front
Lift System will now only operate using the
pushbutton command, and the “Auto Lift
Location Remembered” confirmation
message will not display.

Performance Driving
If equipped, Competitive Driving mode,
Performance Traction Management (PTM),
and Launch Control are systems designed to
allow increased performance while
accelerating and/or cornering. This is
accomplished by regulating and optimizing
the engine, brakes, and suspension performance. These modes are for use at a
closed course race track and are not
intended for use on public roads. They will
not compensate for driver inexperience or
lack of familiarity with a race track.
Drivers who prefer to allow the system to
have more control of the engine, brakes,
and suspension are advised to turn on the
normal traction control and StabiliTrak/
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) systems on.
If equipped with E-Ray, there is a
Performance app on the infotainment screen
that shows the vehicle electric and engine
power/torque. See
“E-Ray Performance App”
later in this section for more information.
E-Ray Performance App
If equipped with E-Ray, to access the
Performance App, select the performance
app icon on the infotainment screen. The
landing screen of the Performance app is the
gauges page.
Gauges
The Gauges page shows the Electric
Power/Torque on the left gauge and the
engine power/torque on the right gauge.
Units of power or torque can be chosen at
the bottom of the page. The center of the
page is a wireframe view of the vehicle that
illuminates the front and/or rear axle as
each propulsion system is being used. The
brighter the wireframe display the more
power/torque is being provided.

Dyno
While Driving
The Dyno page shows both electric and
engine power/torque in numeric and script
format. This shows the usage over time in
intervals of 15 or 30 seconds, or one or
two minutes. This is the same data as
shown on the gauges page but in a different
viewing format.
While in P (Park) When the car is shifted into P (Park), the
viewing cursor appears to allow the driver
to analyze the data in the viewing time
increment.
The Gauges and Dyno pages include the
Hybrid battery gauge indicating how much
battery charge is present.
Electric power/torque can be either positive
or negative. When electric power is being
provided the gauge shows positive values
and lights up orange. When electric power is
being stored, the gauge shows negative
values and lights up green.
Engine power is only positive and lights up
white.
Data
There are two available screens for the Data
page. Swipe the screen to the left to access
the second screen. See
Using the System
0 120.
The default screen displays the following
facts about the vehicle hybrid performance
and vehicle efficiency saved since the last
reset:
.Charge Gained is the accumulation of
brake and coast regen in units of energy.
.Charge Used is how much energy has
been used to enhance performance or
efficiency.
.Fuel Saved is the charge gained through
regen energy and converted to liters of
fuel saved.
The second screen displays the hybrid vitals,
such as the electric motor power and RPMs,
and hybrid battery and electric motor
temperature.

Driving and Operating 213
Resuming a Set Speed
If cruise control is engaged at a set speed
and then the brakes are applied or
*is
pressed, cruise control is disengaged without
erasing the set speed from memory.
Once the vehicle reaches a speed of
40 km/h (25 mph) or more, briefly press the
thumbwheel up to +RES and release it to
engage cruise control at the previous set
speed.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise Control
If cruise control is already engaged:
.Accelerate to the desired cruise speed
using the accelerator pedal. When the
desired higher cruise speed is reached,
briefly press the thumbwheel down to
SET– and release it, and then remove
your foot from the accelerator pedal. The
vehicle will now cruise at the higher set
speed.
.Press and hold the thumbwheel up to
+RES until the desired speed is reached,
then release it.
.To increase the vehicle speed in small
increments, briefly press the thumbwheel
up to +RES and release it. For each press,
the vehicle speed increases by about
1 km/h (1 mph). The speedometer reading can be displayed
in either English or metric units. See
Settings
0 142. The increment value used depends on
the units displayed.
Reducing Speed While Using Cruise Control
If cruise control is already engaged:
.Press and hold the thumbwheel down to
SET– until the desired lower speed is
reached, then release it.
.To decrease the vehicle speed in small
increments, briefly press the thumbwheel
down to SET– and release it. For each
press, the vehicle speed decreases by
about 1 km/h (1 mph).
Passing Another Vehicle While Using Cruise
Control
To pass another vehicle while cruise control
is engaged, use the accelerator pedal to
increase the vehicle speed. When you
remove your foot from the accelerator
pedal, the vehicle will slow down to the
previously set speed. While pressing the
accelerator pedal or shortly following the
release to override cruise control, briefly
pressing and releasing the thumbwheel
down to SET– will result in the cruise speed
being set to the current vehicle speed. Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well cruise control works on a hill
depends on the vehicle speed, load, and the
steepness of the hill. When going up a steep
hill, you may need to apply the accelerator
pedal to maintain the cruise speed. When
going downhill, you may need to brake or
shift to a lower gear to keep the vehicle
speed down. If the brake pedal is applied,
cruise control will disengage.
Cruise Control in Manual Paddle Shift Gear
Selection
When the vehicle is in M (Manual Mode)
and the manual paddle shift controls are not
being used, cruise control operates in the
same manner as D (Drive).
When the vehicle is in M (Manual Mode)
and the manual paddle shift controls are
being used, cruise control operates as
follows:
.If cruise control is engaged and a gear is
selected with the manual paddle shift
controls, the vehicle speed is maintained
in the driver selected gear and will not
automatically upshift or downshift the
transmission while the driver gear
selection is active.
