Default E-Ray @ The Burg TESTING

This question may have been addressed before but I'll ask it........Why does the Test Corvette show Standard Exhaust Tips when its suppose to fully Electric????? Could it be a Hyrid uncover ?

Just had to ask..........Maybe some GM Engineers have an answer>

GM has confirmed no details about an "E-Ray," but all signs point to a Z06 body, with the Stingray LT2 engine, and an electric motor up front.

Thanks for all the replies............A hydbird would be "middle of the Road" and probably well accepted. But in my opinion a total electric muscle car thumbs down. very similar to a "Blue Oval" electric truck towing a 6K Travel Trailer and getting only 78 miles out a charge! Battery technology still as a fur peice to go.
It would be embarrssing to do a "Burn Out" and in the middle of it the Electric Muscle Car (EMC) goes dead and everyone laughs as a Fossile fuel rollback comes loads it up to carry it and the owner home .
Just my opinion, I still like the sound of a carburator moan, Roar of a BB, and the smell of burning rubber and as well a needle on the "Redline"

Thanks
Aclassicnut FOREVER!
