2020 Chevrolet Corvette C8

The First Electrified 2024 Chevy Corvette E-Ray Just Sold for Over $1 Million

This is the second C8 Corvette NASCAR team owner Rick Hendrick has bought at auction for charity.

Auctioning off the first production model of a new and special car for charity is pretty much standard fare these days, and the 2024 Chevy Corvette E-Ray – VIN 001 – is no different. The automaker just sold off the first E-Ray at Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach for $1.1 million. GM isn’t keeping any of that money, though. It’s all going to a cause: the education nonprofit DonorsChoose.

Chevrolet tells us that the first electrified Corvette E-Ray was bought by none other than Rick Hendrick, the chairman and CEO of Hendrick Automotive Group and the owner of 14-time NASCAR Cup Series champions Hendrick Motorsport. According to the Detroit Free Press, this E-Ray will be the 122nd vehicle in the 73-year-old’s collection. Good for him.
