Both cars feature similar battery capacities and single electric motors but differ in their execution. The Corvette uses a simpler, cost-effective system with high-current pouch cells, while the Porsche employs a more complex setup with cylindrical cells and an F1-style electric turbocharger. These differences highlight each automaker's unique engineering priorities and the evolving landscape of performance hybrids.
