Lotus presents MY25 line-up for the Eletre and Emeya

As the new model year is ready to hit the road, Lotus has revised the product range for its two electric models Eletre and Emeya. They also have new model designations ‘600’ and ‘900’, inspired by the respective performance variants. At the same time, Lotus introduced two new equipment lines - the GT and GT SE.

The Eletre is now available in six variants: 600, 600 GT, 600 GT SE and 600 Sport SE, as well as the 900 Sport and 900 Sport Carbon as the top-of-the-line model. The Emeya series is named based on the same principle, although the Emeya 600 is not available in Europe, only in the UK. Both electric cars are now available to order and will arrive at the dealerships this summer.

Prices in the UK start at £84.990 – € 99.990 for the Eletre 600 and £84.

990 for the Emeya 600, while drivers in continental Europe will need to pay a minimum of €107.990 for Emeya 600 GT. That is a slight price increase compared to last year .

Lotus points out that in addition to the predefined equipment lines, customers can customise their vehicles. Various packages, options and colours are available. On the inside, the carmaker offers a new ‘Lotuswear Performance Fabric’ for the seats.

Just a quick overview: The Eletre 600 features a 450 kW dual motor, all-wheel drive and a 112 kWh battery pack. It also comes with 20-inch wheels. The GT and GT SE variants come with, for example, highway assist and 22-inch alloy wheels, and the GTE SE variant also has an intelligent glass roof.

The Eletre 900 Sport version boasts a 675 kW dual motor and a two-speed transmission. The Sport SE and Sport Carbon variants also come with massaging & ventilated front seats. The list is similar for the Emeya.

The Emeya 600, which is only available in the UK, also has a 450 kW dual motor. However, the battery pack’s energy content is only 102 kWh. The equipment for the GT, GT SE, and Sports variants is similar to that of the Eletre.

The carmaker also emphasises the cars’ ‘unrivalled performance’. “The Emeya 600 accelerates from 0 to 62 mph (0 to 100 km/h) in just 4.15 seconds (Eletre 600: 4.

5 seconds) and reaches a top speed of 155 mph (250 km/h). The Eletre 600 achieves a top speed of 159 mph (256 km/h),” the press release states. The Emeya 900 has a top speed of 256 kph and can complete the sprint pt 100 kph in 2.
