Come 1 July 2025, Lotus is giving its Eletre hyper-SUV and Emeya hyper-GT a full-on philosophical refresh. The 2025 line-up for both Eletre and Emeya now runs on a clearer naming convention, ‘600’ and ‘900’, which handily reflect their power output in metric horsepower. For the nostalgic, the beloved trim names of GT SE and SPORT SE also make a triumphant return, resurrected from the Lotus hall of fame and stitched ...

The Lotus Emira Turbo SE stands as a fitting tribute to the internal combustion engine, arguably its finest farewell. Lotus, as the legend goes, was built on a whisper and a prayer, and a borderline obsession with lightness. Colin Chapman, the man behind the badge, would probably break into hives at the thought of thick door insulation or soft-close tailgates. AMG, meanwhile, marches to a different drumbeat altogether. It’s a name that ...

The automotive landscape is rapidly evolving, with electrification becoming the focal point of innovation and sustainability. Few brands navigate this shift as compellingly as Lotus, renowned for their heritage in driving dynamics and performance.

It’s hard to imagine a more evocative sight than a Lotus with the letters “SE” stitched into its DNA. For those with even a hint of petrol in their veins, those two initials bring to mind the spirited Esprits of the past, the agile Excel SEs, and the turbocharged thrills of a bygone analogue era. Now, for 2025, Lotus channels that same energy into its latest stunner, the Emira Turbo SE, which ...

In a world teetering on the edge of electric vehicles and tech-packed hypercars, the Lotus Emira arrives as a beacon for purists. It’s the car that gives Lotus the authentic sports car pedigree it needs… whilst the brand transitions to an electric future. This isn’t Lotus’s big money-spinner (that title goes to the Eletre) but rather, the Emira is Lotus’ statement of intent. A reminder that before we dive headlong into a ...

The world of electric cars is moving fast, and the Lotus Emeya is keeping pace with the best of them. When you think of Lotus, it’s all about lightweight handling and nimble sports cars, right? Well, the Emeya wants to change that narrative. This is the second all-electric offering from Lotus in this new era under the Geely umbrella, and it was designed specifically to shake up the luxury EV market, positioning ...

The Lotus Emeya is the brand’s first 4-door hyper-GT car, and joins the Eletre and Emira in Singapore. So, what exactly is a 'hyper-GT'? Lotus defines it as a grand tourer capable of completing the 0-100km/h sprint in under three seconds. The Emeya R, the top dog of the range, is claimed to achieve this in 2.78 seconds. This impressive feat is thanks to its dual motors, which produce 905bhp and 985Nm ...

The Lotus Eletre is the brand’s first foray into the world of SUVs - Sacrilegious to the purists, but alluring to a new generation. When the Lotus Eletre first rocked up to the scene, it shocked motoring press worldwide. Controversial would be the word to describe the whole ordeal, mainly because ‘this’ is pretty much what the world thinks a Lotus shouldn’t be; a tech-laden lumbering electric SUV. Mind you, this was ...

As the world goes on a full-on EV charge (pardon the pun), the one brand that most enthusiasts would've imagined might resist the trend would be Lotus. Yet here we are with the all-electric Eletre SUV. Well, hyper-SUV, actually, as Lotus calls it. As an ex-Lotus owner, I know full well what a Lotus car represents and embodies, and the Eletre is everything opposite of that, and I'm not even talking ...

The Lotus Emira is the last ICE sports car from Lotus, but the brand has also gone all out to make it the best. Having driven various iterations of Elises and Exiges over the last 25 years or so, there was never any doubt about how wonderfully pure the driving experience was. However, it always seemed to be at the expense of comfort, practicality, convenience, and, crucially, quality. Every time I got ...
