Finally, Lotus has premiered its new all-electric Hyper-GT, the Lotus Emeya. The company did not reveal many details about this car, and what can be seen from the photos is that its design resembles the Lotus Eletre.
Progressive and powerful lines with strong musculature characterize this masterpiece in motion. Two rows of thin lights (Adaptive Driving Beam technology), a sporty design of the hood and an active grill in front, an active diffuser and a rear spoiler in the back, show that it is a serious sports car.
The car is finished in yellow with contrasting black A-pillars that “blend” with the black roof. At the back are a thin light bar that extends along the entire length, and an active rear wing that increases downforce and improves handling at high speeds.
Inside, the driver-focused cockpit is equipped with carbon fiber seats trimmed in white luxury sustainable upcycled fabric, which combined with black fabric covers parts of the dashboard and door panels. In front of the driver are the steering wheel with the lower flat part, as well as the centrally located display.
When it comes to the powertrain, the Lotus Emeya is powered by two electric motors with a total output of 905 hp (666 kW) and 726 lb-ft (985 Nm) of torque. It reaches 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.78 seconds with a top speed of 256 km/h (159 mph). It is equipped with a 102 kWh battery which, thanks to a 350kW DC fast charger, enables a range of 150 kilometers in 5 minutes of charging. The battery will be charged to 80 percent in just 18 minutes.
