The Lotus Emeya has officially made its debut in China. With a starting price of € 87,360, this electric powerhouse is not cheap, but it certainly has a lot to offer. The second EV from Lotus, after the Eletre SUV, Emeya comes in four trim levels, including a top-of-the-range Emeya R+ with 675 kW of power, 985 Nm of torque, and 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in just 2.78 seconds.
With a 102 kWh battery pack, Emeya and
Emeya S+ offer a range of up to 650 km on a single charge. The same battery
pack inside the more powerful R and R+ versions offers a range of 520 km and
480 km respectively. The sedan features an active front spoiler and rear
spoiler, which enhance both performance and efficiency.
Inside the Emeya, you'll five seats and a
15.1-inch infotainment screen. Those who prefer a more exclusive experience can
also opt for a four-seat layout. The Emeya boasts an impressive array of 34
driving assist sensors, including LiDAR technology, which aids in smart highway
driving and automatic parking. Two Nvidia Orin X chips do the number crunching.
The Lotus Emeya's four trims cost between
RMB 668,000 and RMB 1,180,000 in China, which translates to € 87,360 to
€ 154,300. And for those who crave additional customization, there's a range of
optional extras, from high-performance brake calipers to a stunning carbon
package.
