Lotus no longer does things by halves. The British brand is accelerating its electric transformation by unveiling a completely redesigned lineup for its high-end models, the Eletre (SUV) and Emeya (GT sedan). Goal: simplify the offer, maximize perceived value… and adopt a distinctly premium positioning, where every detail counts, regardless of the cost to the customer.
The new names 600 and 900 now directly reflect the power of the motors: 612 hp (450 kW) and 918 hp (675 kW), respectively. These versions are complemented by well-known trim levels for brand enthusiasts—GT, GT SE, SPORT SE, or SPORT CARBON—updated to better structure the offering. This choice allows Lotus to provide a bespoke experience, midway between technological luxury and radical sportiness.
More versions, for those who can
Thus, the Eletre SUV is available in six versions: 600, 600 GT, 600 GT SE, 600 SPORT SE, 900 SPORT, and 900 SPORT CARBON. The Emeya adopts the same logic, although in Europe the base 600 version is not available. Customers can then customize their vehicle at will: new colors (Zenith White, Akoya White), interior options Quartz or Jasper, LOTUSWEAR technical fabric, technological packs, and more.
In terms of performance, Lotus remains true to its promise: “For The Drivers”. The Emeya 600 claims a 0 to 100 km/h in 4.15 seconds, the Eletre 600 in 4.5 seconds. The 900 versions verge on the top: 2.78 seconds for the Emeya, 2.95 seconds for the Eletre. All with top speeds exceeding 260 km/h. Range is not sacrificed: up to 610 km WLTP for the Emeya, 600 km for the Eletre, and record charging times thanks to the 800V architecture (10 to 80% in 14 to 20 minutes depending on the model).
With this new lineup structure, Lotus fully embraces its move upmarket. Prices reflect this ambition: the Eletre 600 starts at €99,990, and the Emeya 600 GT at €107,990 on the European market. These prices clearly reflect the brand’s intention: to always deliver more, without compromise, even if it means targeting a more demanding—and wealthier—audience.
Available for order now, first deliveries are expected this summer through the Lotus network.
