According to the manufacturer, it will reach a top speed of 180 mph and reach 62 mph in less than 4.5 seconds. “The Lotus Emira is a game-changer.

This includes intentions to offer only electric vehicles by that time. According to the business, which is controlled by China-based Geely, the car’s sleek, yet aggressive appearance was inspired by the more than $2 million Lotus Evija EV. The car will be powered by either a Toyota Motor 3.5-litre V-6 engine or a Mercedes-Benz performance AMG 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine. According to Lotus, it will have a maximum power output of 400 horsepower and a maximum torque output of 317 foot-pounds. Lotus EmiraLotusLotusLotusLotusLot/n
