Lotus is cranking up the excitement in the EV world with a revamped model range for its high-performance duo, the Eletre hyper-SUV and Emeya hyper-GT. With a new, streamlined line-up, buyers can now expect greater clarity, more personalisation, and a stronger nod to Lotus’ legendary heritage. Let’s dive into what’s new.

A Line-Up That Means Business
Gone are the days of complex trim names—Lotus is keeping it simple and powerful. Introducing the 600 and 900 models, where the numbers reflect their electrifying horsepower figures. In true Lotus style, these beasts are designed with a clear focus: track-honed performance meets cutting-edge luxury.

The Eletre now comes in six distinct trims: Eletre 600, 600 GT, 600 GT SE, 600 SPORT SE, 900 SPORT, and the flagship 900 SPORT CARBON. Meanwhile, the Emeya follows a similar pattern, minus the base 600 trim in Europe. Each version balances sportiness, luxury, and high-tech features, ensuring there’s an option for every kind of driver.
Performance That Shocks & Awes
Under the hood (or, in this case, under the floor), the 600 series packs a 450 kW (612 hp) dual-motor AWD setup, launching the Emeya 600 from 0-100 km/h in just 4.15 seconds, while the Eletre 600 takes a slightly more measured 4.5 seconds. Both models are primed for blistering speeds, with the Eletre topping out at 159 mph (256 km/h).

But if that’s not fast enough, the 900 series cranks things up to 918 hp (675 kW), dropping the century sprint to an insane 2.78 seconds in the Emeya 900 (2.95 seconds for the Eletre 900). With that kind of power, you’ll need to recalibrate your sense of speed.
Fast Cars, Faster Charging
Range anxiety? Not here. The Emeya boasts a WLTP range of 379 miles (610 km), while the Eletre delivers 373 miles (600 km). Need a quick top-up? Thanks to 800V battery tech, the Emeya can juice up from 10-80% in just 14 minutes with a 400kW DC charger. Even the Eletre keeps things rapid, taking just 20 minutes on a 350kW charger.

Luxury Meets Aerodynamics
While speed is a given, Lotus hasn’t skimped on comfort. Premium materials, advanced infotainment, ventilated massage seats, and customisable ambient lighting make every drive an event. Aerodynamics remain a key focus, with the signature ‘porosity’ design—inspired by the Evija and Emira—channelling air through, over, and around the car for optimal efficiency.

Get Ready to Drive
Available to order now, the Eletre and Emeya 600 & 900 models will hit Lotus retailers this summer. UK pricing kicks off at £84,990 (RM489,202), with European prices starting from €99,990 for the Eletre 600 and €107,990 (RM621,072) for the Emeya 600 GT.
One thing’s for sure—Lotus just made choosing your dream hyper-EV easier than ever.
