Lotus is fully focused on an all-electric future and has launched its third EV in the form of the Lotus Emeya four-door electric GT car. Following the Evija hypercar and the Eletre SUV, Lotus describes the Emeya as a “four-door hyper GT”, pitching the car as a rival to everything from the Porsche Taycan Turbo S to the Tesla Model S Plaid.
The British brand says that the Emeya line-up should follow that of the Eletre relatively closely and has published specifications for the range-topping variant, which is powered by a 102kWh battery. The brand hasn't confirmed exactly how much range the Emeya will deliver, but it has announced that up to 893bhp and 985Nm of torque will be available from a dual-motor powertrain, giving the Emeya four-wheel drive. The unit mounted on the front axle features a single-speed gearbox, while the rear drive unit gets a two-speed transmission, similar to the spec on Porsche's fastest Taycan saloon.
