ultra-light sports-car purity for an all-electric hyper-SUV with swagger. It delivers serious performance (0–100 km/h in ~2.95 s for the top trim) and a surprisingly usable range thanks to its ~112 kWh battery.
Inside, the technology hits premium: 15.1-inch touchscreen, 5G-ready, luxe materials all around. The design commands attention.
On the flip side: its size and weight dull the razor-sharp feel we expect from Lotus; real-world efficiency and ride comfort drop a notch when roads get rough. Ownership cost will also run high.
Bottom line: If you’re chasing an EV that feels special, breaks the mould, and isn’t shy of “big investment energy,” the Eletre nails the vibe. If you’re after a classic Lotus driving soul or value razor-thin cost per km, you might want to pause.
