Gold FFM TomE Posted July 2, 2022 Gold FFM Report Share Posted July 2, 2022 First customer deliveries are in 2-3 months time. They're already doing a limited-run heritage special edition 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bee Posted September 2, 2022 Report Share Posted September 2, 2022 Does anyone know whether first customer deliveries still on for October? I'm really looking forward to seeing some reviews for the Evija. I'd love to see what it can do on circuits like Spa or the 'ring! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KusaKusa Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 Production officially started on the Evija, with first deliveries in 2023: https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1137487_lotus-evija-is-now-the-world-s-most-powerful-production-car Interestingly, the specs are quite different from the announcement of the car. A bit stronger motors, but more significantly it has 93 kWh battery instead of 70 and 4160 lbs instead of 3600-3700. Even with the higher bigger battery, it still gets only 250 miles of WLTP range. I'm guessing the battery size increased to hit that range target, which makes sense since super strong motors and more than 1 motor (let alone 4) typically impact range a great deal. I wonder if the volume of the battery changed and if that impacted the size of the Evija or the carbon monocoque. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAR Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 The positive news is that they sold some and they will start delivering some. i suspect the fittipaldi was a way to help the current customers to set up theirs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold FFM C8RKH Posted March 14 Gold FFM Report Share Posted March 14 I can't help but feel that the Rimac is the car that Lotus should have built. I mean, a crazy idea like using the batteries as a stressed component of the chassis is straight out of Colin's playbook for sure.

Gold FFM Steve V8 Posted March 15 Gold FFM Report Share Posted March 15 I've gotta say @jonwat , that is a stunning photo of what must now be the most beautiful car ever. I believe a Lamborghini Miura was displayed in the New York art gallery as the pinnacle of automotive art, the Evija should now sit there in its place. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You maybe haven't seen some of the Goodwood footage then? Whereabouts in Brisbane are you?

Yeah - look I know this is probably the best for traction that you can get, but still: 1.88 tonnes - seriously? - Perhaps F1 teams have got it all wrong and should instead be making their cars heavier?
