NedaSay Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 I think if one does pick a white paint and gets the black roof and skirt it will be they heck of a storm trooper rendition. I actually like the fascia it is aggressive, assertive, personal and distinctive while the back is just quite clean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NedaSay Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 BBC Radio HQ, a troupe of rythmic gymnasts, dancers and circus performers, original music ... That's the most lavish Lotus has done ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdavies Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 Trust Lotus will be giving figures for the range remaining after one 0-60 in 2.9sec run, then after 2 runs, then after 3 .................... etc. Pretty important factor for an EV designed for practical use, rather than for enjoyment. In the dark, wet, and cold weather, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LotusFella Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 Nice looking. Hope it’s not too expensive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Techyd Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 I quite like it! A little Lamborghini Uris from some angles mind but does seem somewhat inevitable when the basic shape is a box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold FFM TdM Posted March 29 Gold FFM Report Share Posted March 29 Does look Urus from the front. Has a hint of Audi electric from the back. I wonder what it weighs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NedaSay Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 (edited) Priced below 100k pounds entry level?! so they benchmarked it on both Urus and Model X. The price for electric boutique affair is impressive Edited March 29 by NedaSay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auRouge Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 Looks great.. this wasn’t an easy one to design given the competition… you’ve nailed it..well done Lotus! Love the front end, side profile and rear. I’d buy one over a Tesla, VAG and maybe even a Porsche if it proves to be reliable and well put together. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeller77 Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 Interesting. I'm not sure the US has fully approved rear view mirrorless cameras (they've been "studying it" for years) so if it comes Stateside it will likely have chunky mirrors.

Popular Post eUKenGB Posted March 29 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 29 (edited) I appreciate they wanted to put on a show, but at the end I felt too much fluff and not enough fact. Performance? Range? Charging times? Actual electric powertrain tech? Can it tow? And the million dollar question (literally), price? I wouldn't feel so 'short changed' if after the event, all that info (and more) was immediately available on their website. But it wasn't. In fact I couldn't even watch the launch on their website, despite their last email saying that was going to be one way to watch it. At the last minute I'm scrabbling around trying to find somewhere else to watch it, finally settling on YouTube. I don't mind if that's where it was mainly hosted, but at least put a bloody link to that on the website. Apart from that, I think the car looks really great. Price will be the deciding factor and still no idea about that. Maybe tomorrow. 😟 Edited March 29 by eUKenGB 3 Quote “You can’t have too many bikes" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
