Lotus Evija Pictures & Videos

[Stubox]

I agree. Without the wings and protuberances other hypercars seem to insist on sprouting this is wonderfully elegant as well as purposeful.

they could not have designed anything more beautiful, this profile is just utterly perfect. 

 

And its small..

Lets hope that this design sets the basic architecture for future models

How did you hack into my Instagram account to get my picture 🥴

[Bibs]

Lotus+0forthewin wasn't a hard password to guess! 

[electro_boy]

Dear god that car is gorgeous 😍! The more pictures I see and the more angles see the more I'm impressed by the design.  I've said it already but well done Lotus!

Now my desktop wallpaper. The first car to oust my family photo for years. Very cool pic

Was that really the Hethel test track? If so the surface has deteriorated dramatically in the past 12 months. Also why the camouflage? 

[Arregueti]

It looks more like a runway or airfield to me. I like that EVIJA / ALIVE reflection.

[The Pits]

Agree, why bother with the camo when we've already seen the car? 

There hasn't been a squeak from Lotus since Goodwood. The silence is very strange particularly when the marketing budget is many times what JMG had to play with. There appears to be no interest in the current cars whatsoever and equal apathy for building some confidence in the brand. This is the critical time to lay the foundations for what is to come but it seems the guys who should be doing the groundworks are sleeping on the job.

[C8RKH]

You would have thought they'd had enough sleep over the past 7-10 years!

Looked like Dunsfold at times...

My guess is that the camo is to hide what isn't on the car / test mule yet - working lights perhaps!

Video looked like a rush job to me, over-pitched title for what you get to see "Shake down tests commence" might have been more apt.

The one thing Lotus doesn’t need to spend time and money on is a 3rd Party test track. Maybe it was a Top Gear test?

[Bibs]

I believe that's now earmarked for a housing development. Looked more like Elvington in Yorkshire to me.

Looks great in camo and for those saying why? I say why not, don’t understand all the negativity, sure we will see more promo videos of not just the Evija  but at least one other future model in the new year.

[Arregueti]

I don't understand the negativity about the camo either. It is just marketing IMO. It is green and yellow, to start with. I sometimes wonder if there is some sort of reverse psychology being used in some of the posts.

[Barrykearley]

Reckon the camo get up looks frankly amazing 🥰

[The Pits]

Genuinely curious about the camo really not bothered either way but it is usually used to disguise the car before launch. Very unusual to disguise a car that everyone has seen, can’t help but wonder what the idea is. Best guess is they want to make it look like a big development budget.

I am far more concerned about many other things that are going on (and not going on) up at Hethel but remain impressed by the work on Evija to date.

[electro_boy]

Who says it’s camo? Maybe it’s a genuine colour scheme? 😉

Yes video looks a bit rushed and lacking of real substance but every other car manufacturer does this. Everyone drops a tiny snippet of video every now and then. Or even the fake spy shots where the manufacturer them selfs have paid for the photographer to follow them round or tipped them off where the car will be. It helps to keep the hype up and keep the car in the media and people’s minds. 

[ramjet]

In my opinion, the camo doesn't really hide how the car looks.

[LotusLeftLotusRight]

One thing that the Evija has in spades over its hypercar competitors is its looks. So why attempt to hide it? Also we don’t actually get any impression of near 2000 bhp performance apart from one Top Gear style power-slide, which any sports car can replicate. To me the video is an opportunity wasted. I think other supercar makers would have put out something much better, or not at all.
