The first next-generation Lotus is also the last internal combustion model, as Geely, Lotus’ new owner, is betting on the electrification of its range. This is the direction the brand needs to go, while saying goodbye to the path it has navigated with mixed success for more than 70 years. What sets the Emira apart from its predecessors is first and foremost its functionality – you can easily use it on a daily basis. If anyone is worried that they won’t find the Lotus philosophy of years ago, they will be very surprised after the first kilometers. The car drives phenomenally, and thanks to the 2-liter AMG unit it does not lack power. Sitting behind the wheel of the Emira, you will be sure to stand out on the road. Design-wise, the manufacturer has reached the level of high-end rivals, and many could mistake this model for a Ferrari or McLaren.
