Uploaded 1 year ago by Autogefühl
Video Summary
-The Lotus Emeia is a "hyper GT." - It is over 2.1 meters wide and over 5.1 meters long, placing it in the Porsche Taycan segment. - The front daytime running lights are aggressive, and the air vents are real and fully functional, part of a cooling air curtain. - The air intakes move based on the driving mode and demands of the car. - It has optional mirror screens. - There are three cameras on the car. - There are three versions: Base, S, and R. - There is 500 L of boot space. - The roof is two-tone black, which allows seeing the carbon spoiler more clearly. - The carbon rear vents are real and functional, directing air to cool the rear brakes. - The diffuser has carbon trim. - There is a frunk, which will accommodate charging cables. - There is a 102 kWh lithium-ion battery, all with 800V architecture. - At-home charging to 22 kW, and fast charging to 400kW. - Charging from 10-80% is claimed in 14 minutes. - Range is around 500 km. - The interior depends on options, styling and the version chosen. - The interior uses a lot of sustainable materials and recycled content. - This car had optional mirror screens. - The door design does not have a door handle and uses a button. - For adults, sitting in the middle rear may be uncomfortable. - The rear display is used to set HVAC, roof settings, and sound. - With the car in sport mode, everything turns red and the car feels tight. - Despite its size, the car feels stable. - Even though it's a large car, you can accurately drive it on tighter roads. - There is something special about this Lotus. - Over 2-meters-wide it is apparent on tighter roads. - This car is smooth, which has taken up an extra mile from Lotus. - The infotainment system is built on an Unreal gaming engine. - As a hyper GT, there is a feeling of elegance. - Over time, more updates are expected over-the-air. - This review is an example of what Lotus set out to create. - This reviewer would choose this over the electric. - Its design is highly commendable.
