It accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in under 2.8 seconds and can charge from 10 percent to 80 percent in just 14 minutes using a 400 kW DC fast charger. This makes it one of the fastest-charging electric cars available today.

Its powerful, efficient, and refined all-electric powertrain delivers the perfect balance of high performance, responsiveness and range with a maximum of 610 km per charge. The Lotus Emeya includes a range of advanced and active aerodynamic features such as the pioneering active front grille, rear diffuser, and rear spoiler to ensure smooth airflow, combined with a low center of gravity that enhances stability when driving and sets a standard for exceptional handling capability.

Drivers can select from up to five driving modes (Range, Tour, Sport, Individual, and Track) to tailor the car’s performance. An electronically controlled air suspension system with advanced onboard sensors responds to changes in road conditions and automatically adjusts the vehicle setup. This ensures a smooth ride and optimum driving experience for customers.
