Lotus is doubling down on its EV momentum with a fresh update to the Eletre hyper-SUV and the Emeya hyper-GT. For 2025, these sleek electric machines get a simplified naming system, sharper trim packages, and even more ways for drivers to tailor performance or comfort—whichever path you take, the end result is pure Lotus.
What’s New? A Smarter Way to Shop Lotus
Starting now, you’ll see the Eletre and Emeya listed as either “600” or “900” models — a reference to their horsepower ratings. That’s a straightforward, no-math-needed approach to power specs: 600 means 612 hp, 900 means 918 hp. Each model then branches into clearly defined trims like GT, GT SE, and SPORT CARBON, letting drivers pick between tech-luxury or track-tuned setups.
For example, the Emeya 600 GT SE gets comfort-first extras like an intelligent glass roof and ambient lighting. The 900 SPORT CARBON, on the other hand, goes all-in with lightweight materials and aggressive aero for serious speed lovers.
And yes, Lotus fans — classic nameplates like GT and GT SE are officially back.
Electrifying Performance, Lotus DNA Intact
Both the Eletre and Emeya 600 models feature a dual-motor setup that pushes out 612 horsepower and all-wheel drive. You’re looking at 0–62 mph in just over four seconds and a top speed of 155 mph. But if you want the full rollercoaster effect, the 900 versions bring 918 hp and cut the 0–62 sprint to under three seconds. That’s supercar speed in a family-size package.
Despite the performance, range isn’t sacrificed. The Emeya can go up to 379 miles on a full charge (WLTP), and fast-charging tech gets you from 10% to 80% in about 14 minutes on a 400kW charger. The Eletre’s 350kW system isn’t far behind. Both are among the fastest-charging EVs you can buy today.
Style, Substance, and Everyday Versatility
Both models still offer what makes Lotus special: precision handling, sleek design, and a genuine connection to the road. But this generation is also about comfort and tech. Ventilated massage seats, a 29- or 51-inch head-up display, KEF’s premium audio, and soft-close doors are all on the menu.
Plus, Lotus brings its “porosity” design approach—moving air through and around the car for better efficiency and stability—straight from its supercars into the Eletre and Emeya. That’s the kind of motorsport-to-road thinking we love to see.
Pricing and Availability
The Eletre 600 kicks off at £84,990 in the UK (€99,990 in Europe), and the Emeya 600 starts at the same price point in the UK (with European pricing from €107,990 for the GT model). The entire refreshed range is available to order now and will begin arriving at Lotus retailers this summer.
