Lotus Emira (2021)
The Lotus Emira is the last purely petrol-powered Lotus sports car before the brand transitions more into electrified models, offering mid-engine dynamics, modern usability, and strong performance in a lightweight package — making it one of Lotus’s most significant road cars.
• Powertrain: Mid-engine petrol sports car offered with either a 2.0 L turbocharged inline-4 (AMG-derived) or a 3.5 L supercharged V6 carried over from Lotus’ Exige/Evora lineage — both paired with manual, automatic or DCT gearboxes and rear-wheel drive.

• Performance: Depending on the engine, power ranges around 360–400 hp with 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in under ~4.5 s and a top speed up to ~290 km/h (180 mph) — competitive with premium sports coupes of its era.

• Chassis & Dynamics: Lightweight sports-car architecture with a mid-engine layout and Lotus-tuned suspension delivers sharp handling and agile dynamics.

• Aerodynamics & Handling: Flowing body lines and aero-optimized surfaces improve stability at high speed while maintaining classic British sports-car character.

• Design & Layout: Sleek two-seat coupe with modern sports-car styling, quality interior tech (large touchscreen, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto), and everyday usability alongside performance focus.
