Product Overview

Lotus Emira is a compact sports car in production from 2022. It is available with a supercharged V6 engine sourced from Toyota that displaced 3.5 liters. A smaller turbo 4 from AMG will be introduced later.
Like other Lotus vehicles, the Emira has superb handling characteristics. It uses powertrains from either Toyota (for the V6) or Mercedes (for the I4). However, in the Emira, these provide superb emotional experience.
Utility-minded owners will likely need to keep an alternative for hauling things around, as the tiny cargo space is almost surely insufficient.
