Meh. I’ve become.m numb to electric super car news. It’s not all the complicated to ad more power to an electric car, especially when money isn’t object.

I don’t care about 2 second 0-60 times. But I would like a 400 mile range car that is affordable for the average joe.

Difference being the electrics weren’t done by Lotus. Those are more like Alpina BMWs and RUF Porsches.

Electric cars are much more reliable than gasoline-powered vehicles because they have exponetially fewer moving parts.

We will invent stationary parts with questionable reliability if necessary!

As a Lotus owner, and someone who has followed the company very closely for a very long time , I can confidently say that t here is zero chance of this making it to production.

That instance received the most media but there have been so many other, there was a new Esprit with a LFA v8 before those concepts that was almost done b ut cancelled when Bahar decided it wasnt Exotic enough . They’ve been talking about an Evora roadster forever, just googled E vora roadster and we have an article from 2015 saying it would be unvelied in about 6 months. The new US compliant Elise was supposed to be here by now. I love the cars , but they always talk big and then dont have the money to back it up.
