The experience? Seamless, refined and unmistakably Lotus in character.
LOTUS PERFORMANCE, WITHOUT HESITATION
Rapid charging capability, intelligent energy recovery and integrated onboard power generation work together to reduce dependency on charging infrastructure and minimise interruption across extended journeys. The result is a vehicle that feels adaptable, reassuring and ready to continue the drive when plans change unexpectedly.
Advanced Energy Management
A high-efficiency 2.0-litre engine operates as an intelligent onboard power generator, helping maintain available energy over extended journeys. Paired with Lotus Intelligent Drive, it supports sustained performance across changing driving conditions.
High-Output Power Generation
A 150 kW onboard power generator continuously replenishes available charge while driving, supporting immediate electric response and sustained high-speed capability without interrupting the rhythm of the journey.
900V rapid charging
Advanced 900V electrical architecture supports ultra-fast charging capability. With 20-80% charging in just 9 minutes, downtime is reduced, helping you return to the journey quickly.
A Battery For Demanding Conditions
A high-rate hybrid battery, capable of 6C charging and 11C discharging, preserves driver confidence by consistently discharging full electric power. Even at low temperatures or with charge states as low as 5%.
Engineered around real-world performance
EVs can face changing conditions during demanding use, from reduced response at low charge levels to temperature-related limitations during sustained driving.
Eletre X has been developed to minimise those compromises through advanced thermal management, rapid power delivery and intelligent energy balancing systems. Because long-distance range only matters when performance remains available alongside it.
Dynamically balanced
Developed from Lotus chassis engineering expertise first pioneered in Formula One in 1983, Dual-Chamber Air Suspension and Dual-Valve CCD dampers deliver faster response, greater composure and precision handling across changing road conditions.
Composed and comfortable
48V Active Anti-Roll Bar technology engages before body roll develops, helping Eletre X combine precise cornering control with the refined ride comfort expected of a long-distance luxury SUV.
Race-bred braking and tyres
Brembo 6-piston brakes and exclusive 21-inch Pirelli P Zero 5 high-performance tyres deliver strong stopping power, confident pedal feel and enhanced cornering grip during demanding driving.
Confidence for Every Driver
Developed with expertise carried over from Lotus sports cars, the Dynamic Performance Management control system provides intelligent fallback support, helping drivers access greater confidence, stability and control in changing conditions.
All-Wheel Drive, Always
Eletre X engages its four-wheel-drive system continuously, maintaining immediate traction, optimal power delivery and confident response without needing to reduce performance to preserve range capability.
Steering Precision
A tuned 15.5 steering ratio reduces steering sensitivity while maintaining accuracy and control, helping Eletre X feel more precise, stable and confidence-inspiring during high-speed and long-distance driving.
SHAPED BY LOTUS
Inspired by decades of design innovation, Eletre X combines dramatic proportions, aerodynamic precision and carefully controlled surfacing to create a powerful evolution of Lotus design.

Hypercar-Inspired Proportions
Low visual mass, muscular surfacing and a cab-forward stance give Eletre X a powerful, performance-focused presence shaped by Lotus hypercar thinking and aerodynamic innovation.
Sculpted for Presence
Short overhangs, wide track proportions and carefully controlled surfaces create a confident, technical design language that feels purposeful whether moving or standing still.
Boomerang-shaped daytime running lights, piano-key LED elements and a full-width rear light blade create a distinctive lighting signature engineered to enhance visibility, presence and unmistakable Lotus identity.
Driver-focused control
A compact flat-bottom steering wheel with integrated paddle controls places key vehicle functions naturally within reach, supporting a more focused and connected driving experience.
The centring mark, reduced wheel diameter and intuitive regenerative braking and drive mode controls reinforce Eletre X’s performance-focused character while improving confidence and usability behind the wheel.
Active rear spoiler
An intelligent active rear spoiler continuously adapts to changing driving conditions and drive modes, balancing drag reduction, downforce and braking stability to support greater confidence at speed.
Additional downforce during high-speed cornering and hard braking helps maintain composure, stability and precise vehicle control when driving demands increase.
HYPERCAR-DERIVED AIRFLOW MANAGEMENT
Aerodynamic channels inspired by Lotus hypercar development help direct airflow through the vehicle body to improve cooling efficiency and reduce turbulence around the wheels and underbody. The result is greater stability and reduced aerodynamic resistance at speed.

- Should learn from Porsche how to make a luxury SUV starting at $60k and a dealer network that actually stock service parts. Not a heater- own a Lotus, but it’s definitely a commitment most won’t make for an SUV.- It's a hybrid, true electric range is only 350km. WTF??? This feels like lying to the customer about the range. If you don''t look it up, you would think electric range is 1200km. Very bad move by Lotus. Shame.
- It's not an EV suv. It's a hybrid SUV. Can you people not read? And by your idea, should they stop making combustion engine cars cause there are already millions of them?
- yes all cars look like this obviously, there is no reason for old useless boomer tech wiuthout space and uncomfortable, this beats those still anyway with ease. ther are plenty inneficient loud old uncomfortable cars available for you with cargospace for a can of coke
