EMIRA
The Lotus story continues with a new icon: Emira. A car that doesn’t just turn heads but turns conventional thinking on its head, with its exotic supercar looks, everyday usability and enhanced comfort combined with class leading Lotus driving dynamics.
It’s everything you’d expect from a Lotus, but like nothing you’d expect. The journey towards a thrilling new future begins here.*
STUNNING PERFORMANCE, EVERYDAY
Packed with the latest technology demanded by the discerning driver. Access to the car’s infotainment system is via a 10.25-inch centrally mounted touch-screen, with an additional 12.3-inch TFT driver’s display behind the steering wheel. All content is exclusive to Lotus and has been designed and developed by an in-house team. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are integrated as standard.
EVERYDAY USABILITY
The everyday sports car that’s high on comfort and functionality. It has twin central cup holders, a phone storage slot, and door bins that can accommodate a 500ml bottle. Practicality also comes from the glovebox, trinket tray, armrest between the seats with USB and 12v ports, plus a console net for bottles or documents.
Luggage or other large items can be stored behind the two seats (208 litres) or in the boot to the rear of the engine (151 litres) to accommodate a standard-sized flight case or a set of golf clubs.
PREMIUM AUDIO
First Edition will be fitted with a KEF 10-channel premium audio system which includes three KEF Uni-Q speakers and a fresh air subwoofer providing a pure sound experience. The collaboration and fitment of KEF audio into an OEM automotive application is a first for the brand. Featuring KEF’s signature Uni-Q system, a unique driver technology which combines an innovative miniaturised tweeter with the mid-range driver, so they occupy the same acoustic centre. With careful engineering and some patented technology, it results in a single speaker unit that covers the entire mid-range and high-frequency audio spectrum.

CHASSIS & SUSPENSION
The car has two defined chassis and suspension settings. Tour is tuned for everyday road use, delivering the optimum blend of Lotus dynamic performance and handling with a more comfortable ride. Sports is available with the optional Lotus Drivers Pack and provides a slightly stiffer suspension set-up for enhanced dynamic capability and feel. Lotus Engineering departments have worked with both Michelin and Goodyear to develop 2 new tyre concepts that are larger than those of Evora and bespoke for the Lotus Emira. Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport tyres enhance all weather usability and ride quality without compromising driving feedback whilst the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres achieve extreme track performance without compromising comfort.
EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Emira is equipped with full LED exterior lighting as standard. Full LED lighting achieves an incredibly bright crystal white light (75,000 Candelas) that provides excellent visibility, particularly in wet and gloomy conditions or driving at night, while using much less energy than halogen or xenon HID bulbs, which is great for the environment as well as extending the lifetime of your battery. The rear LED taillights are formed in an elongated circular shape that accentuates the vehicles design at the rear and includes a third high level rear brake light centrally mounted in the rear wing.
LOTUS DYNAMICS
Developed for optimal performance, Emira utilises clever aerodynamic packaging as standard. The flat chassis floor, motorsport style front splitter, four element rear diffuser and integrated rear wing work in conjunction with the aerodynamic body. This allows for a fluid air flow that will produce a high level of balanced downforce bestowing Emira with enhanced high speed stability and cornering power.
