Hyper Electric car with extraordinary capabilities
The Lotus Emeya, with up to 905 horsepower, is considered one of the fastest electric GTs in the world. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in under 2.8 seconds and can charge from 10% to 80% in just 14 minutes using a 400 kW DC fast charger. This makes it one of the fastest-charging electric cars available today.
Its powerful, efficient, and refined all-electric powertrain delivers the perfect balance of high performance, responsiveness and range with a maximum of 610 km per charge. The Lotus Emeya includes a range of advanced and active aerodynamic features such as the pioneering active front grille, rear diffuser, and rear spoiler to ensure smooth airflow, combined with a low center of gravity that enhances stability when driving and sets a standard for exceptional handling capability.
Drivers can select from up to five driving modes (Range, Tour, Sport, Individual, and Track) to tailor the car’s performance. An electronically controlled air suspension system with advanced onboard sensors respond to changes in road conditions and automatically adjusts the vehicle set-up. This ensures the smoothest ride and optimum driving experience for customers. Lightweight carbon ceramic brakes reduce un-sprung weight and braking distance – which contribute to dynamic handling – as well as doubling the lifespan of the components.
Balanced interior design and innovative technologies
The Lotus Emeya is consciously designed with advanced sustainable materials that are sustainably sourced to reduce its carbon footprint. It is equipped with a state-of-the-art 15.1-inch HD OLED Lotus HyperOS award winning in-car infotainment system, which intelligently helps drivers locate nearby public chargers. The system can also suggest alternative routes based on the driver’s real-time battery consumption.
An augmented reality (AR) head-up display on the windshield presents real-time road information, navigation data, and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), which improves drivers focus on the road and allowing instant access to important information, and minimising distractions.
The vehicle has two NVIDIA DRIVE Orin systems-on-a-chip (SoCs), which are used to process data from 34 state-of-the-art-surround sensors up to 30 times a second, offering 360-degree perception with no blind spots.
It is also equipped with four deployable LiDARs, 18 radars, seven 8 mp cameras and five 2 mp cameras, that combine to ensure driver confidence by scanning for obstacles at a radius of up to 200m around the car, in every direction, even in low light or inclement weather. They can even reconstruct a virtual environment around the vehicle to define the best trajectory.
Additionally, the Lotus Emeya features a Dolby Atmos enabled 3D surround sound system from world-renowned Lotus partner KEF.
Practical and ideal for daily use
The Lotus Emeya is designed for practicality without compromising on luxury. It features a luxurious and ample boot of up to 509-litres, a functional and spacious interior, ambient lighting functions that intuitively communicates with the driver, and five massage modes at three different levels of intensity.
Innovative safety features include sensors which can detect obstacles ensuring a door will not open if the vehicle is at risk of damage. In addition, a kick sensor on the tailgate enables customers to easily open the boot, even when the drivers’ hands are full. The advanced intelligent panoramic glass roof allows passengers to adjust light levels and cabin ambiance effortlessly.--TradeArabia News Service
