The 2024 Lotus Electra - a shocking deviation from the brand's lightweight sports car legacy, now rolling out a hefty 6,000 lb electric SUV all the way from China. Can you believe it? This beast flaunts some wild exterior features like opening triangles for battery cooling, air channels slicing through the car, and a rear light bar that smoothly transitions into a turn signal. And let's not forget the rear wings housing lidar equipment for potential self-driving upgrades down the road. Lotus is clearly thinking ahead!
Step inside the Electra, and you're greeted by a colossal, ultra-responsive infotainment screen that mirrors real-time car functions - from controlling the sunroof to adjusting the rear spoiler positions with a mere tap. The interior is chock-full of quirks, like a passenger side screen for music controls, a driver side screen displaying essential vehicle info, and a center console boasting adjustable cup holders and a unique gear selector. But wait, there's more - climate controls are split between physical buttons and screen integration, with a nifty feature allowing you to tweak the center vent airflow direction right from the screen. It's all about the details, isn't it?
The steering wheel isn't your run-of-the-mill setup either, featuring regen and drive mode switches disguised as paddles, alongside unconventional volume and cruise control buttons. Even the door panel surprises with a button that electronically pops open the door, while the power mirror controls are managed through the driver's gauge cluster - now that's a departure from the norm! And let's not overlook the interior lighting, offering a gradual activation for reading lights and customizable ambient lighting colors. Overall, the Electra's interior exudes luxury with high-quality materials and a sleek, modern design that perfectly complements its premium price tag. This Lotus may be different, but it's certainly turning heads for all the right reasons!
