OK, Lotus. Very cool. But when can I read an Evija test??

One does not usually say this about an EV but… WOW!

ICE
4 door family car: 1,600-1,800kg
Supercar: 1,000-1,400kg

EV
4 door family car: 2,300kg
Supercar: 2,300kg

Lotus can use all the CF in the world but I don’t see a path for making the car light and reasonably priced.

Wait, so did they finish making the old one?

T"he power and performance are more akin to a hypercar’s than what we’re familiar with from a traditional Lotus too. Even with half the Evija’s output it still has 986bhp. That’s fed to all four wheels, though it’s unclear whether it uses two or four motors. The battery is a 70kWh unit (compared to the Evija’s 93kWh battery), while range is a WLTP-certified 250 miles, identical to the Evija’s. Happily, as a result, the Theory 1 is lighter than the Evija. Though no precise figure has been given, it’s said to be under 1600kg."

Lotus Theory 1 concept is a three-seat, 986bhp hypercar | Evo

With Veyron power, a carbon tub and EV underpinnings, the Lotus Theory 1 is more junior Evija than Emira successor

Unrealistic target that won't be meet when they find out prospective customers don't wat a 250mile range EV for $200,000 in 2026. As a result a bigger battery would be required.
