    Gulf Arab States/Middle East deliveries

    There's some mountain roads not in Dubai but the cities around I took my Emira on a trip and it was really fun drive, there's about 4 famous driving roads in the country all within 2 hours of Dubai, that's a picture going on a trip on a road leading to "Khorfokan city" which is part of Sharjah...

    i4 FE - When are we going to see it? Getting annoyed

    Let's see electric replacement is planned 2026 hence alot saying 2026 but tbh I expect delays in that model, and I believe both will be produced along side each other in 2027/2028 with Emira ending in those years. The delays and order list should be done by end of 2024 hence I expect S model to...

    i4 FE - When are we going to see it? Getting annoyed

    Emira production is planned to end in 2028 if I'm not mistaken, that's the life span of the car and usually a track variant is released within 2 years of production end just like majority of manufacturer, from what I understood is that S will be more of revised and slightly more powerful V6...

    i4 FE - When are we going to see it? Getting annoyed

    I know alot are disappointed by I4 sound and it's expected anyway you can't do magic to the exhaust tbh, but I mentioned before I will rather see Emira R get I4 than V6 and I know alot will be annoyed by this, but let me make things clearer to me a driving experience is interior sound than...

    Power shifting (No lift shifting) in racing

    I think alot misunderstood what I meant by power shifting, what I meant is basically "no lift shifting", basically doing shifts as you will do normally but without releasing your foot from throttle pedal. Like some mentioned also some cars have a system for that for example I tried in GT3 and...

    Power shifting (No lift shifting) in racing

    Thanks for the reply, I didn't buy Emira to drag race but we were drag racing Exige final edition to a Tesla Model 3 and someone wanted me to power shift which I said no way and he started saying he was doing it all the time in his Focus ST without any issues, and multiple guys were agreeing...

    Power shifting (No lift shifting) in racing

    Hi everyone I was having discussion with some Manual cars owners about Power shifting if it's fine to do it when racing or drag racing for example in an Emira or Exige or not, some cars like Porsche have a system for this but Lotus doesn't and my question will there be an issue doing it for drag...

    Another 718 GT4 vs. Emira Test Drive

    Emira break in is almost done, GT4RS will be another nightmare, let me see if I will follow the break in recommendation by Porsche properly this time cause I have doubts about that 😄

    Lotus Communications

    Emira I have been waiting since launch date when I placed my deposit, I paid first payment as early as possible which is like a year or so ago I believe and until today car didn't even start production with every month they saying one more month. Porsche on other hand they said we got you...

    More details for KEF Audio

    I'm no Audio expert but been using KEF audio for 15 years now at home, it was one of reasons I got excited for Emira tbh and for Lotus brand overall hence even Eletre I ordered, that aside from my knowledge with KEF basically is that Uni-Q drivers need run in period to get to optimum level as...

    Anyone thinking twice about buying Emira?

    The main problem here and why majority doubting Emira purchase is due to the delays, I started to feel this in myself also the hype is dying down in me, everything going for worse, some good deals also started to show in the market, M2 released recently, Z06 started production, Porsche made 911...

    C8 is "more controllable at its limits than the Lotus Emira." - Rory Reid

    That's BS, I driven the car and know even racing drivers who did, C8 one of worst when it comes driving on the limit, if you exceed the limit you are basically gone! Let me tell you why, it have over 60% of it's weight at the back (1% to 911) so don't get fooled by mid engine term, it have one...

    Who has had a Test Drive , score from 1 to 10

    No one saying what you saying is not correct but rating Emira high just for sake of what you said will be lying to ourselves, we have to be realistic, Emira have shortcomings hence I said it's not car of the year sort of car. I won't be here if it wasn't a car worth buying, but the V6/Manual...

    Who has had a Test Drive , score from 1 to 10

    I like your view about the car, some said why it's not "car of the year" sort of car and I kept saying for ages since first time I saw the car and started it, the engine + Gearbox combo!!! It's a Lotus but that Lotus we know about is outdated in 2020s...... It's competitors kept developing...
