Isn't it strange the Emira is around the same size as a Huracan?

luciddaydream · Dec 12, 2023

To me, the Huracan seems huge when I see it in person.
Yet, on this site, they seem to be the same size:

Lotus Emira 2022-present vs. Lamborghini Huracán 2014-2020

Lotus Emira Coupé 2022-present vs. Lamborghini Huracán Coupé 2014-2020. Compare car dimensions (length, width and height) vs. street perspective.

www.carsized.com

To me, in my head, I think of the Huracan to be larger than even a 911.

Used that site previously to plan parking in my garages. Found it odd that the Emira is the same exact wheelbase as our VW MkV Jetta.

Huracan is 4cm longer

And the Emira looks so much sleeker and much better curves/angles.

A lot of a vehicle has to do with its presence, and typically the car with more presence seems bigger. I know it's gonna ruffle some feathers because this is an Emira forum, but the Huracan has more presence.

It's valid statement. If the Emira was the price of a Huracan that statement might hurt but at less than half MSRP, I'll take a little less presence!

Lambos have always looked 'fat', whereas the Emira looks 'slim'... In person the Emira isn't a 'small' car though, especially if you see one next to an elise

i think its the haunches of the emira that make it look slimmer. its like a BBL

I would like to see them in the same color. If so I am not so sure. Huracan is an acquired taste though IMO.

I love the Huracan and it drives amazing. Cheapest one i saw at the dealer was $248k no warranty

That being said, here ya go.

For those who want more Presence:Overall you want to look at the entire car, not individual elements.

Color
yellow badge replacements(depending on spec, yellow badges can grab too much attention )
NA ember reflector delete(in the headlights)
wheels will make a huge difference.
Break color should compliment, yet not compete for attention based on spec (no McDonald specs)

Extras: Lanari v12 sound exhaust and probably a rear window vent cover for detail.

Yea, the bodywork on a Lambo is just something else. It's very masculine, angular, and aggressive. Definitely more presence.

Well, I asked to see it in the same color and obviously someone delivered!

If the Emira had a wing this would be a close call. However I am still going down fighting in saying I will give the nod to the Lambo but in a way like a big butt has more presence than a medium butt.

luciddaydream · Dec 13, 2023

Yeah that is a cool pic.
I don't really care about exotic presence, I prefer more beauty
The emira has more beauty and class to me.

But yeah its wild how small the huracan is. Because the emira is even smaller than a Jaguar F type. Which look tiny. (someone has one in my parking ramp)

Thanks for sharing that website, nice find. I'm comparing against my upcoming 911. Surprised the Emira is wider and lower.

Shahaf2911 · Dec 14, 2023

Idk side by side the visual effects make the lambo look bigger, it’s lower + a bit longer while having hard straight lines, really good visual effects
2 completely different designs choices, the emira IMO is more classy and elegant. Not quite lined up but good example haha

I am going to an Emira from a Porsche 992. The 992 seems bloated and I feel less connected to the road than earlier 911's.

Its wider, yes, but a lot shorter (than a 911) and the seats are closer and cabin seems more intimate and connected... I think..

(I test drove one once and I liked it but it was just a short experience!)

Could you attach the picture that has the Emira? I only see a Lambo.

FlyNavy01 · Dec 20, 2023

The Emira is also very similar in size (61mm longer and 46mm wider) to the Gordon Murray T.50, which makes me happy. Although the T.50 is 500kg lighter of course. The dimensions are even closer when you compare it to the T.33.

Kinda hard to follow it though.
