End of the Emira V6 order is now confirmed to be Feb 2025

[Nick in Sydney]

Fwiw I've now been told by three US dealers that rumors of the V-6's death are greatly exaggerated. One told me he checked with the mothership after reading rumors online only to be reassured that the V-6 will remain in production indefinitely.

This.

Today I got a call from the dealer. Looks like V6 order books should open again (for the first time after the FE) this year. (Switzerland)

This.

All this while multiple visitor to Hethel have been told to expect V6 production to end by 2026!

looks like they didnt sell the i4 well in europe, you can actually get a new i4 with 20%+ off. Lotus knows this and they will come up with a solution. If the Toyota V6 runs out (which it might does) I bet there will come something different.

The V6 Emira is the only Lotus product where the demand is exceeding supply. The i4's are sitting unsold on dealer showrooms and the electric offerings are all but dead. So Yea! Lotus is going to keep making the V6.

Sure but that's almost two years from now! In the long run, everything on earth is eventually ending.

If i4 demand is weak, and the TYP 135 has been delayed, Lotus will certainly look for ways to extend V6 production for as long as possible.
