I4 (AMG-2.0 Turbo) DCT gearbox software update from LOTUS - mid August 2024

There is a software update that seems to have been released by Lotus for the gear shifting algorithm of the Emira AMG-2.0 Turbo. This may improve the perceived delays when using the flappy pedals, and it is said to even improve going from forward motion into reverse. It will be interesting to hear from owners, that gets this installed, about the extent and subjective feel of this update.

Did the dealership offer this update? What year is your Emira?Mine is a 2024 I4 and is somewhat slow on shifting. I also noticed when i shift from one drive mode to another, it sometimes initially gets stuck in gear and rpm escalates way up to max before changing gears. I also have delays in shifting reverse.

That sounds like the old software. When was the last time you took the car in for some work at a dealership? They should have applied all the available updates at that time.
If your last visit was post September 2024, I would call the dealership and have them check. They WILL have a log of what was uploaded to the car. If they missed it, get it installed, if they have installed, take it back and tell them you still have issues, it should not be like that at all
