For the next 24 hours perhaps Lotus Eunice would be more apt (for non UK people this is the name of a big storm that is going to hit us tomorrow)

Seems like it's time for Lotus to use some throwback vintage names and quit trying to be so appealing. Let's see some love for names appropriate for old ladies.

Edith
Eloise
Evelyn
Eileen (come on!)
Edna
Eudora
Ethel

Or some vintage boy names, now that they're going to be making slightly more butch SUV/SAV things?

Edgar
Elwood
Ephraim
Ernest
Eugene
Ezekiel
Ebenezer
Ecclesiasticus

I don't know how many of you are old enough to remember the days at Disneyland where they used ticket books, but For The Thrill: The Lotus E-Ticket

 

[Pugwash]

Lotus Ebygum. That may need some explaining to those not in the UK!

Today i've seen an article about the new Lotus and there they called it the Lotus Lambda

not sure if its true though...

For example this article, also about the Price and range etc.: https://topgear-autoguide.com/categ...lambda-2022-all-electric-suv-attack1607806080

That name makes me think of either a position or a fraternity.

or a COVID variant...

As an EV, get ready for the Silence of the Lambda remarks.

Lambda is a greek letter and is used in many different things. i just can't find the connection to an EV.

On Wikipedia you can find all the different "uses" for this letter: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda

[Pugwash]

That may just be the Lotus internal code name for it. I recall the Emira was originally referred to several years ago by a greek letter but can’t remember which one.

I think it was Gamma

 

[TomE]

Yes, Emira was Project Gamma. Evora was Project Eagle, so there isn't a consistent theme.

Found these images, 132 is going to look very good what ever the name

Shoot, I should have put my deposit in last week! Don't love my wife's Tesla Model Y, though this thing will probably be close to twice the price.
