Matt Windle says Emira to be sold this summer in US market due to emissions.... Emira talk starts at 4.35 Sec

"...it'll be later this year that we get the cars over into the states because of the homologation that we need to do."

That almost sounds like it'll be later than summer

Yahoo is bad with putting old videos with new written text. Hopefully that was recorded last year when the Eletre come out...so he referring to cars to USA Summer 23...... missed that by a few days..shoulda said coming soon.

This was absolutely filmed today - from the Lotus Tech stock launch... multiple videos of Lotus CFO online at the moment. I re-watched it.... It is possible this was an older video from the Eletre launch. But very convoluted info being handed out if it is.

To be fair I'm not sure I've heard Matt Windle say a single truthful statement about the Emira. His quotes on cost, timelines, and performance have all proven to be incorrect.

True.... but if he had good news to share about Emira in the US, today with the Stock being launched is certainly the day to do it!

Or

He is playing the under promise / over deliver... Although Lotus is not known to do this.
 
Maybe a blanket statement because of the automatic delay until summer?

The video says nothing of the IPO launch. Seems like this video is old but if its not and now they are saying later this summer I am really not sure that my heart can take that!
 
Right. I seriously considered a ‘22 McLaren GT yesterday. ~$50k more than my Emira spec. My brain [wallet] talked some sense back into me.
I was looking at used 991.1 GT3s and 570S and it's pretty hard not to consider them at this point. Staying strong but still annoyed at needing to bike 30 miles in the rain to get to work.
