    Lotus Emira Engine

    Lotus Emira Interior

    While the Lotus Emira is a more luxurious model by the brand's previous standards, it remains a compact and impractical sports car - and that’s very much on brand. In terms of storage inside the cabin, there are two cup holders and a small lidded console box, but the size of the cabin means everything is quite narrow and feels a little tight for space.

    Lotus Emira Speed

    The Lotus Emira i4 accelerates 0-100km/h in 4.4 seconds and has a top speed of 275km/h.
