Most Helpful Review

Yes this is the first Review !

Exploring the Lotus Eletre as an Indian car reviewer, I'm intrigued by its bold venture into the electric SUV space. From a local standpoint, it impeccably marries luxury and eco-consciousness, aligning with India's burgeoning interest in electric vehicles. The Eletre's standout features include a cutting-edge electric drivetrain, offering an impressive range perfect for city commuting. Inside, the cabin radiates sophistication with top-tier materials and advanced technology. However, a noteworthy downside is the limited charging infrastructure in certain Indian regions, which poses a real challenge. While the Eletre's performance is praiseworthy, its premium price may deter potential buyers. Lotus strikes a commendable balance between innovation and style, catering to India's evolving automotive scene, though the cost and charging infrastructure remain crucial factors for prospective customers to weigh. Lastly, I would like to share that, there are many more EVs present in this price segment so take into consideration that you get the EV that you want.

My future car

I want to buy this car in the future. Because i loved this car features, performance overall good from my point of view. It is already a high powered car which I see in my city. And the tune of this car makes me crazy. Beast on street
