The British carmaker Lotus has launched its first product in India, the Eletre SUV at a starting price of Rs. 2.55 crore (ex-showroom). The all-electric hyper SUV is available in three options, namely, Eletre, Eletre S, and Eletre R. The model will be sold across the country via the brand’s official sale partner, Exclusive Motors, New Delhi.
On the outside, the Lotus Eletre has a very aggressive face with sleeker and arrow-shaped DRLs flanking the wide front profile. Then there’s a split headlamps setup with an active grille and wide air dams. The side profile is highlighted by a black-painted roof, chunky blacked-out wheel arches, and 22-inch 10-spoke alloy wheels. Meanwhile, customers can also opt for 20- and 23-inch alloy wheels.
At the rear, the most attractive design element is the full-length LED light bar connecting the tail lights. The supercar also gets a roof-mounted split spoiler, functional air dams, sloping roofline, and a blacked-out rear bumper.
As for the colour options, the Lotus Eletre can be had in six colour options - Natron Red, Galloway Green, Stellar Black, Kaimu Grey, Blossom Grey and Solar Yellow.
Inside, the cabin of the Lotus Eletre comes loaded with a 15.1-inch foldable touchscreen infotainment system with Lotus Hyper OS, four-zone climate control, 12-way electrically adjustable front seats, and a wireless charger. Also on offer are features such as an ADAS suite, air purifier, multi-colour ambient lighting, and a 15-speaker KEF-sourced sound system. The electric SUV can be had in four and five-seater configurations. Further, the interior theme can be customised in six different styles with 100 per cent recyclable materials.
