2025 Lotus Emira: Adding Fuel to the Lineup


Listen Later

Lotus is making a massive push for its battery-electric powertrains, with the vast majority of its lineup eschewing internal combustion. That said, there is still one ICE-powered Lotus in the portfolio that carries the name Emira. Taking what the brand has learned from its Elise, Exige, and Evora, the Emira sticks with the brand’s sports car ethos. Powering the Emira is either a supercharged 3.5-liter V6 or a turbocharged 2.0-liter I4. Despite the difference in cylinders, both engines advertise 400 hp. That said, if you want to row your own gears, you’ll have to look at V6.

On this episode of Quick Spin, Autoweek’s Mark Vaughn hops behind the wheel of the 2025 Lotus Emira and puts it through its paces. Vaughn takes you on a guided tour of the Lotus Emira and highlights some of his favorite features. Later, Vaughn takes you along for a live drive review of this Lotus. Adding to these segments, Vaughn chats with host Wesley Wren about the Lotus Emira, Lotus’s electric endeavors, and more. Closing the show, the pair breaks down what makes the Emira special.
