Lotus, renowned for its precision engineering and commitment to innovation, has achieved a groundbreaking milestone with its first electric hyper-GT, the Emeya. The Emeya has shattered records by achieving an unprecedented charging time, going from 10% to 80% battery capacity in a mere 14 minutes when using a 400-kW (600A capable) DC fast charger. This remarkable feat positions the Emeya as one of the fastest-charging electric vehicles (EVs) available on the market today.
The Emeya's record-breaking charging time was independently validated by the leading global consulting firm P3, whose 2023 Charging Index for Asia ranked the Emeya as the fastest-charging EV among a lineup of global electric vehicles, including prestigious brands like Mercedes, BMW, Tesla, and others.
Lotus' vision with the Emeya extends beyond performance; it aims to redefine the EV ownership experience by providing drivers with the confidence to embark on long-distance journeys with ease. The Emeya not only boasts exceptional charging speed but also achieves a peak charging power of 402 kW, resulting in an average charging power of 331 kW between 10% and 80% battery state of charge. Additionally, with a WLTC energy consumption of 18.7 kWh/100 km, the Emeya can gain up to 310 km of range in just 10 minutes.
Key to the Emeya's fast-charging capabilities is Lotus' innovative cell-to-back battery structure, which allows for 20% more cells to be packaged in the same space compared to standard module architecture. Moreover, the Emeya features a cutting-edge cooling system architecture designed to enhance battery thermal performance and efficiency.
Qingfeng Feng, CEO at Lotus Group, expressed pride in the Emeya's industry-leading charging technology, emphasizing its role in providing drivers with unparalleled confidence and convenience. Lotus is committed to delivering a fully integrated charging ecosystem, collaborating with industry leaders like Bosch and Mobilize to ensure easy access to reliable charging solutions.
Through partnerships with Bosch and Mobilize Power Solutions, Lotus owners gain access to a vast network of public chargers across Europe, complemented by home charging solutions for added convenience. The Lotus Cars app and Charging Card streamline the charging experience, offering drivers seamless access to charging networks and real-time vehicle monitoring.
Looking ahead, Lotus is future-proofing its technology with the development of ultra-fast 450 kW DC chargers and modular charging solutions designed to accommodate state-of-the-art 800-volt charging systems. These advancements align with Lotus' vision to become an all-electric global performance brand by 2028, with the Emeya leading the charge as the company's first electric hyper-GT.
Emeya represents the pinnacle of Lotus' engineering prowess, blending rich heritage with cutting-edge technology to set a new standard for luxury electric vehicles. With customer deliveries underway in China and forthcoming availability in the UK and Europe, the Emeya heralds a new era of electrifying performance and unmatched driving pleasure.
