Launched back in 2023, the Lotus Emeya, an all-electric sedan, was poised to make a significant impact in the automotive world, challenging rivals like the Tesla Model S and the Porsche Taycan Turbo. Now available for bookings in Malaysia, this sleek and powerful car promises an exhilarating driving experience and advanced technology features.
Built on the Electric Premium Architecture (EPA) platform, a product of Geely’s Sustainable Experience Architecture (SEA), the Emeya boasts a 102 kWh battery pack, delivering an impressive range expected to rival the Eletre’s outstanding 600km range on the WLTP cycle. Despite its slightly smaller battery pack compared to the Eletre, the Emeya compensates with 350 kW of quick charging power. With a 350 kW DC fast charger, the Emeya can charge from 10 to 80 per cent in just 18 minutes, adding 150 km to its range in only five minutes.
Performance is a key highlight of the Emeya, featuring a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system generating 905hp and 985Nm of torque. Lotus claims the Emeya can accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in just 2.78 seconds, with a peak speed of 256km/h.
The Emeya’s bold and angular design language closely mirrors that of the Eletre, featuring sleek lighting units and a contoured hood for a distinctive aesthetic. Inside, the Emeya offers a host of technology innovations and sustainable materials, including a cutting-edge KEF 3D surround sound system with noise suppression technology and vibration sensors for enhanced audio quality. Luxurious materials such as Alcantara, ultra-fabric polyurethane, and Nappa leather adorn the interior, blending luxury with ecological consciousness.
With pricing expected to start from RM650,000, bookings for the Lotus Emeya in Malaysia are now open at the Lotus showroom in Pavilion Damansara, offering customers the opportunity to experience the future of electric luxury sedans firsthand.
