Also in common is Lotus’s electric motor design, which combines the controller and the driveshaft-linking reducer to keep the unit as compact as possible. The Eletre deploys a motor on both front and rear axles for all-wheel drive, with the standard and S model yielding 450kW , while the R spins out 675kW .
Lotus describes the Eletre as a hyper SUV, believing it to be in a performance league unmatched by rivals such as the BMW iX M60.
