Australian pricing for the Lotus Emeya has been released as the first batch of demonstrator models arrive in local showrooms.
Order books and an online configurator are yet to open.
Previously, the Emeya was expected to be in Australia sometime during 2025, however, its arrival is six months ahead of schedule.
Priced from $189,990 before on-road costs in entry-level Emeya guise, the electric sedan rises to $209,990 for the Emeya S and $259,990 for the range-topping R.
The Emeya and Emeya S produce 450kW of power and 710Nm of torque, while the flagship Emeya R makes 675kW and 985Nm.
All versions of the Lotus Emeya feature an all-wheel drive layout, while the Emeya R’s rear motor has a two-speed transmission.
The Emeya R can accelerate from 0-100km/h in just 2.87 seconds, while the base Emeya and Emeya S take 4.15 seconds. For context, the Porsche Taycan Turbo S can do the 0-100km/h sprint in 2.8 seconds.
A 102kWh battery pack is standard across the range.
Both entry-level variants can travel between 498km and 600km depending on what wheels are fitted, and based on WLTP lab testing.The top-spec R variant manages just 434km to 484 km on a single charge.
