- Mat’s finally got his hands on the Lotus Eletre!
The Eletre is the first Lotus SUV ever created, and Mat’s about to find out if this all-electric Lotus has what it takes to compete with EV competitors like the Tesla Model X Plaid!
For starters, let’s check out the looks. From the front end, there’s a sloping bonnet and a whole host of vents, and if anything it reminds us a bit of the Lamborghini Urus! However, unlike the Urus, every vent you can see on this car serves a purpose - there’s no fakery here! Moving down the side you’ll note there are black surrounds around the windows and on the side mirrors, and around the back, there’s a pair of small spoilers, a bootlip spoiler and a few more vents to help improve efficiency.
Step inside and the good looks continue! The interior has a sporty feel to it, with high-quality materials found throughout the cabin. There are a number of physical switches which feel pretty sturdy, and even the smallest areas or buttons are made to feel expensive. What’s more, there’s a choice of three screens - a small digital dial display for the driver, a huge infotainment screen, and then a small screen for the passenger to use.
The quality continues through to the back seats, too, where there’s the option to add two sports seats similar to what you’ll find in the front! These can also be electrically operated.
There will be two versions of the Eletre on sale, and both come with dual motors and a 112kWh battery. The entry-level Eletre & Eletre S can produce 603hp, while the range-topping Eletre R can produce 905hp! What’s more, the R should be able to hit 60mph in under 3 seconds! When it comes to price, the Eletre starts from £89,500, rising up to £120,000 for the R edition.
But is it worth it? And should you choose it over the likes of a Tesla Model X Plaid? Stick with Mat and see for yourself!

Lotus accidentally discovered how to make the car more fun with that rear wheel steering bug😂
Not a bug, but a feature! lol
🐛🐛🐛🐛 8-))...
@@TheEchelon its a bug when it happens that isnt supposed to
Yes but the joke is the idea of playing an unplanned bug off as a "totally planned" feature
Chinese electric car, Chinese CCP owned company. Lotus being used to steal UK engineering knowledge. China repeatedly threaten the UK. 1 million Uyghurs is Detention centres. An entire ethnicity imprisoned illegally. Democracy in Hong Kong destroyed.
That interior is how it should be done. Physical buttons where they should be, a good screen, quality interior, and the interior design definitely the best from all the EV's ive seen. Putting this car on my short list to purchase.
The colours are terrible though...
Check out Nio or Zeekr SUVs. Fisker and Rivian both have great designs as well.
A Lotus with a Bentley interior! That's just Class!!!
looks like it was designed by a 7 year old girl.
@@stevehartley7504 it’s a Wuhan made car. It’ll fall off or spontaneously combust in the first two years after purchase. It’s not a Lotus. Glitzy, looks great, but not actually that great. The only think so insanely durable and long lasting coming out of Wuhan is the wuhan virus.
For me this car smashes the competition. What a great car. Attention to detail is amazing!
As an owner of KEF speakers and knowing how amazing they sound in the home, can only imagine just how substantial the sound is in the car with that setup. Really nice and modern design to the cabin too.
I mean, for this kind of money, it far exceeds other SUV in the current market, I really like it personally. If I had the opportunity to acquire this one, I'd do it in a heartbeat
Tesla x is cheaper, more seats and higher performance.
@@thesaifcreations9111 its not higher in performance,it is just quicker,lotus far exceeds in performance everywhere else,also lotus has better driving dynamics,better interior better looks and more heritage
@@thesaifcreations9111 Only higher performance in a Straight Line and not need to stop any time soon.
@@thesaifcreations9111 Tesla is cheaply made. Being fast in a straight line isn't that interesting.
@The Echelon I was just about to say that. Tesla aren't really about quality, more quantity. Look at the Model X Brakes, safety first right?
9:44 "Oh. I think the car is pleased to see me".
Love Mat. That line had me chuckling.
🤣
😂😂I though I was the only one who heard that
Lmao
I really burst out laughing at that!!! 😂
Matt is too horny
Lmaoo
This performance combined with that much space and that high built quality is just awesome.
I've seen one on the road for a test drive and it looks very special and insane.
Lotus delivered although so many ppl cried about them building another SUV
I sat in this car around Zandvoort Circuit last year. Absolutely amazing car. The attention to detail, the driving, the music installation. But the one thing that really did it for me where the design and feel of the buttons in this car. Its just perfect. If I where looking for a new car in this price range it would be up there!
2.99 second 0-60 is crazy to get your mind wrapped around despite how heavy this is. I wonder what its drag coefficient is???
It’s as fast as a super bike can get to 60 due to physics of the front lifting. 3 flat is very fast. Actually most riders on super bikes do quarter mile in around same time as this truck does. Sure a pro will do mid 9s but damn. Fast
And yet the plaid model x is even faster and has been available for 2 years now. Plus it can seat 6 or 7 adults. 😎
@@damonm3 Most new liter bikes do the 1/4 from 9.2 to 9.9. Older liter bikes did it in the mid 10’s.
@@damonm3 the acceleration is also as fast as even the 1985 Peugeot 205 Turbo 16 Evo 2.
@@4literv6 or even Mitsubishi MIEV?
I love that they made the wheel arches round instead of the ugly trend to square them. Over all I like the design of it inside and out.
I haven't seen any such trend...
It's a banger 🔥
trend ? give some examples
The new bmw xm's have ugly squared wheel arches.
The new dacia and skoda both have the same new trend of squaring up the wheel arches.
Love the UI on the center screen! REALLY NICE!
It's an awesome car
Love the design, and the interior is brilliant
Woah, Lotus. This car is actually REALLY good! 😂Potentially best SUV in its class
Chinese electric car, Chinese CCP owned company. Lotus being used to steal UK engineering knowledge. China repeatedly threaten the UK. 1 million Uyghurs is Detention centres. An entire ethnicity imprisoned illegally. Democracy in Hong Kong destroyed.
Lotus SUV seemingly gonna go full electric.
@@purwantiallan5089Do you have brain leakage?
Its chinese car nyo overpised and using lotus name. The same car that get in flames occasionally on the CCP parades
@@ksm1985 that's just your opinion but ok.
that’s a futuristic yet somehow traditionally luxurious interior. Exterior seems kinda weird looking but that interior is 10/10
The paint itself is amazing
Such hideous design, inside and out
The exterior looks like a Ferrari.
@@martinqizeaq maybe a Ferrari made by Toyota. Or Citroen.
@Noel 718 The interior is another copy of the Tesla Model 3 interior.
The best electric SUV and all-round electric car I've seen so far. Competition is heating up. I also love the fact that Lotus also included shortcut physical buttons to things like climate control. Just shows that Lotus is listening to the general preference out there in regard to physical buttons vs having that in touch screens/software.
I do have a lotus Elise s1 I love lotus philosophy and this is definitely a car I would consider buying.
Never been into electric cars too much, but this one is very nice - lots of very good features, nice build, nice space. I like it!
The same reason why I like Holden HSV Supercharged V8s is the same reason why I like Pure Electric Cars. The reasons why I hate some ICE cars especially 4 Bangers is the same reason why I hate the 100% Petrol powered Toyota Prius. Funny how things actually work in reality and not based on misconceptions.
@@Neojhun Ren Hazuki, one of the characters from Liella also loves electric cars like this Lotus Eletre.
I raised an eyebrow the first time this car came up but, damn, it seems Lotus absolutely nailed it from every reasonable perspective. Also mad props to the interior.
It’s definitely practical and luxurious, I like that but not the materials or the colours👎👎.
@@SwiftTelly20 you surely have more settled colors
@@msm4445 Having wild colors is way better than the drab greys and blacks of other manufacturers. Look at Rolls Royce, Aston Martin, Ferrari, or even Bugatti and Pagani. The highest end clients have more varied taste than the middle class.
It depends on how the car is designed really. For an angler car it can work just fine.
Lotus absolutely nailed it? Its a badging exercise. Even Mat is standing outside the chinese factory!
That greeen thoo!!!!! At first I loved the purple interior but didn't feel quite my match, then the green was perfect, imagining it outside with some orange/blue paint 🎨 then the exterior green was perfect too
I loved the interior of that car, and with that kind of speed I expected the price tag to be twice as much. Of course I'll never have one until it's half that price. I hope it's reliable though, all those little things messing up a bit makes me think reliability will be a concern. However, lotus has always been great Fun to drive
So its a well build, practical Lotus SUV!? Sounded strange when it was shown the first time, but now seems REALLY good! But how can you so easily gloss over the 60W USB-C charger in the back? That's so amazing to finally see, so one can actually charge a Laptop in the back without any annoying dongle or adapter!
Yes, i noticed that rare feature too
It’s a Lotus by name only. It’s a Zeekr. I live in China, looks very similar inside and out.
@@benfinesilver2250 talking about Zeekr, i like the Zeekr X's funky styling and interior
@@notagain2856 Chinese electric vehicles exist (and indeed all their technology) because the Chinese government does not allow the sale of foreign technology without being given the IP. It’s all ripped off from Tesla. That’s the true reason why Tesla has open IP for anyone to use. They have to give it up in a trade with China to sell there…and they sell loads of Teslas.
Geely manufactures Zeekr and Lotus in Wuhan. It’s a Geely, not a Lotus. Zeekr is basically their Chinese fancy brand offshoot. Costs peanuts here, as to X-peng and a whole host of ripped off technology e-car brands
@@notagain2856 Expect the forthcoming Lotus Type 134 smaller SUV to be based on that very car...😉
The amount of luxury, quality and performance you get from that price is actually insane. Potentially the best SUV on market
Did you smoke your breakfast? This car is absolute shit.
It’s super expensive
Lotus has some really fantastic cars in their lineup right now. I hope the quality is on par!
One of your best reviews. Awesome content
I`ve driven the final production version on the public road for like 100km and it is ASTONISHING. Besides it has plenty plenty plenty of power (which is the least important feature of Eletre), the ride quality, the quietness, the brake feeling, all are TOP. Especially the NVH control, just AMAZING. I would say the noise number is around W223 level, if you`ve driven one, you would totally agree with me. It`s like combined with the luxury of S-Klasse and the handling of M5. There is a common problem for EV which is the braking pedal feeling. In the most EVs it feels soft, unsolid, hard to control it precisly. but it is NOT a problem in Eletre. No doubt it`s the BEST brake I`ve ever had in a EV, and it`s better than the most normal ICE cars.
I seriously started to replace my W222 with this one in the upcoming months. Brilliant design, it looks gorgeous.
Bro what do you do for a living?
@@adamal9560 damn just went for a test drive that everyone could do :))
@@mcmitonet8032 really how through their website?
@@adamal9560yessijr
That paintwork looks amazing!
Be careful to touch it it is made in Wuhan , China. Do you know where covid-19 came from? Wuhan, China!!
Raspberry pink on Magenta interior!!! Only in China would that combo be on sale. European bound Lotus models will only come in much more boring color combos.
@@tren133 i feel like china always get the most exclusive kinds of colors or just other countries other than the US
I liked the Jade green one more tho
Even the colors look super high quality
Nice to see an electric Lotus!! Good to see how good it looks, great to tell what things are really like!! The question is if it’s a true Lotus!!
I'm so happy to see Lotus coming back with all these good looking and sexy cars and now this SUV.....SWEET!!!
Can't wait to see it on the road!!
Great review Mat 👏👏
One thing though, i think the side camera can be hidden inside the side vent instead of exposing it as is now!!
Honestly I was REALLY skeptical about Lotus doing an SUV, not to mention an electric SUV. But with this, they've cracked it and hit the nail on the head. Fantastic looking car and good to see they haven't spoiled handling!
It’s Geely not Lotus
@@ZX-mg5xs Geely?😂
Same. Was ready to roll my eyes but came out impressed. Not bad at all.
@@purwantiallan5089 poor IQ🦍， to google Knowledge，Lotus has nothing ，Only one logo left，All technologies are supported by Geely, If Lotus is any other technology that needs to be mentioned, just tire tuning
@@ZX-mg5xs geely provide the funds and let lotus do everything from design to development and manufacturing, just like how tata doing with land rover.
That purple pearlescent type colour is stunning! And the interior with those single rear seats looks amazing. I’d have one if I had the money!
The only thing Lotus on this is the badge. Well done Geeley 😂
Poor old Colin Chapman must be spinning in his grave faster than the electric motors in this. He was all about lightness and agility and this while being very fast is 2700kg and Big. The brakes and tires may be coping admirably but you can't get away from the laws of physics.
With the badges around the car proclaiming Chapman's heritage because NYO has none, you would have thought that Lotus of all people (or the Chinese owners Geely) would have brought us a lightweight performance EV but they seem to have fallen into the same trap and just made another massive, expensive SUV. So in this case, the fruit has fallen a very long way from the tree and probably rolled several fields away. Looks and seems to perform great but should it really be wearing a Lotus badge?
Perfectly put! The thing is hideous, too!
As Mat said, this is just like the Porsche Cayenne. The Cayenne saved Porsche from bankruptcy. So this Eletre is a way to fill the pockets of Lotus to be able to make other sport cars like the Evija and the Emira… Lotus is just diversifying, but they still have their light weight sport cars. For my situation, this car is more suitable for me and my family than any other sport car, so I don’t care if it’s not light. For me it’s a family luxury car with a sport edge to it… So it does the job and at the same time it’s more fun to drive than other family cars!!
@@msm4445 Lotus said the Emira would be the last car with ICE. :(
yet another big heavy suv that takes loads of energy to move from a to b...
@@fernetcetc buy a dacia, it’s cheaper, consumes less and does the job. This is a luxury sport vehicle, so yes it’s heavy, and yes it consumes, but people don’t buy it for its efficiency !!
Massive win for Lotus. By far the best car in its segment.
Nah. Can’t spell lotus without L 🤡🤣🤣🤣 bro this piece of Garbage is Chinese made, since when is Lotus Chinese? This video is nothing but commie Propaganda.
True, but I would get the iX M60 instead if that ugly grill was different!
Not a lotus!!!!
That is the best looking interior i've seen in a long time. Wow.
the infotainment display is so fluid ❤
Awesome looking machine, especially in that green 😮
The inside was really good
Fantastic vehicle, interior design is spot on, individual rear seating is fantastic …… very impressive….. yes please !
What is impressive I read that it's lighter than Urus and Cayyene which is mind blowing how they did that in an EV
A lotus suv? This goes against everything lotus stands for ! What next Caterham suv ! This stupid suv craze has to end soon .
@@paulthomson9014 yoz mean like the ferrari and lamborghini suv? Lmao
Everybody makes suv these days, cause they sell the best.
@@paulthomson9014 lotus is a completely different company now
plus SUV's are a very profitable market
@Patrice Bernhard lambo just rebodied audi and the ferrari just a monstrosity. Yeh people buy them because they're nothing more than fashion accessories, I just want it to end and go back to desirable cars again.
Wow I never expected this from Lotus. Beautiful car I must say!
Because it's not really a lotus it's a chinese Geely
Looks incredible too luv the shark nose look 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Well. This explains why Mat Watson was in Shanghai Auto Show. He was invited by Lotus to review this electric SUV in China.

Lol good one
Really not a fan of electric cars but what lotus has been doing lately both with petrol cars like Lotus Emira & this electric SUV Lotus Eletre has really made me think about looking into electric SUVs. For that price, the quality of both the interior & exterior it's a great package & if I was searching for an electric car this would be it. Wow Lotus keep the great work
Ren Hazuki and Kanon Shibuya both are a fan of electric cars.
@@purwantiallan5089 Nobody asked
I bet it is really lovely and if I had the money, I would definitely buy it. But, as Jeremy Clarkson once said with the Citroen C6, watch it flop.
The sad part is Emira is their very last car with internal combustion engine, they'll just focus on only EV (most of the EVs are literal boats, which goes against Colin Chapman's ideology of Lotus).
@@AHondaCivicEX They have to. No ICE cars allowed from 2030.
Looks great and has the bells and whistles without being stupid (Merc massive screens eg). As long as that steering click isn't something breaking or really is due preprod, then looks fine. The rear wheel steering sounds like character you should get used to and master.
Okay, my new dream car! Great job Lotus!!!! :)
That green interior 🔥 🔥 🔥
This is definitely my favourite SUV currently on sale right now 🙌
Great job Lotus 👏
*comment paid for by China* 🤡
It's like sayung it's your favorite wart
I wasn’t an SUV type guy, until now. Love this car! Great job lotus! 🎉
I'm ever so glad that Lotus have done a good job on ensuring all of the switches and knobs inside the vehicle are manufactured from quality materials, as we all know by now just how much Matt does enjoy touching a knob or two.
All the parts are geely parts not lotus.
*Its amzing how so many companies have taken the front end styling of the Nissan Juke*
I'm surprised at how good this is. Well done Lotus
you should said well done geely wuhan. design by lotus uk, build in wuhan
My favorite EV SUV I've ever seen good job lotus 👍
Long time watcher, first time poster. Your a lucky man. The amount of money people pay to have it drive itself while watching a sat nav boxset boggles my brain.
I like it. It’s looks crazy, it’sfast, but seems like a comfortable daily driver too. Well done, Lotus!
It's utterly ugly. Its an SUV, heavy as fuck, handles weirdly, no soul or sportiness and yeah probably a good daily driver. All the things you don't want from a Lotus. Perfect.
@@karuzo4116You must have absolutely not watched the fucking video? Being ugly is subjective I think it looks damn fine, matt also just said that it handles well and you could see it for sure, last 2 notes are just something 0 electric cars can ignore so Il do the same with u
@@karuzo4116this car is just the breadwinner for Lotus to make cooler cars
@@karuzo4116
You’ll never be in the market to buy one, so there’s no need to be nasty lol. Business sell to make money, not to satisfy broke “car enthusiasts”
@josephquinto5812 Ah yes, a wealthy distinguished gentleman. I have an idea for you. What if we, as a society, stop talking about art, music, food, watches and jewelry, cars, architecture, clothing and so on. After all, those are things made to be sold and many of them, especially those falling in the luxury sector (like this ugly lotus SUV), are unobtainable for the very most of us. Sounds like a dumb idea? That's because it is.
So why do you exactly defend the design of a car you will never buy?
Some really great features, loving the air vents blue for cold, red for hot, all the storage, drink holders etc etc. well done Lotus
The seat colour didn’t jar?
I haven't seen a Lotus on the roads for the longest time.
I sincerely hope that changes, because their latest range of cars is truly impressive.
Really good looking car, and really hope that paint will be part of production too, love the colour. Hopefully they make enough to match the demand so they can be cheaper on used market in a few years
Man, getting a recent second hand, would be an incredible buy if the quality is right. That’s an insane price for a beautiful car.
It looks sooo good in that green color 😍
I ABSOLUTELY love the interior color schemes!!
Yep. Reminded me to the one from Juiced 2.
Perfect lines, cool torso I like it!
that paintjob ... love it
Lotus is really making moves. 👏👏👏
A lotus suv? What next? A Caterham minivan? 😁
entire thing is just a tube frame with some seats in it lmao
Incredibly beautiful!
Didn’t know this thing was this small but it’s really cool
Great video as always! Looks spectacular in that silver with the red hints in the paint, but my gut continues to tell me that green is the way to go (but not with the green interior; that's a little too much green for me).
I have one of the first 4 of these coming to South Florida on reserve. Really looking forward to seeing what reviewers think of the final production model and I can't wait for it to hit the US next year. But more than that, I look forward to finally sitting in the car I will have waited some 2 years to have. Until then, back to saving my pennies. Go Lotus, go! 🚀🚀
Agree.
I think you will be getting an incredible car! Nice!
i'd definitely pick this over any Eq mercedes or ix bmw, it's a good value for money
I think SUV is gorgeous love the interior and styling of the exterior. I think they’re on to a winner here 👍🏿🖤
Stunning. Whod have thought pink seats would look good. If i had that kinda money id get one, sadly Mrs Jones in her Chelsea tractor wont even know it exists.
Glad to finally see an English review and someone driving it, very happy Matt liked it as I have an R on order with July Delivery - It is always scary ordering a car without test driving it - Thank you carwow
I CANT WAIT !!
buy a fire extinguisher bcs this actually its rebrandet chinese car nyo and they like to go in fire for CCP parades
I'll bet you can't! You'll have to come back with an updated comment once you've had it for a couple of weeks. TBH it does look like it ticks all the boxes and is indeed the kind of car one would be tempted to order unseen. I want something that will pretty much do everything i.e. cope with horrible rural country roads, something that my wife will be ok driving, that I can chuck the dogs (and mother-in-law) in the back and that I can have some fun with. I was toying with the idea of a 4S Cross Turismo for my next car but this has got me thinking........

I reckon Chapman would hate this, he’d have to make a stripped down version with nothing but the skateboard chassis and one driver seat!
“Simplify, and add lightness!”
I was about to say, all these praises in the comment section and yet Colin Chapman himself is rolling in his grave.
2.7 (oh sorry only shy of 2 for the R) tons does not a Lotus make.

This was probably the best car review I’ve ever watched. An unbearable amount of comments, but nonetheless all of them were absolutely spot on.

This is a shockingly, confusingly good effort from Lotus. It’s expensive but there are plenty of others in that price range and this looks like it may best them all. It may have an issue keeping up with demand
I would get one of these over a Tesla. Sure, the Tesla is 780 milliseconds faster to the quarter mile at 130 mph which I always like to do in a school zone. But I know that if I take it to the continental mainland and drive it in Italy or Germany, I won't die after a second high-speed slowdown as I would in a Tesla thanks to its pipecleaner-armed, 100 lb-weakling, atrophied Mini-Minor brakes. Teslas should be banned in Europe until they figure out how to engineer them properly.
The fact that it is based on the same platform and tech used in Volvo's EX90 and Polestar 3 makes it really interesting how same base can be modified into completely different cars.
You said that Volvo Polestar uses Geely's sub-brand zeekr and other new-energy electric vehicle technologies and platforms.
Lotus is completely its own platform
I haven't seen KEF in car audio yet. nice to see
Not a fan of that front end design but the quality of materials, the interior, practicality and performance for that price. Off the bat this looks like it's going to be great car overall with those kinks ironed out
A few friends have recently received tickets for very minor speed infringements of late (34 mph, 23 mph, so easily done without meaning to), makes all this power totally irrelevant. If only we had access to private roads like you do.
Sadly all the backroads around Hethel now have these speed restrictions...The days of how fast you could get from Lotus to New Buckenham are a distant memory...😉
Matt: I’ll just remove this load cover……😅 wait a minute…..ur supposed to throw it Matt 😂come on…that’s ur identity 😂
He wants to make sure he gets invited back to China again. Coward, I know, but polite and respectful of our new Chinese overlords.
Amazing review and an amazing achievement for Lotus. Can't say I like those black wheels but otherwise where do I sign (and get the money from)?
Beautiful SUV and a Lotus, bring out the hand cream 😊
Been in one last month and wow that car looks and feels great. Just not been able to drive it
I’m not an SUV person at all but I’d buy this 💯 😍
You know what you just said makes no sense?
