Lotus Reviews
Current models
Lotus Eletre 2023 review
The Eletre is an entirely new kind of Lotus: a Chinese-built electric SUV that majors on performance and in-car technology. We drive it.
Lotus Emeya 2024 review
The new Lotus Emeya is a luxurious and searingly quick electric saloon aimed squarely at the Porsche Taycan. Tim Pitt drives it.
Lotus Emira I4 2024 review
Tim Pitt drives the new four-cylinder Lotus Emira I4. Does an exotic AMG engine and dual-clutch gearbox make for a better sports car?
Lotus Emira V6 2022 review
The new Emira is the last petrol-powered Lotus sports car. How does it measure up to the Porsche 718 Cayman and Alpine A110?

Lotus has given the Evora more power and less weight – and created one of the most competent cars ever to come from Norfolk

Lotus is determined the Exige is going to go out in style – as the world's fastest B-road machine
