Got my car back and pparently all updates applied. Power bar still tops out at 360 :(

I would not put it past Lotus to have made all i4s from the beginning 400hp and not told anyone! O guess the question for those who are seeing 400hp after an update is does the car feel 40hp quicker!

Just floored the loaner I have (it is now run in I have had it so long!) topped out on the graph at 360 with the bar all the way to the right and would not go above so it looks like yours is definately different... in a good way!

Which dealer told you no run in is required.! Total BS so tread carefully as lotus would probably disagree if you have issues

Nor me. I do not rush it though and wait for the display on the dash to show N before pushing again to get R

Unregistered does not mean new though, who knows when the car was built and how long it has been hanging around? Quite a while I would imagine since paint bubbling does not seem to appear right away. As an i4 owner I am really hoping it is fixed!

Are you saying you cannot physically rev it above 5.5k before 400km? If so that is the first I have heard of it (I have an i4 so genuinely do not know about the V6)?

Not me. Lotus Colchester said follow the book. I would not want to argue with lotus over warranty if there was an issue. They do log revs used etc.

Thanks. So just to clarify, if you start the car and the handbrake is on you can drive off (forward or reverse) without having to push the handbrake forward?

Thanks. It actually puts a message on the main screen saying disengage handbrake before moving on. I’ll check the settings again

On my new i4 handbrake does not aoutomatically come off in reverse or forward. Should it? Auto handbrake is set to on

Picked up my i4 yesterday. Same issue. I assumed that the i4 would have the fixes already but apparently not!

Sadly it would be a very lotus thing to do though. I have just reserved a car that is new in stock from Colchester and the 360hp thing did give me pause. I do wonder though if the uk cars have been running the 400hp mp all along and they have just been downgrading the numbers to differentiate it...

I do wonder if they have updated it as I noticed no lag, certainly not .5 of a second between pressing the paddle and it changing. Maybe I am just not sensitive to such things?

Have you driven an i4?
