For the AC issue, it probably because of the hot air melting the plastic bearing for switching cold/hot air. And for the repairing, Lotus UK needs to make an order to get the bearing from a Chinese factory then ship to England to pass the QC test. Then they will ship it from UK to NZ. Hope...

Welcome! Just curious, how much does emira cost in Singarepore? I heard a Tesla model 3 would cost more than 100,000 USD there.

Evaji and Mission X?

less than 5 i4s have been delivered so far and i believe some of them have been contacted by KOLs in the field. Hopefully we can see the reviews in a couple weeks.

congrats to this lucky guy, finally we can see a delivered i4

confirmed that it was the Lotus sales person(or driving coach?) was driving and trying to drift while the potential buyer is sitting in the passenger seat

I know im still half a year from getting my emira but I GOT THEM PREPARED

nice photo, same DV with red brake and interior. Im currently thinking turning the front lotus sign and wheel hub covers to the batman sign after i got my vehicle

im going DV anyway. Talked with my sales rep, if i change color I will lose my position in the line and Im thinking of changing to orange exterior after a year.

i heard that a small quantity of i4(less than 50) were shipped to China earlier June and will arrive in July. Most of them are for inspection, collision test and KOL testing. Customer delivery is delayed in China AGAIN

im guessing the type 134 will be delivered before them

the dollar will remain strong until the next recession.

Just speak from my own perspective, as someone who lives in the North for a long time, no matter it is hybrid or ICE, Lotus is just a summer toy. Comparing to the hybrid model, ICE would require a lot less time/money in maintenance and easier updates in the future(OTA from home). I still have my...

Latest update: my sales rep just told me my July-delivered emira might slide to Sep or Oct & Lotus Wuhan had sent some employees to Lotus UK to checkout the reasons.

looks like the Stanley Park

according to my experience sometimes its easier to go south to buy a vehicle in the States and then drive north

according to the statement of Lotus in my region, yes but i need to wait maybe another year for the new color

the oder of i4 will be re-open in late June or July. And the delivery of the order will start at the end of 2024 which indicate that Lotus is going to produce all current i4 models before 2025.

rumors in Chinese forums said: 1. it was a translation or conversion mistake; 2. the 400 hp is the limited edition in China. but who knows. Only 2 months from the first delivery in China and there will surely be reviews after July

i have no idea. Price of V6 in China is around 37000 USD higher than i4s.

just asked my sales person, as a Chinese buyer, i could change my exterior color to the 7 new colors(but will definitely lost my current place in the lane). However, I cannot change my spec anymore. I want to change to the universe black color but i can't get rid of the original black series pack

finger crossed...some of us even ordered before August 2021.

Im thinking of change my exterior color to universe black, but my wife still sticks with DV at the moment.

The main problem is that when are we going to see the 2.0T model

Latest update, angry emira owners in China rushed to the opening ceremony of Lotus dealership in Chengdu due to the delay of i4. Qingfeng, CEO of Lotus admitted that none of the i4 had started to build so far and there's little possibility to see them coming in Q2. We were told the problem was...

Great info. I heard the first i4s are going to be built in June

looking forwards to your information about i4. Plz update after your factory tour.

A sales person of Lotus China published in the local forum that first i4 was started to build in April 2023 and will be finalized before June. However, he deleted that msg after some time. Everything about i4 is still in the shadow. Hope the amg models will just jump out quietly like the auto v6...

lmao.

btw, anyone got any reimbursement or extra benefit from Lotus due to the delay last year?

now we are at Q2 2023 but still with no new updates from Lotus. I do see some ppl cancel their 2.0T emira in my region. Interesting to see how this will go to since Lotus and Geely promised last year that i4 will be delivered in the next 2 months

Holy, that's almost the same price as emira in China..which i thought was the most expensive place for sports cars

If so then some of us will need to wait 3 years to get their summer toy(hethel factory production rate at around 3k/year max)

Plz dun feel sorry for Geely. The big corp is pushing Lotus to be listed in Nasdaq very soon. I have just read their prospectus: their estimate revenue of 2023 is 2.2-2.4billion USD(from sale of eletre and emira). You can try to forecast the production of emira this year.

the total order # of emira was around 4k worldwide(b4 Nov 2022), then China contributed around 1200 of i4s in Nov. 22. Im not sure the total oder number of emira after all the delay and cancellation.

lmao. As a previous Geely employee（left Geely since they treat employees with poor beneift, no overtime payment and no vacation) who lived in China and Canada, Geely nor China is not the one to blame at this point. 1. From my source in the company, Geely is focusing 100% on Lotus EV based in...
