lol the seats look like an absolute joke. From fit to finish, uneven layers, saggy bolsters…. Even to have them in a car that will be showcased and photographed to the world to see across social media platforms these days. Lotus genuinely have zero clue. Or an attitude close enough is good...

Yep that’s what they are saying. For me don’t care if it does it in 3.5 sec. Most cars don’t ever achieve those numbers unless conditions are perfect. Also the only manufacturer that always under quotes are Porsche and hence deliver claims.

Totally agree mate. I know the licence holder for Lotus importation in Australia was there last week for the international dealer conference. I’m calling him later to day to get a clear outline of what’s happening exactly as I was a very early deposit holder for the Emira and now Eletre. Let...

Thanks for posting. Yet another car that sits totally different to others we’ve seen. We don’t even know what we are going to get 🤦🏻‍♂️🤣.

I agree what was the point of being first to order. They are using covid lockdowns as a BS excuse. That only happened after March when they were saying we are on time and no delays. Again heart in the right place, but a niche company pretending to be everything they are not. Poor execution at...

I agree mate. I believe they do it to cover themselves over a 3 months period. Cheeky and so you can’t say oh it’s late June vs end end August 2022 for V6 FE.

My understanding it’s always been Winter as described on the Aus site. First cars arriving by end July to mid August, first allocation of 20 cars. Then the rest. The website has never stated otherwise for the FE V6.

Mate Mate don’t even bother, just block his content as I have and move on. He only knows best and is in love with Lotus that everything is pioneering and amazing. As I said we get it please stop 🛑🤣🤣🤣. Block & move on.

You don’t mate, you’re an early adopter as with all new car models. That’s why they have given you the option to cancel your order. State of the world accept or buy another car you can see & touch per say.

M Mate you are on a lotus forum what did you expect 😆. Emira is god and Lotus communication is awful, that’s the whole forum in itself 🤦🏻‍♂️🤣…

Ask your dealer and find out. Only way to know.

Can you please ask about the V6 IPS automatic gearbox. What changes if any have been made to it from the Evora 410 application? Thank you very much for your kind offer.

A Are you talking about the manual or auto gearbox?

Totally agree the car looks wrong. Very disappointing as the Evora sat amazing throughout its life cycle…

Mate it’s simple they genuinely have no idea and it all starts from the top. Nice people but they are kids playing in an grown mans world per say.

How do we know it’s the latest engine in the Lotus vs the old one ☝️ not updated with all the above.

M Mate we know you are a huge Lotus fan boy. There’s no need to always defend them at every opportunity and to wits end. They said nothing new is all he was saying. You’d think you’re the MD of lotus 🤣🤣🤣…

I understand everyone’s point of view. We get on the forum to chat and vent. This is widespread across the whole industry, especially with so many variables at the moment globally. For example, Tesla has sold a million plus cyber trucks with zero updates. In Australia Tesla have even removed...

Hey mate these prices are on the website. I also suggest you contact the dealer as well. All prices are listed on the simply sports cars website as well.

Great taste that has been my spec from day one ☝️…

Mate I got the black forged wheels and have 100000% confidence in the fact they will look amazing. Sorry but don’t believe it unless you see it with your eyes as they say.

It definitely won’t have it

Absolutely concur champ… Enjoy the new beast….

Such a positive member. You will be missed 🙂. Congrats 🎉 on the new car purchase.

Prices are in AUD not USD.

At 300k they won’t sell many at all. Lotus haven’t established themselves at all in Aus. My opinion if they have my chance is to come in at 250k fully loaded….

God help up when we get the pricing for the new Eletre 🤣

You bought the plate but not the car… 🤣

Absolutely it’s has been a big flop in many countries and the back just looks terrible in my opinion.

There’s EV breaks for all states. But given the price point of the Eletre, it won’t get any benefits at all. The car/suv must be sub 70k which makes it null and void for most cars outside a Tesla model 3 base and polstar 2…. Typical government useless policies mate… Lotus Aus need to be careful...

Yet it has been an extremely poor selling suv in Australia…

I hope this isn’t it as it looks very average. Been told it was what the Lamborghini Urus should have been, and that is mehhhhh at best. I’ll be getting my deposit back immediately. Crazy they couldn’t keep it under wraps before the reveal…

I absolutely concur with all you said. The gt4rs is a technical masterpiece or so called finale for the combustion engine. With all the know how of a global automotive benchmark in my opinion. Congrats 🎉 on both rides by the way…

That’s an awesome right up mate. Sounds like it was a brilliant time had at the Lotus HQ. So to confirm Adas is fitted as said but not enabled? That sounds a bit bizarre to me. Or was it a typo?

The same reason Ferrari limit the number of cars this manufacture per annum. To drive more brand value, equity and desirability. Hence, why Porsche residuals are so strong on their GT and RS cars.

That’s correct only sports cars will be made at Hethel. All electric suvs and upcoming coupe are at Wuhan factory.

Mate I wouldn’t say it if it wasn’t 100% from the head of Lotus Cars Australia whom only was there 4 weeks ago. I believe so much in what Lotus are doing I have placed a sight unseen deposit in the new type 132 as well. Yes they have provided zero info which is not how I would run my business...

T I know for 100% the seats are brought in finished. They are supplied from the same manufacturer whom supplies the Ferrari seats. They have had 7 differing iterations but the final seat is settled upon and has only/will only be installed in final production cars. Have faith they will be...

Easy cancel your order and everyone else who’s sick of it 🤣🤣🤣. Plenty will be happy to get theirs sooner. It’s just a car lol and much bigger things in the world per say…

Hmmm that’s not good whatever the reason.
