    US I4 (400hp) has fake engine noise pumped through speakers

    ...because at volume the additional frequency causes the audio system to be over modulated - hence the bass levels get that old speaker papery slapping sound. When I say "at volume" I mean like half way up. Sounds like an old cheap 90's Hyundai stock system with the bass jacked and the volume...

    Chronic electrical issues on late 2024 build I4 First edition

    I can't remember exactly which ones, but when I took mine in for the first service (2/28) there were new updates, and I am almost positive the DIM and the IHU updates were brand new.. but don't take that as gospel..

    Chronic electrical issues on late 2024 build I4 First edition

    Do you know if you have had the DIM update applied? Supposedly, that is specifically for the breaking system(s), per the Lotus Tech I have spoken with.

    What did you do to your Emira today?

    Oh, on the screen - I don't believe it, and like I said it didn't last long. But I routinely get a reading above 430mi range after fill up on the tank reading. So its definitely getting pretty good gas milage..and I don't try to baby it at all..

    What did you do to your Emira today?

    Did a drive out in the country (wife also in the car), 55-60mph and hit 49mpg - I was shocked. It didn't last long, as it was a nice bendy road and fun driving took over.:ROFLMAO:

    Chronic electrical issues on late 2024 build I4 First edition

    For you guys with the USB issues, is all of your software up to date? Just curious. I have a couple of niggles, as stated, but I also know there are 5 updates that need to be applied. Boggles me that we can't easily get version numbers and release notes for the fixes included said versions.

    Clucking sound interior over bumps

    Did you actually solve this? Saw your post in the "What did you do to your Emira" thread where you posted "So today I finally got the headliner to stop making noise after 400 miles.." Please tell me you found the answer...🙏

    Exotic Car Owner's Code of Conduct

    Can I get some of those hand outs? I had a guy ask me while filling up "..is that the new Lexus?" :ROFLMAO: I don't even know what the look on my face was, I am guessing it was haughty derision - but I answered "No, its a Lotus.."

    Emira insurance in the US

    Progressive, only the Emira in Palm Beach, no restrictions, covered wife and myself, $1200yr. and that's lower than my Rubicon with USAA. I will add that we both have clean driving records, and as a piece of advice - opt out of the Snapshot option for the $90yr rate discount - I did a side by...

    Anyone having trunk issues?

    WARNING: *TRIGGERED*: If you are doing CPR the AED won't shock - because there is no pulse, so no danger of electrocution. It drives me nuts when I see the "medical professionals" on TV shocking a flat line (asystole).. That never happens... (venting complete - :ROFLMAO:) **now back to our...

    Anyone having trunk issues?

    I set the trunk lock with my thumb, with the trunk still open, lay the wire over the rear and then gently rest the trunk lid on the already latched mechanism (it holds the trunk lid high enough to allow the wire through comfortably). This way I can lock the car with the key fob, ensuring its...

    Clucking sound interior over bumps

    Wonder if the same 1/16in rubber edging that I used for seat to protect the leather from scratching would work? Or is the headliner thicker, and maybe needs a wider channel?

    US I4 (400hp) has fake engine noise pumped through speakers

    I am with you @Kaz - I ran my own simple experiment with music while in sport - with the music loud, and in sport, the subwoofer (bass) sounds are very over modulated and that gets worse with more throttle, but with the same song at the same high volume in tour it sounds perfectly fine. ..and...

    What issues are there with the I4 (if any) looking to buy

    Many have said it opens up after the break-in period. I personally didn't switch to sport during break-in because others have said Lotus could get picky about warranty work later. So, I can't offer you a comparison, but I have driven in sport quite a bit after the break-in, and find it sounds...

    What issues are there with the I4 (if any) looking to buy

    Only one small issue, that really doesn't affect anything, and Lotus Engineering is working on a fix. The Rear Indicator fault message will occasionally display in the cluster for short periods of time. However, the indicator is actually not affected and still operates. Oddly, activating the...

    Lotus Emira "Accent Highlight Pack" complete

    I saw (and saved) the back vent mockup when you first posted. I have always liked those. However, the final rear vents look larger than the mockups. Could just be my eyes though.

    Anyone in the VA, MD, DC area with an Emira?

    Was worried in the beginning (I chose having only seeing pictures, which makes the tan look orange), but once I saw them in person I was impressed, and happy with the decision. You can sort of get a view in the attached picture - and looks a bit orange, but it really isn't, it's just they way it...

    Wireless Connection (In Settings)

    I was forewarned by the Lotus Tech, that did my first service, that some of the required updates he needs to apply were 3+hrs a piece. He also told me the way the Lotus update tool is designed it will not connect to their WiFi, so they have to use mobile hotspots to download - which is why some...

    I am sure this has been asked and answered, but a search has yielded nothing. So, any insight would be appreciated. In settings, there is an option for connection to a wireless network. When I try to activate it pops open a screen stating that it is searching for nearby wireless networks then...
