I have long considered Emira not to be a supercar but I see it get referred to as a supercar by many many publications, literally all the time. I see it get associated with other exotic supercars like lambo and ferrari, and I have seen it featured in countless youtube channels that specialize in supercar spotting too. Also I see Lotus called a "supercar manufacture"
That got me thinking, what exactly are the requirements for a supercar and does the Emira meet them?
I think the Emira meets all requirements except for one, and its probably the most important, which is performance. 400hp and 0-60 in 4.2 seconds is solidly in sports car territory, not supercar. however thats only part of the performance equation. If we aren't talking straight line speed but instead of track times, maybe it's competitive?
another requirement it doesn't meet is price, which is debatable if thats even a requirement, but its a small fraction of what most would consider a normal supercar price
what do you guys think?
are you going to introduce your car as a "supercar"?
maybe "suprecar-ish"?
maybe "baby supercar"?
