USA/Canada Delivery Thread

[Lotustoronto]

Yahoo is bad with putting old videos with new written text. Hopefully that was recorded last year when the Eletre come out...so he referring to cars to USA Summer 23...... missed that by a few days..shoulda said coming soon.

This was absolutely filmed today - from the Lotus Tech stock launch... multiple videos of Lotus CFO online at the moment. I re-watched it.... It is possible this was an older video from the Eletre launch. But very convoluted info being handed out if it is.

To be fair I'm not sure I've heard Matt Windle say a single truthful statement about the Emira. His quotes on cost, timelines, and performance have all proven to be incorrect.

True.... but if he had good news to share about Emira in the US, today with the Stock being launched is certainly the day to do it!

Or

He is playing the under promise / over deliver... Although Lotus is not known to do this.

Maybe a blanket statement because of the automatic delay until summer?

The video says nothing of the IPO launch. Seems like this video is old but if its not and now they are saying later this summer I am really not sure that my heart can take that!

Over/Under on how long this guy gets to keep his job.
If this was an American company he'd surely be gone by now.

So he SAID we have our cars summer 2022. LIES

This needs to happen soon, I sold my car and I’m getting tired of bicycling everywhere.

Right. I seriously considered a ‘22 McLaren GT yesterday. ~$50k more than my Emira spec. My brain [wallet] talked some sense back into me.

I think the Feb 12- Mar 12 still stands for CARB.

Yahoo is the pit of journalism. Easy mistake. I've seen lots of fake/misleading news from them.

I was looking at used 991.1 GT3s and 570S and it's pretty hard not to consider them at this point. Staying strong but still annoyed at needing to bike 30 miles in the rain to get to work.

buy a used toyota. it'll probably be worth more when you go to sell it

Come March 15th, if no carb, I'm going straight for a pre-owned MC20

The way they are depreciating by then you could probably trade in a used ford Taurus for an equal exchange.

Best you start looking now for one, so at least you will have a car come March 15
Carb approval is now expected March 16 to April 17
