Was interesting to watch.  Be interesting to price with packs/options.  Sadly configurator just throws up errors - hope they can fix it!

403 means forbidden! Likely a misconfiguration, I've let them know. 

[GuyT]

I must be missing something.  The S is £15k more yet only has following extra - 

Choice of coloured brake calipers, roof rails, grey diamond turned forged alloy wheels, Soft door close, Active rear spoiler, Configurable ambient lighting and bigger audio.

Standard car looks like the one to have.

Good price point compared to the competition and very modern

I see reference to a roadshow... are locations and dates known / available?  It would be interesting to see and you never know, the dealer might just have an Emira to see too...!

I think you have to subscribe to the updates - the invites came out on email last week with a full list of locations and times to choose from.

Some nice but very expensive options....could spend loads of cash.

Wonder how will its prices hold up on the second-hand market.

Pricing is surprisingly competitive while Lotus is positioning this as a hyper SUV. It's still higher than the Tesla Model X Plaid, once you include the numerous options on the Eletre. But considering Tesla's scale vs Lotus' new operations and hopefully the better quality and vehicle dynamics engineering in the Eletre, the difference will be worthwhile.

It's a shame the Eletre isn't moving to Android Automotive like Polestar and Volvo are. Speaking of, the rear motor specs in the R are interestingly similar to the estimated specs of Polestar's new P10 motor, which was said by their CEO to be exclusive to Polestar: Link

Interesting and well polished presentation.
