Although in all honesty I'd rather have the white Lotus (and an Alpine if I wanted to go fast)👍

 

 

Hmmm. I think that's going to be one for personal taste but I'm not keen tbh.

It's shiny though. No getting away from that. 

That's a....... flashy colour.

 

There is a much better saloon coming soon: https://www.lotuscars.com/en-US/emeya

 

And a hypercar in the works: https://www.lotuscars.com/en-US/evija

 

All BEV of course.

Bloody hell 😳 

186mph in under ten seconds is crazy quick. That's top fuel drag car territory. It'll probably do it only once or twice per charge but still.

Amazing if they can achieve it. It's got dedicated motor for each wheel.

 

I was searching for a slightly cheating fast accelerating EV that has a fan creating vacuum under the car for more traction....

 

Came across this: https://www.gridserve.com/2024/02/12/the-fastest-accelerating-electric-cars-in-2023-to-get-the-pulse-racing/

The fastest trim of the pictured fat blob can do 0-60 in under 3 seconds.

Emery’s.  What an awful video!  

I thought this one was a Porsche when i spotted it and right up until at it and i could see the badge. 

 

 

Horrendous colour in that initial post

And those black wheels look awful and very small at the back compared to the body above.

 

It may be an optical illusion but even so...   Meh

It should be called a Rotus… What really ****es me off is these “ludicrous” acceleration figures not attracting widespread mejia criticism. If it was an ICE car capable of those sort of figures there would be protests in the street calling for it to be banned but just because it is a ****ing EV it’s OK, downright hypocrisy.

I just wish that lots of the drivers of these big fat EV lumps could even do the speed limit on lovely driving roads and stay on their own side of the white line and let others get passed them if they can not.

They are not going fast, just apparently holding up those that want to just get on & could as the road is safe to do the limit which is likely 60 mph.   Maybe they are more bothered watching the efficiency / range they can get.

 

It is not often you see the drivers of EV,s even getting away from junctions or roundabouts that quick.

Maybe more bothered about the tyres and grip, or is it the cost of replacing them. 

 

Plenty damn fast motorbikes out and about and maybe even ridden by those that might have fast cars, even EV,s.

Maybe they drive better than they can ride.

Bump for @Winston_Woofcolor is in the eye if the beholder.  On a V5 there is one choice that can be made to what something is.

looks "dirty white" to me
