The latest MY27 Lotus Emeya and Eletre receive some notable enhancements in terms of features and equipment, with both electric models being showcased at Karrus Automotive Group and Lotus Cars Malaysia’s roadshow happening at Sunway 163 Mall happening from now until this Sunday (May 24, 2026).
The improvements start from the base ‘600’ trim, with the Emeya 600 now fitted as standard with larger 21-inch wheels in place of the previous 20-inch units. Same goes for the Hyper SUV that is the Eletre, which sees a switch from 20-inch wheels to a set of 22s.
To go along with the new wheels, both now come with Pirelli P Zero tyres made specifically for Lotus vehicles. Another handling upgrade are the six-piston high-performance brake callipers for even greater stopping power, while an active rear spoiler is being introduced to aid with downforce.
These revisions add to the Emeya and Eletre’s already impressive performance capabilities which in ‘600’ guise, include a dual-motor, all-wheel drive powertrain delivering 612 PS and 710 Nm of torque. The century sprint times are 4.15 seconds for the Emeya 600 and 4.5 seconds for the Eletre 600, which are impressive figures for electric vehicles (EVs) capable of providing up to 600 km of range following the WLTP standard.
For charging, both Lotus EVs can handle an AC input of up to 22 kW, while DC fast charging is 420 kW for the Emeya (10-80% state of charge in 15 minutes) and 350 kW for the Eletre (10-80% SoC in 20 minutes). You also get active air suspension as standard for a balanced, comfortable and dynamic driving experience.
It isn’t just performance where the Emeya and Eletre shine brighter, as the interiors of both are now even more luxurious than before. Nappa leather now replaces the previous LotusWear upholstery, while a 15-speaker KEF premium audio system and configurable ambient lighting have also been introduced. Finer details include a switch to tri-coloured seatbelts follow the livery of the classic Team Lotus F1, which replace the previous black belts.
To put the cherry on top, the MY27 Emeya has a lower starting price of RM489,000, while the Eletre starts from RM499,000. These are lower figures than the MY26 cars that they replace, and if that isn’t enough, more vibrant exterior finishes such as Fireglow Orange for the Emeya and Galloway Green for the Eletre are also available.
With so much added value at an even more affordable price, the MY27 Emeya and Eletre are seriously worth checking out if you want the perfect blend of performance, luxury and style. At the roadshow, you’ll also be able to get your hands on MY26 cars at slightly discounted prices. Register your interest now and make your way to Sunway 163 Mall to experience first-hand how Lotus redefines the luxury EV segment.
