Lotus has launched sales of the top-tier Eletre X SE in China, priced at 558,000 yuan (approximately $80,730). This premium reflects its enhanced features, including a semi-autonomous driving system with Navigate on Autopilot (NOA), an active 48-volt stabilizing suspension, a panoramic roof with electrochromic glass, a carbon fiber interior, and a UWB technology key. An optional four-seat configuration is available, featuring second-row captain's chairs with electric adjustment, ventilation, heating, and massage functions.
The Lotus Eletre X SE's hybrid powertrain combines a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine (205 kW) with two electric motors, delivering a total output of 700 kW (939 hp). It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.3 seconds and reaches 200 km/h in 10.5 seconds. In PHEV mode, fuel consumption is remarkably low at 0.06–0.07 L/100 km, rising to up to 6.1 L/100 km with a depleted battery. The combined driving range extends to an impressive 1,416 km.
Deliveries of the Lotus Eletre X in China are set to begin on March 30, with test drives already available at all brand dealerships.
