It’s not every day that Lotus makes headlines. In fact, the last time we wrote about the British sports car brand was in the summer of 2019 following the debut of a first new Lotus model since 2008, the Evija electric supercar. But today, Lotus confirmed that the Evora ’s …
The highly anticipated Lotus Evija, formerly referred to as Type 130, made its global debut today in London as the first hypercar from Lotus and the company’s first model with an electrified powertrain.
