Lotus Goes Full Size<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Another popular sports car manufacturer takes a dip into the crowded waters of the SUV market with Lotus diving head-first with their upcoming 2022-2023 SUV model. Originally it was said to feature a hybrid powerplant, but reports are coming in that it will ditch the #hybridlife and commit to a full EV powertrain<\/a>. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Changes like this are bound to happen with EV technology evolving so rapidly; your design that you began in 2016 may be out-of-date by 2022 with how quickly things are progressing, and I assume this is exactly what happened with Lotus in their first SUV build.<\/p>\n

Lynk & Co 01 Lotus SUV Test<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Geely (Lotus’ parent corporation) has decided to put the full-EV model out first and foremost, and have the hybrid version trickle-in down the line at a later date.<\/strong> This will do wonders for the marketing department as there currently are so many ‘hybrid SUV’ options available from pretty much every major vehicle manufacturer; the press will have a field day with a new fully electric SUV to follow the Tesla Model X’s<\/a> footsteps.<\/p>\n

The SUV will be fully Chinese-made in Geely’s new $1.3 billion dollar factory<\/a><\/strong> located in Wuhan China and the brand is aiming for 600 horsepower produced from dual motors and a range of 360 miles.<\/strong> To achieve this, Lotus is attempting to crown themselves maker of the “worlds lightest electric SUV”. There will reportedly be another version of the vehicle that will produce 750 horsepower<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
