Imoto entsha yezemidlalo evela eLotus inokutshintshwa ngokupheleleyo kwi-ELIZ, i-eng kunye ne-Evora.
I-evija hypercar kunye ne-suves ye-sues yexesha elizayo sele iphuhlile, kodwa uphawu lwe-hehetul olusesikweni aluyeki i-injini yokuhlaselwa ngaphakathi. Ngokutsho kohlelo lwangaphandle, ngokubhekisele kumthombo, uqhelene nezicwangciso zenkampani, le phunga ihlobo lemodeli yokugqibela yemodeli yeBritane yeBritane yeemoto zezemidlalo.
Iinkcazo zisahlala ziyimfihlakalo, kodwa uMlawuli weLotul Port Polfem wathi kwincoko yomnxeba ethi imodeli entsha izakufumaneka kumaxabiso aphezulu. Inguqulelo esisiseko iya kuxabisa iipesenti ezingama-55,000 ze-ruble (malunga nezigidi ezi-5.5 zereyimu yangoku) kwaye, kuxhomekeke kusimo, ukuya kuthi ga kwi-105,000 yezigidi ze-rubles) ziya kukhula.
Ukujonga udidi lwamaxabiso olubanzi, kusenokwenzeka ukuba iimodeli zokwaluphala zika-Elise, i-eng kunye ne-Evora zinokukhutshelwa kumlawuli kwaye zithathelwe indawo yile modeli intsha. Ngexesha lencoko yomnxeba, intloko yenkampani yathi ukuveliswa kwemveliso kucetywe ukuqalwa ngo-2022, kwaye uqinisekile ukuba inqwelo mafutha "ukukhula okukhulu". Ngapha koko, wathi inoveli iphuhliswe njengemodeli yehlabathi.
I-Popham ayizange ingene kwiinkcukacha zemoto, kodwa yathi iphumelele "uyilo lombane" lwanamhlanje, livumela uthando lotanu ukuba linike izakhono zonxibelelwano ezingakumbi. Yakhanyisa imoto yezemidlalo iya kubekwe kwiqonga elenzelwe ukunyusa ukusetyenziswa kwemihla ngemihla, ngakumbi xa kuziwa kwi-salon kwaye ihla kuyo.
Ukongeza, kwaziwa ukuba iLotus ayikhupheli ukubakho kokuthengisa iqonga le-motor yezemidlalo yombane, ayenza nge-alpine. Ukutshintsha i-A110, kutshanje kubhengezwe ngo-Eva osungulwa ngokusesikweni ngo-2025, kuya kufakelwa ngoyilo olutsha lwe-Ev, oluya kuthi lijongene nemodeli phantsi kophawu lweLotus.
Iimpawu ezimbini ezinamanqanaba amancinci athetha malunga nezixhobo "kwiinyanga ezininzi" kwaye musa ukubakhupheli amathemba okwabelana ngeqonga kunye neqela lezemidlalo, kwaye bathengise iimoto ezaneleyo zokugubungela utyalomali, ubunzima obukhulu . Ukuhanjiswa kweendleko ngokuthengisa iqonga kwezinye iinkampani kungavumela iLotus kunye ne-alpine ukubuyisela inxenye yemali etyalwe imali.
