I can guarantee that their excitement is justified – the Eletre is bold, progressive and exotic, with iconic sports car DNA evolved for the next generation of Lotus customers.”
Steve Huntingford, Editor, What Car? commented: “We’re used to Lotus producing cars that excite the enthusiasts, but by winning the What Car? Reader Award, the Eletre has shown it has the potential to attract a whole new group of customers to the brand. All of the cars shortlisted had already generated huge interest on our website, which has a largely consumer audience. And when it came to the public vote for the most exciting upcoming electric car, the Eletre not only won our website poll, but also those we held on Twitter and Instagram, showing just how broad its appeal is.”
