Lotus plans four new electric vehicles by 2026, including this sports car.
Lotus E-Sports platform for short-wheelbase electric sports cars
Should the Type 135 end up as the entry-level sports car in the future Lotus lineup, just like the Elise, it should have the base specs afforded by the E-Sports platform. Lotus has confirmed this as a 66.4-kilowatt-hour battery, 469-hp rear-mounted motor, and short wheelbase with seating for two. Expect other Lotus models based on the E-Sports platform to have similar positioning to the Exige and Evora/Emira. The most potent configuration has been confirmed as having a 99.6-kwh battery and dual-motor system good for at least 871 hp.
Due to the heavy nature of EV batteries, Lotus is unlikely to truly match the lightweight ethos of the Elise with its Type 135, though efforts are being made to ensure it is among the lightest in the electric sports car arena. In addition to the work being done with Britishvolt, the rear structure of the E-Sports platform has been made 37% lighter than the structure on the Emira platform.
