About this car
The 2026 Lotus Emira V6 SE Scura is a limited-edition coupe, with only 60 units produced worldwide. Finished in Satin Nebulous Grey with contrasting stripes, this rear-wheel-drive two-seater pairs a supercharged 3.5-liter V6 with a six-speed manual transmission and limited-slip differential. The engine delivers 400 horsepower at 6500 rpm and 310 lb-ft of torque, routed through a sport-tuned suspension featuring Bilstein dampers, Eibach springs, and double-wishbone architecture at both axles.
Inside, the cabin is trimmed in Black with red stitching and Alcantara surfaces throughout. Twelve-way power-adjustable front seats include memory functions, while a sport suede steering wheel, piano-black accents, and a full Alcantara headliner complete the driver-focused environment. A 12.3-inch TFT display integrates navigation, Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto, supported by a 190-watt seven-speaker audio system.
Advanced safety and convenience features include electronic stability control, front and rear parking sensors, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, collision mitigation, driver monitoring, and a backup camera. The car rides on 20-inch V-spoke ultra-lightweight satin grey forged wheels with locking lug nuts, wrapped in Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport tires sized 245/35R20 front and 295/30R20 rear.

The Lotus Emira, introduced in 2021, is a mid-engine sports car and the last internal combustion engine model from Lotus before transitioning to electric vehicles. Production began in 2022, with Lotus targeting an initial run of several thousand units, though exact figures remain undisclosed as production continues. The Emira is offered with two engine options: a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder from AMG, producing 360 horsepower, and a 3.5-liter supercharged V6, delivering up to 400 horsepower. Performance highlights include a 0-60 mph time of around 4.3 seconds for the V6 variant and a top speed of 180 mph.
For exotic car collectors, the Emira holds significance as Lotus's final ICE sports car, potentially increasing its future rarity and value. The limited-run "First Edition" models, launched in 2022 with bespoke styling and enhanced features, are particularly sought after. While current market values hover around $75,000 to $100,000 depending on configuration, long-term appreciation is speculated due to its historical context. The car's lightweight design, weighing under 3,100 pounds, and its focus on driver engagement further appeal to enthusiasts seeking a pure analog driving experience in a modern package.
