About this car
The 2026 Lotus Emira Turbo SE delivers the brand's signature driver-focused experience in a modern mid-engine sports car. Finished in Racing Green with a Black Alcantara interior accented by Yellow Stitch, this example pairs its lightweight bonded aluminum chassis with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 400 horsepower and 354 lb-ft of torque. An 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission sends power to the rear wheels, enabling 0-60 mph acceleration in 4.0 seconds and a top speed of 180 mph while keeping curb weight at 3,208 lbs.
The Touring Suspension balances everyday comfort with sharp handling, and the car rides on 20-inch V Spoke Diamond Turned Silver and Gloss Black wheels wrapped in Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport tires. Yellow brake calipers add a striking visual contrast beneath the Full Black Pack with Silver Accents, while privacy glass and the Yellow and Black Nose Badge and Center Caps complete the exterior specification.
Inside, Black Alcantara with Yellow Stitch covers the seats and is paired with an Alcantara headliner. A Black Leather Steering Wheel with Yellow TDC and stitching sits above Yellow Seat Belts, with Premium Footwell Mats and Sport Pedals underfoot. The KEF Premium Audio system provides high-quality sound for daily drives.

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.
