Lotus has highlighted its high-performance vehicle lineup through both competitive demonstrations and official exhibitions. 

Initially, the Lotus Eletre X, a plug-in hybrid luxury hyper-SUV, was featured in a drag race against the Ferrari Purosangue and the Lamborghini Huracán Performante. The Eletre X utilizes a 2-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine and three electric motors to produce 952 horsepower.

Following this, Lotus showcased several models at the 2026 Torino Auto Show. The exhibition included the all-electric Evija hypercar, the national debut of the Eletre X, and the Emira 420 Sport, a top-tier version of the sports car featuring a 2.0-liter turbo engine.
