The Legacy of Lotus

Lotus has long been a name synonymous with innovation and performance in the automotive world. Founded by Colin Chapman, the brand has always emphasized simplicity, lightness, and efficiency. As we look forward to the next chapter in Lotus’s history, the introduction of the Type 135 promises to uphold these values while embracing modern technology.

What to Expect from the Type 135

Set to debut in 2026, the Lotus Type 135 is a two-seat sports car that will serve as the successor to the Emira. Significantly, it will feature a fully electric powertrain, reflecting the brand’s commitment to revolutionizing its offerings in a sustainable manner. Internally known as the Type 135, this model aims to simplify automotive design while adopting the cutting-edge Lightweight Electric Vehicle Architecture (LEVA) platform. This approach aligns closely with the historical ethos of Lotus, ensuring the car remains true to its roots.

Performance and Design

The performance expectations for the Type 135 are nothing short of thrilling. Anticipations suggest similarities to the recently revealed Lotus Theory 1 concept, boasting an all-wheel-drive layout capable of delivering nearly 1000 horsepower. The radical aesthetics of this model are also expected to echo Lotus’s distinctive design philosophy, ensuring that it stands out in a competitive market. Production is projected to commence in the next two years, with the initial sales likely targeting Europe before expanding to North America.
