New 2024 Lotus Eletre review! Lotus is a British brand that is known for creating simple, lightweight, analog performance cars... but the Eletre is none of those things. Today I'm reviewing this new Lotus Eletre and I'll show you the many quirks and features. I'm also going to get behind the wheel and show you what it's like to drive.

    As a car, I dont hate it.... As a lotus; I despise it.
  • @MQZ17
    It was either this or dying. They didnt half-assed is, seems like a legit, well thought out vehicle. If it helps them to continue making their usual sports cars, more power to them.

    Doug is the type of guy who brings a ruler to bed to see how long he sleeps.
  • @tayzonday
    That sun roof looks like it costs $75,000 to replace.

    6:33 "You can change in an instant whether you can see thru it, or whether its totally clear." Ah, so it does nothing 😂
  • Doug the kind of guy who says, Make yourself at home and then proceeds to tell you what you can and can't use or touch.
  • @carypyke935
    That wirring sound is Colin Chapman spinning in his grave..
  • @sageyowns26
    those front triangle flaps look like they would disintegrate within seconds of being driven in any bad weather whatsoever
  • @1in7.8b
    Sweet. Lotus makes appliances now.
  • @papasquat355
    God, I hope the age of the SUV will come to an end soon.
  • @andreafiore8373
    In Italy, Lotus are advertising this as a fleet car. I mean, i think it’s doomed already 😅
  • @mcmoose64
    My first thought when i saw the thumbnail , "so when did the Chinese buy Lotus ?".
  • 4:10 futureproof means: it was so buggy we had to turn it off. Will fix it in future.. maybe
  • @spinxings
    As much as I hate it, I can't say it doesn't make sense in today's market. But it certainly hurts seeing yet another performance brand go down this path.
  • @shawnxu5082
    This is a Volvo, a polestar, a lotus and a zeekr, they are all the same Geetly platform underneath.
  • @cayboy420
    Maybe they fixed it, but when Harry‘s garage reviewed it in the UK recently he found out it didn’t have a battery heater, which is a pretty major omission, and it meant that the range was reduced when the temperature dropped.
