The Emira is a landmark model for Lotus, being the last in their lineup to feature a petrol engine. Once this generation concludes, Lotus will transition entirely to EVs. The updated 2025 Emira range, now available in India, includes the Emira Turbo, Emira Turbo SE, and Emira V6.
The Emira V6 is powered by a supercharged 3.5-litre V6 engine, paired with a six-speed manual or automatic transmission. The Emira Turbo and Turbo SE variants feature a 4-cylinder variable geometry turbocharged engine, mated to an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT). The Turbo SE accelerates from 0 to 100 kmph in just 4 seconds and has a top speed of 290 kmph. Prices for the Emira start at ₹3.22 crore. The final cost depends on customisation options, exchange rates, and other external factors.
