Lotus Eletre price, Theory 1, concept, electric supercar, specs, performance


Lotus has unveiled a new electric supercar concept called Theory 1, which highlights the blueprint for the brand’s future offerings. The Lotus Theory 1 is essentially a 1,000-hp, three-seater electric supercar that could enter production in the future.

  1. Theory 1 boasts 1,000hp, 320kph top speed
  2. Offers 402km WLTP-certified range
  3. Debuts Lotus’ new design language

Lotus Theory 1: exterior, interior design

The Theory 1 draws subtle styling inspiration from the Series 1 Esprit. It also introduces the ‘Lotus Theory’ design manifesto, which will be seen on all future Lotus cars. The Theory 1’s design was led at Lotus’ design centre in Coventry, and the concept sits on a bespoke platform. It measures 4,490mm in length, 2,000mm in width, stands 1,140mm tall, and has a 2,650mm long wheelbase.

The front end features a diffuser and drag-reducing air deflectors, which work in conjunction with a sculpted underside that directs air into the cooling system before being directed to reduce drag and optimise the downforce of the adjustable rear wing. Theory 1’s design seems to be divided into two parts: one with exposed carbon fibre, and the other with the unibody structure at the rear that merges into a large glass dome roof.

The Theory 1 features a similar 3-seater layout to that of the McLaren F1, with the driver’s seat positioned centrally and the two passenger seats placed behind it on either side. Since the driver’s seat is fixed, the steering wheel and pedals are adjustable. The Theory 1 does not have an infotainment screen. Instead, it gets a small screen on the steering wheel and a speedometer positioned closer to the windscreen.

Lotus Theory 1: powertrain, specs

The Theory 1 uses a twin-motor all-wheel-drive electric powertrain that draws energy from a 70kWh battery mounted next to the rear motor. Combined, the two motors produce 1,000hp, helping it sprint from 0-100kph in under 2.5 seconds. The EV gets an all-wheel-drive system and has a top speed rating of 320kph. The 70kWh battery provides a WLTP-certified range of 402km on a single charge.

Despite it still being a concept, Lotus chief creative officer Ben Payne revealed to Autocar UK that around 85 percent of its technical features are production-ready, and that a road-going version could follow sometime later.
