help Lotus Emeya FAQ
Is the Lotus Emeya a sports car or an electric sedan?
It is Lotus's four-door electric hyper-GT, using dual motors and all-wheel drive rather than a small two-seat sports-car layout. The top Emeya R is quoted at 905 hp and 985 Nm, which explains its supercar-level acceleration. [Lotus Emeya](https://www.lotuscars.com/en-CA/emeya)
How fast is the Lotus Emeya R from 0 to 100 km/h?
Lotus quotes 0-100 km/h in about 2.78 seconds for the high-output Emeya R. The less powerful Emeya 600 is slower, so do not apply the R figure to every trim.
Can the Lotus Emeya charge quickly on a road trip?
Lotus says a 350kW DC charger can add roughly 150 km of range in about 5 minutes and reach 80 percent in around 18 minutes under suitable conditions. Actual time depends on charger output, battery temperature and state of charge.

How does the Emeya compare with the Porsche Taycan?
Both are premium electric GTs, but Emeya's headline version combines 905 hp, dual-motor AWD and a four-door cabin with Lotus's active aerodynamic work. The Taycan is the established Porsche benchmark, so compare exact trim, range and charging equipment rather than using the Emeya R figure against a base Taycan.
