Vehicle model
Lotus Gamme Lotus - électrique/hybride
Lotus's electric lineup marks the brand's transformation under the aegis of Geely. It opens with the Evija, a very high-power electric hypercar produced in a very limited series at Hethel, then expands into volume production with the Eletre (SUV) and the Emeya (large fastback sedan) built in China. These models aim to combine Lotus's dynamic identity with the advantages of electric power: high performance, quietness, fast charging, and onboard technologies. They target an international premium clientele and position Lotus within the transition to electrified mobility. Tire and wheel note: these electric vehicles, heavy and powerful, are fitted with large wheels (often 20 to 23 inches) with wide, low-profile tires. In Quebec, approved winter tires are mandatory; a dedicated winter set, sometimes in a smaller diameter, is recommended while respecting the original size and bolt pattern.

Les Lotus récentes chaussent de grandes jantes : autour de 20 pouces sur la sportive Emira et de 20 à 23 pouces sur les modèles électriques Eletre et Emeya. Les montes sont généralement décalées (pneus arrière plus larges que l'avant), avec des profils bas et des pneus de performance Michelin ou Pirelli en monte d'origine. Au Québec, des pneus d'hiver homologués sont obligatoires : pour ces véhicules, on privilégie souvent un ensemble hiver dédié, parfois en diamètre inférieur pour le confort et la disponibilité. Vérifiez toujours la dimension exacte, l'indice de charge et de vitesse, et l'entraxe propres à votre modèle et année avant l'achat de pneus ou de jantes.
