Lotus Evija

Evija in brief

The Evija is Lotus's first fully electric car and the first entirely new model after a long hiatus. It's designed as a limited-series car aimed at achieving extremely high performance and showcasing the brand's vision for electric sports cars.

The body is made from carbon fibre, and its shape is guided by aerodynamic needs: large air tunnels at the rear not only look distinctive but also function as an aerodynamic solution.

Why it's not your typical used car

The Evija is produced in very limited numbers, so it's usually sold directly from the manufacturer or through specialist dealers. Used examples of this car are extremely rare on the market.

If you come across an ad, we recommend thoroughly checking the documents, VIN, and whether the car has a manufacturer's warranty.

The tech

The Evija has four electric motors — one at each wheel. The manufacturer claims around 2,000 HP of total power, making it one of the most powerful production cars in the world.

A large high-voltage battery supplies the energy and is also used as a structural component. Fast charging and powerful cooling are crucial parts of this technology.

What to check if you consider buying one

First and foremost — documentation and service history according to the manufacturer's requirements. Such a car must be serviced only at an authorized service center.

It's important to know the battery condition and warranty terms, and to check if all software updates have been performed.

Carbon fiber body parts are very expensive, so carefully inspect all surfaces and check if any repairs were done after impacts.

Trim levels

Names and equipment vary by market and year; we list the versions most commonly found in Europe.

Evija and other sports electric vehicles
