The all-electric Eletre 900 GOLD SUV carries a preorder price starting at 928,000 yuan, while the Emeya 900 GOLD sedan starts at 918,000 yuan. Customers who book before August 31 with a 5,000 yuan deposit will receive 10,000 yuan in credits for interior and exterior options.
Under the hood, both variants pack a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system delivering 905 horsepower and 985 Nm of peak torque. The Emeya 900 GOLD sprints from zero to 100 km/h in 2.78 seconds and tops out at 256 km/h—having previously set a lap record of 1 minute 35.728 seconds at the Zhejiang International Circuit, the fastest ever for a four-door sedan or EV. The Eletre 900 GOLD accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 2.95 seconds and 0-200 km/h in 11.5 seconds, with a top speed of 265 km/h.
On the equipment front, both cars come standard with a "Handling Gold Package" that bundles carbon fiber components and a ten-piston carbon ceramic braking system—features that previously commanded steep extra costs. The Emeya 900 GOLD introduces an exclusive Lovell Green paint, while the Eletre 900 GOLD offers Cloud Glaze Green. Both models share Lotus's performance chassis and electric powertrain foundation, built on the native 800V EPA architecture and supporting 420 kW ultra-fast charging.

This preorder launch marks a significant step for Lotus in the electric sector following its "Focus 2030" strategy release in May 2026. That strategy outlines a parallel push across internal combustion, hybrid, and electric powertrains. By making track-grade performance equipment standard, the "Golden Double 900" aims to carve out a distinct niche for handling and performance in the million-yuan EV segment.
