Electric Vehicles & Hybrids

While Lotus and the automotive industry as a whole work to make cleaner engines, other technologies have started to offer green alternatives.

The challenges posed by hybrid powertrains are well suited to the wide variety of expertise within Lotus.

Our experience in control systems, electrical integration and engine design combine well with the 'whole vehicle' knowledge we have as a car manufacturer. This holistic approach has led to practical, efficient hybrids, viable for production.

As market demand grows for greener cars, we are heavily involved in the rapid emergence of electric vehicles. Within this field there is a variety of new technologies and approaches, often from outside the traditional automotive arena.

Electric vehicles present another opportunity for Lotus' combined skills to shine. They pose challenges on many fronts, ranging from unconventional packaging, control systems, software and strategy, through to wider-ranging manufacturing issues.

Our ability to integrate new technologies using a whole-vehicle perspective not only helps our clients deliver their green promise, but also creates desirable, customer-focused vehicles.
