CHRYSLER JEEP Lotus Evija review | Our fastest ever road test | 0-217mph in under 1km!
This is the Lotus Evija and in the near 100 years that Autocar has been fixing timing gear to cars to see how fast they’ll go, no car has ever accelerated as quickly as this.
Lotus’s £2m, 2013bhp electric hypercar is astonishingly fast. Unlike most EVs, which accelerate quickly from rest and then run out of puff, once the Evija gets going, it just keeps going. And going.
How fast? It reaches 200mph almost ten seconds quicker than a Bugatti Veyron Super Sport. It takes less than half the time of a McLaren F1.
Over a standing kilometre, where the incredibly rapid Lamborghini Revuelto will reach 186mph, the Evija reaches its top speed ... of 217mph.
What does this acceleration look and feel like? And, once you get your head around the acceleration, just what is this hypercar like to drive? Join Matt Prior at Lotus’s test track for the answers.
