(Hethel, UK – 27 April 2021) – Lotus has today confirmed the name of its eagerly anticipated all-new sports car will be EMIRA.

The news was confirmed during the Driving Tomorrow global digital conference broadcast. To date it has been known only by its codename, the Lotus Type 131.

Emira means ‘commander’ or ‘leader’ – highly appropriate for this new Lotus sports car

The world debut of Lotus Emira will be on Tuesday 6 July

This very popular track day organised by Chris Parker will be running under the appropriate government guidelines. Track time is fully booked but spectators are welcome.
