New 2000hp Lotus Evija EV EXCLUSIVE!!!!

Hello everyone Matt Watson, this is the new Lotus Avia and today I have an

exclusive

for you because this is the factory that will be built and the Lotus headquarters in Norfolk. Plus, not many people have seen him driving. I never have and here he is driving he's actually driving away from me wait a minute stop video a mix that was happening the avaya is the latest first road car to feature a carbon fiber monocoque chassis it's actually built using the same technology used in Formula 1 cars to make them light, strong, safe and very, very rigid, plus the carbon fiber tub actually extends the entire length of the car and is the longest single piece of carbon fiber installed in any road car.

Anyway, it only weighs 129 kilograms. One of the key features of the advisor is the timeless venturi he now derives from motorsports. You see, if you go very, very fast, you end up with a void in the back of the car and that causes resistance, pulls the car back and prevents it from reaching its maximum speed, while if you allow air to flow, it fills that void. and it allows the car to just glide through the air and go super fast in internal combustion engine cars, normally you would have fans and radiators in there, but in this one, since it's electric, you don't. so now it's completely hollow.

I'd like to illustrate that with the Congressional sticker. Honestly, but Lotus wouldn't let me poke this new car with a stick, so they gave me a cloth. Look at the car. Wow, real cloth. Look at this. Say completely hollow. However, there are some vents here all the way, little shark gills that relieve pressure from the wheel arches to help reduce costs on the road. You might be wondering where the hell the door mirrors are, how are you supposed to see? you're behind you, well let's face it, door mirrors look ugly so instead this Avaya has rear view cameras daddy outie and look at this, this is more aerodynamic than a big door mirror.

Well also the reversing camera is on the roof and you can only see. On a screen that is in place of the rearview mirror, there are only two pieces of active aerodynamics, so you have an active rear wing and some D or s flaps which means drag reduction system, so at this moment the car is It is its most aerodynamic form for high speed racing, but the spoiler and flaps can be raised to increase downforce and help you push off the road for better cornering and as you drive it can also handle that depending on whatever you need here. in the front there is absolutely a ton of passive Aero, so look at the complexity of the design of these wings like one, two and there's a third even inside here.

I really like the fact that they have placed the radiators at the front in a horizontal position. that vertical like you would need in an internal combustion engine, obviously being an electric car, it doesn't need as much cooling, that's a really good thing. I mean, all of this is designed to ensure that the edges flow through, under and over the car. as smooth as possible no need for the car my stick of truth in the Avaya at all everything look each vent only has one purpose I don't know if you've noticed but there are no windshield wipers on this car now it comes with one but you can remove it Normally, it's fixed there, but let's say you go to the track or live in Dubai, as many owners probably do, then you can't remove it.

One of my favorite features of this car. are the taillights look at that then they are designed to imitate the afterburners of a fighter jet also so look at how Lotus is illuminated here now when the car goes into production that will not be possible it is not legal you will still have Lotus illuminated in the battery pack, However, somehow Lotus has managed to negotiate with their authority z-- that the tea can actually light up to act as a reversing light, which is quite flourishing, they surprisingly got their way. I think it's cool, there are some rules that this car has to follow in order to go on the broom, for example you have a fog light that looks like the rain lights on a racing car and then there is the stop brake level you have to follow.

I have it too, but you won't be able to see what happens when the rear wing goes up. They thought about that to make sure this car meets all the regulations. So you have a light here that illuminates everything perfectly legal on the road. everyone knows it's a given rule of hypercars that you just can't have normal boring doors, there has to be some kind of masterpiece to get into them, as a result there are dihedral doors, you might be thinking they are moving quite a bit slow, that's because This is a show car, it's not finished.

Real car doors don't open or close much faster. In fact, we can use camera tricks to show you exactly what they look like. Now they tell the truth. What they want. Customers actually bought one of these. He says he liked the slow-moving doors that were added to the theater. I think I prefer them to go fast. Inside here, the advisors look super modern and very, very well built with live material, like it's going to contour here and carbon fiber. exposed throughout, one of the things that really stands out is the design of the board, so instead of being like a complete, it's more of a beam and here it's just space, so its space adds lightness and to the add lightness, Lotus founder says Chapman's spirit can increase the Chapman always took a keen interest in making sure the components always did a job, so that it's not just there to show off hanging things, but provides structural rigidity a On the body you also have a steering wheel like a Ferrari and it's upholstered in Alcantara so it feels lovely and then there's your front stripe at the top and all the functions are on the steering wheel too so she's your gauges , your lights, your windshield.

Clean your phone functioning like a racing car and also like a Ferrari. I'm just saying that if you need to change the position, you can modify the steering column for reach and height, such a practical piece of equipment equipped with absolutely gorgeous carbon fiber sports seats. and they have Alcantara padding and are quite firm, they definitely keep your body in place and are really nice. I also like this feature. Look, there's a strip of metal that goes through the center of the seat, which says that for drivers, I think it's quite Some of these cars will actually be for collectors to have advance notice as well.

Look, I'm illuminating how varied and irregular normally with electric cars, the battery packs are flat on the floor and run along the car like a skateboard, but the chargers don't. Instead of doing that they stacked it vertically behind the seats, that's not so good for lowering the center of gravity but there are actually benefits to three of them so the first is that it's mounted in the middle which is perfect for a performance. car, then there is a fact that makes it easier for technicians to work on it and the third thing is that it also allows them to change the battery packs if they want, if new technology comes out and the good thing about this battery is that it is the highest energy density battery installed in any road car; can deliver 2000 kilowatts of power;

The Avaya has four electric motors and they are right behind each wheel; Each engine can generate 500 horsepower, which is actually more power than any Lotus Road car. date and when you add them all up, you get 2000 horsepower, making it the most powerful road car ever made. You also have 1700 Newton meters of torque, so you also have a lot of pulling power and because you have a motor for each one. wheel, you have pure torque vectoring so they can over or under accelerate any wheel they want for optimal cornering should be impressive, well it's time to talk about the stats so I'll talk in kilometers per hour because it will just make more sense than the numbers, I'm going to give you anything to 100 kilometers per hour in less than three seconds, that's not important, although nothing to 300 kilometers per hour in less than nine seconds, and this car can actually go from 100 kilometers per hour to 200 kilometers per hour in just three seconds so it's all about that mid range pulling power it's crazy in this car the top speed is over 200 miles and if you want them in old money that's over 200 miles per hour now, one of the problems with electric cars is that if you drive them all the way, your back should get too hot and then they will lose power.

With this they have achieved thermodynamics of the battery so that you can just hit it without stopping and it will give you all the energy until you run out of electricity. or the main functions of the car like sat nav and things like managing the battery and that's all done through this screen obviously you've got your driving screen there and your digital DARS and all that sort of stuff and this shows exactly how it will be. in the finished production car, it has a very, very high definition screen, in fact they can control it using this rotary wheel, a bit like BMW's iDrive.

You also have some other features that are actual physical buttons, but I say physical because they're not quite there. Touch sensitive buttons where you have haptic feedback so it vibrates when you press it, if that's still not good enough you can program them to make a certain noise when you press them so you know which one you're pressing here too. you have your gear selectors down there so basically you have a lot of gears, I mean actually it's just reverse or neutral and then there's the star button there and then the switches for the windows. You also get climate control, of course, and a high-performance stereo and in case you're wondering, yes, there's Apple Carplay and Android Auto for the entertainment system prompts, they're famous for having brilliant steering feel. , so try to make sure this car is the same as the previous Lotus rather than having a pure electric steering rack. an electrohydraulic system, so you should feel a little more about this steering wheel than you normally would.

What's on the steering wheel has different driving modes and there are five of them, eco city tour sport and track, and as you move from left to right with that dial, you increase the power of the card, it goes from low to 2000 horsepower. I think I could be driving all over the track if you want me while you go through those driving modes, you can also alter the stiffness of the suspension because it's adaptive, but the suspension is a little different to begin with. See, it's actually there, it's inside and that helps with the sense of gravity.

It also helps with the Aero, it keeps the car nice and compact, but you probably see there's actually three shocks two springs with three shocks why is that why that's because a third shock actually stops something called lift that between you and me it means the car stops when you lean and pitches when you accelerate or brake and you have the same setup pretty much on the In the front too, advisor beers are made of magnesium because that helps keep the weight down. The suspended mass has decreased, which improves its dynamics. They measure 20 inches in the front, twenty in the rear and they have sent two locking nuts like in racing cars and I really love the design, it's great, you also get comments, they are not brakes in all aspects, also, the tires have been developed specifically by Pirelli for this car that p0 Trofeo is ours with a very, very sticky compound, the battery pack.

This car makes up about 35% of its 16 hundred and eighty kilograms of weight, so it's a 70 kilowatt hour battery that's going to give you a range of about 250 miles and to charge it you just press a button and this lid opens up. Here, it's all about necessities and you're greeted by a small sign that says "Handmade in Britain by Lotus." It makes me proud. Like charging this thing, you can actually do it at 800 kilowatts, which is crazy and it will actually charge a battery. If you do it at that speed in less than 10 minutes you may want to find a charger, it can charge 350 kilowatts in about 20 minutes, but again you may have a hard time finding a charger if you can find a 150 kilowatt hour battery charger.

You will do it in less than 50 minutes. It's not just the performance of this car that's innovative, or its headlights, so you have laser lights. Thats nothing new. It has been done, it has been abused, but no one has done it before. laser lights on both the main beam and high beam, but this Lotus can even tell that the Lotus laser lights in there are quite cold, so the little fan that thekeeps cool really comes anyway, so I think the range of these is 600 meters. that's because you only allowed to have lights that can shine 600 meters on the road.

You can get an app for this, you have one of course, you can know it's supposed to be high tech and modern and you can do things like locate the car. You can lock it remotely. You can set things like the temperature to be the right temperature when you walk in. You can also store all your lap times there so you can show them to your friends while you're out in public. Well, let's get down to the vulgar topic of money, so the Lotus Avaya will cost two million pounds with tax, although if you're rich enough to be able to afford it, you're rich enough to figure out how to avoid paying the tax.

If you want to order one, you have to deposit 250 pounds, you want a deposit of two hundred and fifty thousand five, it's always good, close it on the computer and get the Lotus group. I'll have one of those 250 thousand pound deposits and that's it, people. I've done that, only 130 will be made, so if you're rich enough and you're looking at this one, move on, it will sell out. This will be a collector's car, which is sure to also spawn a host of other electrified Lotus sports cars, some of which will be a little more affordable, which is why this car has been possible. due to the fact that there have been many investments by the new owner of Lotus, the Chinese company Jie Li.

However, it has been designed in the UK, it has been tested in the UK and it will be built here, in this same facility that I am at in Norfolk. Hi guys. I hope you enjoyed the video now, if you would like to see me ride as a passenger in it or better yet drive this thing, let me know in the comments box below, that's okay because I'll be able to share all those comments. to Lotus and I insist that you test drive this car. Also like the video because it will help you qualify and impress Lotus, so they'll have to let me drive it now if you want to see more. videos, click on the boxes below and if you want to download the new car, while the app is completely free you can do things like check the value of various used cars and compare deals and deals on cars, just click there , continue.
