KEF speakers have been around for over 60 years. They made their name as studio monitors. Obscure works such as "Dark Side of the Moon" and "Bohemian Rhapsodies" were mixed down with KEF monitors (pronounced usually "kef" as a word not k.e.f.)

I guess Geely, who also on Volvo, Polstar and half of Smart, just threw a load of money at KEF to make system for the new electric cars as one of the stand out features as things like silly acceleration is pretty much a given.

As a huge Lotus fan (own an 80s Esprit, and have toyed with getting an Emira lately), I'm excited for the the Eletre and Emeya (and Lotus plans on releasing 3 more EVs in the next 3 years). I'm really glad Marques liked this. I'm 5 years into ownership with my Model 3, and I'm keeping my eyes open for what's next (I have a deposit down on the Silverado EV, but I'm not really sure). A lot of people in the Lotus community hate the move to EVs, they see it as offensive and that Lotus should continue to make ICE cars (which we all know isn't very future-proof). I'm all in. Lotus has struggled for so long, it would be nice to see the brand get elevated (even though it's owned by Geely now).

I don't think it's the move to EVs that is worrying people, it's the additional weight they bring. And jesus christ, all those servos and additional electronics must be adding even more.

Not to say that this new brand (direction) can't be great and build a new philosophy for itself.

That's what I was hoping to hear: that it would be the most fun to drive and sporty of the electric SUVs while also being ablet to keep up with the very best of them. The GT version here looks fantastic and I'd love to see it in black. It's interesting to note that there is barely any difference in 0-60 performance between the GT car and the SUV, though I'd imagine the GT will perform a bit better on a track given its lower height and presumably lighter overall weight.

Looks like a nightmare to fix. Just ask people that own lotus cars in the past

Great episode, heres hoping you liked one of them enough to put down a deposit! Good to see them breaking out again, but this time with a fully developed product! Both cars are sweet! Well done Lotus!
