Lotus to reveal all-electric supercar

Lotus has confirmed that Type 130, the brand’s first all-new model in more than a decade, will be revealed to the world’s media at an event in Central London on 16 July.

Following first confirmation of the project in April at the Shanghai International Auto Show, several hundred potential owners have come forward to express their interest in the new car.  Now the company has announced that a maximum of just 130 examples will be available – representing the number of Lotus ‘Types’ introduced during the brand’s 71-year history.

Lotus has also confirmed that the Type 130 will be built at Hethel in Norfolk, the brand’s headquarters since 1966.

The company says that “Type 130 will be the most dynamically accomplished road car in the company’s history, continuing a bloodline rich in firsts and technical game-changers in automotive and motorsport”.
