Lotus Theory 1: Exterior and Interior Design

Lotus Theory - Exterior

The Series 1 Esprit is a minor stylistic inspiration for Theory 1. Additionally, it presents the “Lotus Theory” design philosophy, which will be featured on all upcoming Lotus vehicles. The Theory 1 idea is housed on a custom platform, and its design was spearheaded in Lotus’ Coventry design department. Lotus Theory 1- 1,000 Horsepower and No Gas?

A diffuser and drag-reducing air deflectors on the front end combined with a sculpted underbelly to funnel air into the cooling system and then out again to maximize downforce from the movable rear wing while decreasing drag. Theory 1 has two distinct design elements: the rear unibody structure that blends into a huge glass dome roof and the front section with exposed carbon fiber.

With the driver’s seat in the middle and the two passenger seats on either side, Theory 1’s three-seat configuration is comparable to that of the McLaren F1. The steering wheel and pedals are movable, but the driver’s seat is fixed. An infotainment screen is absent from the Theory 1. Rather, a small screen is mounted on the steering wheel, and the speedometer is moved closer to the windscreen.

Lotus Theory 1: Powertrain

The electric powertrain of the Theory 1 is an all-wheel-drive system with two motors powered by a 70kWh battery next to the rear motor. With the combined power of the two motors, it can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 2.5 seconds. The EV has an all-wheel-drive system and a maximum speed rating of 320 kph the EV is equipped. WLTP-certified, the 70kWh battery has a 402 km range on a single charge.
