The Eletre is an electric SUV built by a company that made its name removing weight, and the contradiction produces something genuinely unusual: a five-metre, five-seat vehicle that changes direction like a far smaller car.
Drive the S before assuming you need the R, then compare it with the lower, faster Emeya and the petrol Emira.
How much does the Lotus Eletre cost in Saudi Arabia?
Two versions, and the gap between them buys performance rather than equipment. The S opens at SAR 690,000 and the R sits at SAR 840,000 with 905 bhp on tap. Both are twin-motor all-wheel drive with a 688-litre boot, so the R is a faster Eletre rather than a better-appointed one.
Which Eletre is the one to buy?
The S. It is already extremely quick, it is easier on tyres and energy than the R, and the equipment that makes the cabin what it is comes as standard on both. The R exists for buyers who want the headline performance figure and are content to pay for it twice — once at purchase and again in consumables.
Lotus Eletre or a Porsche Cayenne?
The Eletre is the more extraordinary car to drive and by far the rarer thing to arrive in, with handling that embarrasses SUVs weighing considerably less. A Porsche Cayenne has the established network, the proven parts supply and much better resale in the Kingdom. Choose the Lotus with your eyes open about which of those matters to you.
How practical is charging an Eletre in Saudi Arabia?
Very workable if you can charge where the car is parked overnight. A home wall box covers ordinary driving completely, and the routine replaces fuel stops rather than adding to the week. Rapid charging is concentrated in the larger cities, so an intercity journey benefits from one planned stop, and this car accepts high charging speeds when it finds them.
