Lotus is making a 3 ton Electric Crossover? What kind of psychopath would buy this thing?

a chinaman most likely

This is an even worse desecration of the brand than the Chinese lancer .

Here's the thing I don't get
>wtf porsche is making an ev
>wtf lotus is making an ev
>wtf ferrari is making an ev
>wtf alpine is making an ev
Why shouldn't they? Does making a boring mass production commuter car somehow make the other cars had? No one complains when Nissan makes the Altima alongside the GTR. No one complains when Audi makes the A3 alongside the R8. No one complains when Mazda makes the CX5 alongside the MX5.

they're just badgebrained

>>28487339
Porsche and Ferrari are backing out of EVs, due to it being a business mistake. Same reason why Rolex doesn't make quartz watches.

>>28487390
I've never seen anyone say "I don't think X should make a SUV/EV/etc because it's not a lucrative business decision"

>>28487457
you might be too young to remember, but Lotus is known primarily for lightweight, great handling sports cars. pigfat cuckover is the antithesis to that

>>28487498
Yeah but who cares? Chevy is known primarily for making half ton pickups and Traverses. Should they stop making the Corvette?

>>28487339
Bad for the brand and also they’re not making something their customers want. Although lotus doesn’t have customers and refuses to just sell a $40k car that people want

>>28487299 (OP)
Is this a Prius?

>>28487498
And because nobody bought them they've been in financial distress for years.
The Chinese are just trying to make a profit by selling dogshit dumb ev suvs. Who cares, as long as they start making lightweight ices again after they secured financial stability. This anon
>>28487339 is completely right.

>>28487498
focusing on lightweight, great handling sports cars is why Lotus is now effectively dead and a shell of its former self owned by the Chinese. Fuck off you fucking retard.

Lotus is moving all its uk production to the US also

>>28488238
>outsourcing labor to a 3rd world shithole
Yep, Lotus is dead.

>>28488268
Brits are too poor to afford lotus bro. Try not being a poor country that spend all money on brown nih services

>>28488270

>Lotus renown for excellent handling
>american where everyone drives only in straight line

RIP Lotus
