Eco Factor: Low-emission concept car designed to run on a hybrid engine.
Lotus has finally revealed its new Evora 414E hybrid concept car, which will be showcased at the Geneva Motor Show. The vehicle cranks out 414hp and an amazing 590 lb-ft of torque using its two electric motors for propulsion. The two motors, one for each wheel, also feature torque vectoring to improve handling.
The extended range EV is equipped with a lithium-ion battery pack that is good for 35 miles, after which the onboard 47hp monoblock three-cylinder gasoline engine starts to recharge the batteries. The car stores electrical power in a 17KWh battery and also comes with a HALOsonic vehicle sound generator that alerts the pedestrians.
