Lotus has just announced that it's getting into the electric SUV game and its entrant in this segment is called the Eletre.

But it's necessary if the company is to survive. SUVs are hot and electric SUVs are even hotter. Every major automaker – Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai, Jaguar – all have one in their lineup. Propulsion comes from two electric motors that will produce around 600hp. So despite its heft, that's still enough to get the Eletre from 0-100km/h in less than three seconds.

Inside, the Eletre gets many safety features and toys. There's Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control, Collision Mitigation Support Front, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Front Cross Traffic Alert, Lange Change Assist, Children Presence Detection, Lane Keep Aid with Lane Departure Warning, and many, many more.
