Lotus: Cold test in the refrigerator for cars 🎥
TEST DRIVES Over the past three years, the new Lotus Emeya has undergone an extensive testing and development program spanning 15 countries and two continents. The first deliveries will follow soon.
During winter testing in the Arctic Circle, the Lotus Emeya proved that it can deliver impressive performance even in the coldest conditions. The rigorous tuning and testing procedures ensure that the all-electric Emeya drives like a real Lotus - agile and distinctive, with many safety features.
Testing at minus 40 degrees Celsius
The new GT spent this winter in Ivalo, Finland, so that the developers could complete the final series of tests under extreme conditions. Temperatures of up to minus 25 degrees Celsius prevailed around 250 kilometers north of the Arctic Circle. In addition, the Lotus team parked the car in a car refrigerator to test it even at minus 40 degrees Celsius.
Australia, Middle East and USA
All of the tests took place on different terrain and under varying conditions. The test program ranged from country roads in Great Britain to German freeways and Alpine passes. The Emeya was also tested on race tracks such as the Nordschleife and on test tracks such as the high-speed loop in Nardò. And before the model is delivered to Australia, the Middle East and the USA, regional tests will also be carried out there.
