2024 Lotus Emira 2.0 Supercar
The 2024 Lotus Emira 2.0 is a two-seater sports car that has been praised for its handling and performance. It is the last model to be produced by Lotus before the company transitions to an all-electric lineup. The Emira is powered by a 2.0-liter AMG engine that produces 360 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque. This engine comes with an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
New AMG Engine
The new 2.0-liter AMG engine is a significant departure from the previous V-6 engine that powered the Emira. The new engine is smaller and lighter, which helps to improve the car’s handling. It is also more powerful, making the Emira one of the quickest sports cars in its class.
The new engine is based on the M139 engine that is used in models like the Mercedes-AMG CLA45 and GLA45. However, Lotus has tuned the engine to its specifications. The result is an engine that is more responsive and delivers more power than the previous V-6 engine.
Performance and specifications
The 2024 Lotus Emira 2.0 is capable of accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 4.3 seconds. It has a top speed of 171 mph. The car’s fuel economy is estimated to be 23 mpg in the city and 32 mpg on the highway. The Emira’s performance is helped by its lightweight construction. The car weighs just 3187 pounds, which is significantly lighter than many of its competitors. The Emira’s lightweight construction also helps to improve its handling.
