Eletre S

The Lotus Eletre S is a 5-seat SUV with all-wheel drive, sold new from 2023 to 2025, when it cost £105,805 in the UK, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 4.5 seconds, quicker than 79% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 298 miles (480 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 73% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 44th of 242 SUVs.

It uses around 2.7 mi/kWh (227 Wh/km), less efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 109 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 246 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 365 miles (587 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L). The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Second-hand, a 2023 example is estimated at £40,200–£44,400 and a 2025 one at £60,300–£68,800, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2023 car should still manage about 281 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
