How Much Is the Lotus Evija?
At its 2019 reveal, the Evija was priced at about £1.7 million, roughly $2.1 million, with early reports suggesting $1.8 million to $2.5 million depending on market and specification. Regional listings for later cars have shown local prices equivalent to well over $2 million. With no more than 130 built, values depend heavily on each car’s history and specification.
How Many Lotus Evijas Were Made?
Lotus committed to building no more than 130 Evijas, matching the car’s Type 130 designation. Production was planned in a purpose-built hall at Lotus’s Hethel factory, where the Elise, Exige and Evora lines were removed to make room for the Evija and the Emira. Deliveries were delayed by the pandemic, and Lotus ended its development partnership with Williams Advanced Engineering, citing delivery problems.
Lotus Evija Design and Aerodynamics
The Evija’s most distinctive feature is its aerodynamics: large Venturi tunnels pass through the rear of the body, channeling air through the car rather than over it, and its low, wide carbon-fiber shape is designed around downforce and cooling for its battery and motors. Lotus positioned the Evija as a showcase for its electric future as well as its lightweight engineering heritage.

Yes. An Evija is one of the rarest electric hypercars in the world, and Borro lends up to 50% of the appraised value on cars worth $50,000 or more.
