The 2026 Lotus Emira Turbo SE Coupe is a dynamic and performance-focused sports car that blends everyday usability with true driving passion. Powered by a 2.0-liter twin-scroll turbo four-cylinder engine (sourced from AMG) and paired with an 8-speed DCT, it delivers a punchy 400 bhp and strong 480 Nm torque, achieving 0–62 mph in just 4.0 seconds. The SE variant adds Lotus’s Driver’s Pack, including sport-tuned suspension, launch control, and cross-drilled ventilated brakes for sharper handling. Styled with aggressive aerodynamic touches, 20" forged wheels, and signature badging, the Emira Turbo SE also features a refined interior with Alcantara headliner and a fully modern infotainment system (Apple CarPlay / Android Auto). The combination of low weight, RWD balance, and refined engineering earns it the hallmarks of a true Lotus for performance purists who still want daily usability.
