View dealThe Lotus Eletre is a large five-seat electric SUV, and it is the car that took Lotus from lightweight two-seaters into the luxury performance market. It's for drivers who want a genuinely quick family car with a cabin that feels special, and who can charge regularly.
In Lotus's line-up it sits as the big, practical one: five doors, 688 litres of boot space with the rear seats up and 5.10 metres of length, against the low-slung sports cars the badge is better known for.
The choice here is simple. One body style, one electric powertrain built around a 112 kWh battery, and six trims: 600, 600 GT, 600 GT SE, 600 Sport SE, 900 Sport and 900 Sport Carbon.

The Eletre is Lotus's electric SUV, on sale in this form since 2022, and it pairs supercar-level outputs of 604 to 905 bhp with genuine family-car space. It is covered by a 5-year / 100,000-mile manufacturer warranty.
Reviewers consistently praise the interior - build quality, materials and the screen tech are usually described as the best any Lotus has offered - along with strong body control and steering that feels sharper than most rivals of this size and weight.
The common criticisms are just as consistent: real-world efficiency isn't a strength, there's road and wind noise at motorway speeds, and the low-speed ride can feel firm on the larger wheels. Rear passenger space, though, is exceptional, and the 688-litre boot is big for the class.
Because every Eletre arrives heavily equipped, and leasing keeps you in it for a fixed term without taking a view on what a six-figure electric SUV will be worth in three years' time. That's the whole point of contract hire.
Standard across the range: air suspension, four-wheel steering, matrix LED headlights, head-up display, four-zone climate control, heated front seats and steering wheel, electric seat memory, powered tailgate, keyless entry and start, wireless charging, built-in navigation with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a heat pump.
Driver assistance is thorough too - adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-keep and active lane-change assist, traffic sign recognition, automatic high beam and front and rear parking sensors. Every version tows up to 2,250 kg braked.
There's only one: a 112 kWh battery driving all four wheels, with an automatic gearbox and outputs from 604 bhp to 905 bhp depending on version. No petrol option, so charging is part of the deal.
WLTP range runs up to 373 miles, and charging peaks at 350 kW - 10-80% in 20 minutes on the best version. It suits drivers with home or reliable workplace charging; if you regularly use the performance, expect the range to drop.
