Following its debut, the Hethel-based company has revealed the GT4 race car equivalent that will make its track debut in 2022, replacing the old Evora GT4. The Emira’s design bears a few similarities to the Evija, Lotus’ high-performance car introduced in 2019. The 2024 Lotus is gearing up for an all-electric future, as previewed by the Evija hypercar.

The successor to the Evora GT, currently the only Lotus sold in the US, Emira has a more practical, much nicer interior and offers active safety equipment for the first time. The entry-level Emira gets a 360-horsepower turbo-quad, while Lotus offers a 400-pony supercharged V-6 and a manual gearbox. This means that the Emira competes with Porsche’s 718 Cayman and certain 911 variants.

Inside, the 2024 Emira’s interior is both minimalist and intimate. The driver faces an angular steering wheel and a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster. Likewise, the automaker is trying to make getting in and out of its latest sports car easier by making the door sills narrower and the door openings wider than on the Evora GT. Other practical improvements include a pair of cup holders in the center console and storage bins in the doors, each of which can allegedly house a half-liter bottle.

The 2024 Emira’s infotainment system will operate via a 10.2-inch touchscreen mounted in the center of the instrument cluster. Apart from the controls on the steering wheel and the possibility of voice commands, there are no physical controls for adjusting the volume or tuning the stereo. Besides 12-volt and USB charging ports, the sports car will feature standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone functionality.
