COMFORT AND CONTROL

The Lotus Cars App offers a range of advanced features designed to increase comfort and provide greater control over your vehicle. Using your smartphone, you can remotely activate the climate system before entry and check your car's battery status.

YOUR COMFORT ZONE

No matter how extreme the weather conditions, Lotus Connect ensures you’ll always enter your vehicle with the perfect cabin temperature and pristine air quality already set.

When the heat is intense, you can remotely activate the air-conditioning ahead of your drive. The Lotus Cars App also enables preheating the cabin, individual seats, and the steering wheel. This ensures ultimate comfort for every journey.

ALWAYS IN CONTROL

Not sure if you locked your car? Check the status on the Lotus Cars App and lock or unlock the doors remotely. You can also unlock the boot and operate the windows with the app. Locating your car in crowded locations is easy with functions such as remotely flashing the lights and sounding the horn.

The app includes an advanced remote parking feature, allowing you to manoeuvre the vehicle into tight parking spaces while standing outside the car. This feature enables parking in areas that would otherwise be unsuitable.

You can monitor the car's state of charge and view its range remotely from your mobile phone.

UNLOCK LUXURY WITH YOUR LOTUS DIGITAL KEY

Explore the next generation of car keys directly from your Apple Wallet.

With the Lotus Cars App, you can sync your Lotus Digital Key to your mobile device and add it to your Apple Wallet. This enables seamless locking, unlocking and starting the vehicle from your iPhone or Apple Watch.

The Lotus Digital Key uses ultra-wideband technology for passive entry. This short-range wireless communication protocol allows you to simply keep your iPhone in your pocket. As you approach the car, it will unlock automatically.

You can effortlessly share your Lotus Digital Key with your family and friends, so they too can enjoy the Lotus driving experience.

* Not all functions are part of the first customer deliveries and might come later via the Over-the-air updates.

SAFETY
AND SECURITY

Lotus technology enhances your driving experience by adding an extra layer of safety and security. It will always keep a watchful eye on your vehicle. Whether you’re on the move or not.

SAFETY FIRST

Lotus Connect continuously monitors your car’s performance. It keeps track of tyre pressure and temperature. If it detects an issue with the vehicle’s health status, it will notify you.

The multiple innovative safety features include Children Presence Detection. When children or pets are left inside a locked vehicle, Lotus Connect will notify the driver. If no action is taken and the cabin exceeds 35ºC, an emergency call is made, and the windows automatically lower.

SECURITY IS KEY

Protect your vehicle by remotely activating a loud alarm and flashing lights when necessary. The advanced geofence function allows you to set up a virtual boundary around a specific area. If your vehicle crosses that boundary, you will receive an alert notification.

Lotus Connect features a state-of-the-art vehicle tracker, ensuring security and peace of mind. In the unfortunate event that your Lotus is stolen, an additional service is available to help with recovery.

ENTERTAINMENT
AND CONVENIENCE

The Lotus Hyper OS features industry leading Qualcomm Snapdragon chips for seamless, zero lag operation and entertainment. It smartly plots routes for you, while its immersive audio system enhances every journey.

THE ART OF ENTERTAINMENT

The centrepiece of the entertainment system is a 15.1" OLED touchscreen, ensuring crisp and clear visuals. Unreal Engine 3 software provides a sophisticated and dynamic user interface.

The Lotus in-vehicle app store offers a wide variety of productivity, entertainment and music apps such as Spotify and Tidal, so you can stream the latest content to your car.

The audio system of the Eletre and Emeya delivers an immersive listening experience. It combines Lotus engineering, KEF speaker design and Dolby Atmos technology for a phenomenal 3D surround sound.

CONVENIENCE ALL THE WAY

The Lotus on-board satellite navigation system uses live traffic information and charge locations to find the smartest route from A to B. When you leave your vehicle, you can use the Lotus Cars App to find your way back.

Lotus' sleek and intuitive interface design ensures navigating effortlessly. And with features like voice commands and advanced mapping technology, every journey is smooth and efficient.

The 15.1" centre display offers split-screen functionalities. This makes it possible to keep an eye on your navigation while making hands-free phone calls or managing your audio system.

SYNCHRONISE YOUR WORLDS

You can seamlessly add your smartphone to your Lotus driving experience with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ connectivity. Wirelessly pair compatible devices to access your favourite apps, music and more. All via your vehicle’s infotainment touchscreen.
