This car celebrates the 10,000th Emira and shows the names of everyone who worked for the company in December 2024.

First appearing in public at 2021’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, the Emira has been in production since 2022. It has had the fastest build rate of any Lotus model, hence this special edition Emira that celebrates a significant milestone for the company.

The front-to-rear fade of the name-covered wrap represents the car’s aerodynamics and the United Kingdom’s Union Flag-inspired “Born British” grille emphasises the build location at Hethel, Norfolk, where Lotus is based.
