Lotus Eletre 600

The Lotus Eletre 600 is among the fastest-charging SUVs on sale, adding about 113 miles in a 10-minute stop. The car’s substantial weight of 2,640 kg reduces both efficiency and tyre life.

By eight years on the road it should still hold about 82% of its battery health, roughly 370 km of real-world range, which is a useful yardstick if you’re buying used. What owners say: Premium cabin quality combines high-end materials, sharp displays and elegant styling to rival German competitors. Poor real-world efficiency of 1.95-2.2 mi/kWh and expensive public charging (85-87p/kWh) mean high running costs without home charging.

What Owners Say

Positive

Owners Love

  • Premium cabin quality combines high-end materials, sharp displays and elegant styling to rival German competitors
  • Impressive performance of up to 905hp delivers supercar-comparable 2.9-second 0-62mph acceleration
  • Excellent handling for a 2.6-tonne SUV, with responsive steering, air suspension and torque vectoring creating a Lotus-inspired driving feel

Watch Out For

  • Poor real-world efficiency of 1.95-2.2 mi/kWh and expensive public charging (85-87p/kWh) mean high running costs without home charging
  • Severe depreciation sees values fall from £102,000 to under £66,000 within 20 months, prompting concerns about residual values
  • Numerous software problems lead to extended dealership downtime lasting weeks or months, with inconsistent support throughout the network

Owner Tips

  • Install a home charger before buying: public charging is prohibitively expensive at 85-87p/kWh, roughly matching petrol running costs at 15mpg
  • For everyday driving, use Tour mode rather than Sport or Track modes, which offer better comfort, efficiency and balanced handling on UK roads
  • Choose 20-inch wheels rather than the standard 22-inch wheels if ride comfort and reduced tyre noise are priorities
