what's up this is how we prep our videos
rolling cars moving them to a special
location
[Music]
this is the new Lotus of ire and I want
to take you around this beauty we have
special access to this car today we're
here in California but is freezing but
it is well worth coming out here today
because this is I think one of the most
beautiful reveals that has happened at
Pebble Beach this year and I want to
take you through so come with me I think
the back for me is where it gets really
really special I mean just take a look
at this look at how the air comes
through the side here all the way back
through the back taillights
this here is reminiscent of like the
afterburn
although afterburners on a jet let's
just have a brief look at at first
before we go into too much detail
this design here on the lights you see
these little lines here
the designers wanted to make that kind
of look like warrior paint on the side
of your face as you go into war you just
kind of pull that warrior paint up the
side of your cheeks and that's kind of
the design aesthetic that they were
going for here at the front lines the
cool thing is is that when you open
these doors when this is actually fully
in production you're gonna open the door
from a button on the key fob so there is
no button here on the actual door Lotus
is back it's back in the game this is
crazy this is the most powerful
production car in the world just think
about that for a second the most
powerful production car in the world is
a Lotus and it's fully electric is going
to produce 2,000 horsepower this here is
the charging port see how cool that is
that just opens up like this and this is
a nice little plug your hand built in
Britain by Lotus this is actually where
all the batteries are right here when
you look at say for example a Tesla the
batteries just they lie flat along the
bottom of the car like this in this car
they've placed all the batteries kind of
stack them one on top of each other in
this area here means that this car is
going to behave like a typical
mid-engine sports car so it's going to
have the same kind of feel the same kind
of handling and maneuvering as a Lotus
normally would just look how low you are
here you're almost like touching the
road you're sitting super low to keep
that feel of driving a super lightweight
sports car whereas if you had the
batteries going along the bottom of the
car like this you'd be sitting up a good
like probably this much higher than you
would do otherwise so it all adds to
like that sporty feel and that sporty
sensation when you're driving the car
they've got a motor on each of the wheel
so one here
here two in the front and each of the
motors produce about the same amount
horsepower so about 500 per motor the
avaya has some cool other little
features here this is going to be like a
secret James Bond compartment you just
push that and that compartment will come
out so when you put it in reverse what
happens is beti here from Lotus lights
up how cool is that little detail you
see the center line that runs through
the driver's seat here you can actually
personalize this with whatever you'd
like so you can put I don't know your
wife's name or your husband's name or
your birth date or your wedding date so
you don't forget it you can put that
here in this little center line which is
quite a nice little feature let's get in
this is really cool so I don't know if
you guys have seen my video on the
Renault Tresor
this is only the second time that I've
seen something this beautiful in this
hexagonal shape here on the on the
center camp console
you see all of these little buttons
hexagons now they've done that for two
reasons obviously it's more efficient
right so because if the buttons are
round got wasted space around the button
so for this reason they all kind of fit
in together like this and also it's
because you can then kind of feel your
way around the buttons with your hands
you can concentrate on the road to keep
your hands on the steering wheel and
kind of go like this and go oh yeah I
know where there are volume up and down
button is from feeling it you know
steering wheel it's tiny it's really
tiny
it feels really sporty the shape is like
in like an f1 watch what happens when I
flick this over into track mode
pretty cool huh
the wind comes up quite a long way and
also the what are we called DRS whoops
it's getting too technical and you see
the DRS flaps kind of come up as well
and it means you've got this massive
amount of air filling those compartments
at the back and it just kind of sucks
the car to the ground down here these
are really cool as well I like these
little design features you know I think
that's really important in a car like
this when you're paying two and a half
million dollars it's not just about how
fast it can go
it's about how you feel when you're in
the driver's seat
looking at all of these cool little
features you're like yeah that's why I
paid two and a half million dollars
that's a cool design feature this is a
cool design feature and you feel like
you are validated in spending that kind
of money you know you want to be
surrounded in luxury and cool little
features and things that people have
spent time and effort on in the design
making of this car what it has is a
rear-view camera here and it's actually
really high-quality oh there you go
oh yeah look yeah I can see you cap as
soon as you close this door
what happens is the camera goes on so
you can see what's happening beside you
so the camera is actually here and then
it comes out look at that
oh now guys that is cool what I've never
seen that before
when you're in normal road mode will
come out automatically when the door
closes but then when you're in track
mode it'll actually retract go back in
so the cars super sleek should we do
this
go for a drive it was crazy
like like I love the design so so much
if I had the money right now out of all
of the cars that were revealed on the
lawn yesterday I would get this one but
honestly would I'm so impressed by this
I think it's so sexy I've never seen the
back like this on a car before I really
haven't just keep that between you and
me though yeah I don't want them to know
how much my my again this can be fully
customized and you can put in any kind
of precious metals gold silver you could
even have the Union Jack in diamonds and
rubies if you like also the same goes
for the Lotus single yeah you can have
this in gold or silver or whatever you
would like
okay there you go
so I want to join you
okay come in yeah look at the amount of
space sign yeah that's quite a likeness
yeah that's true huge what's usually the
it goes all the way up yeah look it up
guys all the way through oh that's
really cool yeah and then you got the
door opening button yeah world's first
person to drive the new Lotus of aiya
it's happening right now here we are
