The centre console adopts a floating design with a large storage area beneath its upper surface.

Physical controls remain for selected frequently used functions despite the touchscreen-heavy interface, while the central armrest incorporates storage, cup holders and wireless smartphone charging.

Rather than using a conventional large instrument binnacle, the Eletre features a narrow 12.6-INCH digital driver display integrated horizontally into the dashboard.

A corresponding display is positioned ahead of the front passenger, while the driver also benefits from the substantial 29-inch Head-Up Display.

Storage areas include a large centre-console compartment, open lower console storage, glove box, broad door pockets and seatback compartments.

Additional underfloor luggage storage is provided in the rear, while a dedicated front luggage compartment adds further carrying capacity.

The Eletre combines premium leather, microfibre, metal and carbon-based decorative materials with an unusually minimalist cabin architecture.

Sustainable materials also feature prominently, including LotusWear fabric on selected configurations, while higher specifications offer Nappa leather and additional carbon-fibre trim.

The latest MY27 Eletre 600 additionally receives configurable ambient lighting, significantly upgrading the ambience of the entry model.

Rear luggage capacity stands at approximately 688 L with the second-row seats upright.

Folding the 40:20:40 rear backrests substantially increases available cargo room, while a separate front luggage compartment provides additional space for charging equipment and smaller items.

Electrically adjustable, folding and heated exterior mirrors are standard.

They incorporate memory functionality and automatic dipping when reversing, while their aerodynamic housings complement the heavily airflow-optimised body.

The Eletre uses large performance braking hardware supported by regenerative braking.

The latest MY27 Eletre 600 receives six-piston aluminium front brake callipers, available in black or red, bringing equipment previously associated with higher specifications to the entry model.

Higher-performance variants also feature substantial lightweight brake discs, while regenerative braking intensity can be adjusted from the steering-wheel paddles.

Active safety equipment includes ABS, Electronic Brake-force Distribution, Brake Assist, Electronic Stability Control and Traction Control.

Also equipped are Hill Start Assist, Hill Descent Control, Electronic Parking Brake, Auto Hold, Post Impact Braking and a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System.

The electric drivetrain’s regenerative braking system further assists deceleration while recovering energy back into the battery.

Occupant protection includes front airbags, front-side airbags, curtain airbags, a front-centre airbag and knee airbags.

Five three-point seat belts, ISOFIX child-seat mounting points on the outer rear seats and electronic rear child locks are also provided.

The high-voltage battery is mounted low within the vehicle’s Electric Premium Architecture platform and incorporates dedicated structural protection.

The Eletre provides Range, Tour, Sport, Off-Road and Individual driving modes.

Individual mode allows steering weight, suspension response, accelerator behaviour and traction-control settings to be configured independently.

The Eletre 900 additionally receives Track Mode, which lowers the vehicle, sharpens powertrain response and permits a higher threshold of electronic stability-control intervention.

The Eletre features a comprehensive sensor suite incorporating LiDAR, millimetre-wave radar, ultrasonic sensors and multiple high-definition cameras.

Functions include Adaptive Cruise Control, Autonomous Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Warning, Lane Keeping Assist, Blind Spot Warning, Front and Rear Cross Traffic Assist, Rear Collision Warning and Door Opening Warning.

A 360-degree camera provides additional visibility during low-speed manoeuvres, while higher specifications add Autonomous Parking Assist and Remote Parking Assist.

The roof-mounted LiDAR sensors can scan surrounding objects at distances of up to approximately 200 M, providing detailed environmental information for the vehicle’s assistance systems.

All Eletre variants use two electric motors, one powering each axle.

The Eletre 600, 600 GT SE and 600 Sport SE produce 450 KW (603 HP) and 710 NM.

The Eletre 900 Sport and 900 Sport Carbon increase combined output to 675 KW (approximately 905 HP) and 985 NM, positioning them among the most powerful electric SUVs available in Malaysia.

Every Malaysian Eletre features dual-motor all-wheel drive.

The electronically controlled system continuously manages torque between the front and rear axles to maximise traction, performance and efficiency.

Brake-based torque vectoring is also standard, while performance-oriented variants add more advanced chassis control hardware.

The Eletre 600-series models accelerate from 0-100 KM/H in 4.5 seconds and reach a maximum speed of 258 KM/H.

The Eletre 900 Sport and Sport Carbon reduce the sprint to just 2.95 seconds, while top speed increases to 265 KM/H.

Despite weighing around 2.5 tonnes, the 900 variants therefore deliver acceleration comparable with dedicated high-performance sports cars.

As a fully electric SUV, the Eletre consumes no petrol or diesel.

All variants use a 112 KWH lithium-ion battery with approximately 107 KWH usable capacity, combined with an 800-VOLT electrical architecture.

Depending on variant and equipment, the 600-series offers up to approximately 600 KM WLTP range, while the more powerful 900 models sacrifice some range in exchange for substantially greater performance.

The latest MY27 Eletre 600 is quoted at up to approximately 580 KM WLTP.

AC charging is supported at an unusually high 22 KW, while DC fast charging reaches 350 KW.

At a sufficiently powerful charger, the battery can be replenished from 10-80% in approximately 20 minutes.

Convenience equipment includes keyless entry and start, automatic wipers, electrically folding mirrors, powered windows with anti-pinch protection and a powered tailgate.

Selected variants add hands-free tailgate operation, soft-close doors and an intelligent panoramic glass roof.

Lotus Connect also allows compatible smartphones to unlock the vehicle and remotely control charging, climate functions and selected parking operations.

The Eletre features four-zone automatic climate control.

Rear occupants receive dedicated electrically adjustable air vents and climate controls, allowing independent temperature adjustment between the different cabin zones.

An air-quality management system with PM2.5 filtration and CO2 monitoring further improves passenger comfort.

All variants use sophisticated front and rear multi-link suspension with dual-chamber active air springs and Continuous Damping Control.

Ride height and damping can therefore be adjusted according to road conditions and selected drive mode.

The 600 Sport SE, 900 Sport and 900 Sport Carbon additionally receive the Lotus Dynamic Handling Package with active rear-wheel steering and Lotus Intelligent Anti-Roll Control, helping the large SUV remain unusually agile while maintaining ride comfort.

The absence of a combustion engine considerably reduces powertrain vibration and mechanical noise.

The Eletre further uses extensive cabin insulation and Active Road Noise Cancellation, helping suppress tyre and road noise inside the passenger compartment.

Its aerodynamic body design also reduces turbulence and wind noise during high-speed cruising.
