With the introduction of the Emira sports car earlier this year, Lotus is officially done with launching new models powered by internal combustion engines. Yes, every single new vehicle the Geely-owned British marque will introduce going forward will come exclusively with an electric powertrain. Leading the way will be a zero-emissions SUV that is currently known only by its internal codename \u2013 Type 132<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A new episode of the teaser campaign hints the first-ever sports utility vehicle from the Norfolk-based brand will have a highly advanced semi-autonomous driving system. What may look like the return of pop-up headlights is actually something completely different, an electrically deployable LIDAR. Those five letters stand for Li<\/strong>ght D<\/strong>etection a<\/strong>nd R<\/strong>anging, serving as the proverbial “eyes” of the high-riding Lotus.<\/p>\n
