At €96,950, it undercuts Porsche Taycan 4S significantly while offering comparable performance (0-100 in 4.15s vs 4.0s) and superior range (610 km vs 430 km). The remarkable 0.21 drag coefficient makes it one of the most aerodynamic production cars ever made. The 4-seat configuration with individual sport seats creates an intimate, driver-focused cockpit. 800V architecture enables 350 kW DC charging (10-80% in 18 minutes). Limited dealer network is compensated by premium service. 0.25% company car tax makes it attractive for business users. Most buyers opt for Luxury Pack (premium materials, massage seats) and rear-wheel steering, bringing typical transaction price to €120,000-€125,000. 12-week delivery time is excellent for this segment. The Emeya combines Lotus racing heritage with grand touring refinement - a genuine hyper-GT at a relatively accessible price point.\n"}]}
