Lotus Malaysia Expands Emeya Hyper-GT Lineup with New Variants from RM459,000
The refreshed range adopts a performance-based naming convention, with the Emeya 600 and Emeya 900 designations denoting their respective power outputs. Each is available with carefully curated equipment packages aimed at simplifying the buying process while still giving customers a clear choice between a sport-focused configuration and a more comfort-oriented, technology-rich setup.
This naming approach mirrors the strategy previously introduced with the Emira Turbo SE, where Lotus drew on its heritage to modernise classic trim designations such as Sport and GT SE. The same formula is now applied to both the Emeya and the Eletre SUV, bringing legendary model names into the brand's latest all-electric line-up.
The new Emeya range comprises the Emeya 600, Emeya 600 GT SE, Emeya 600 Sport SE, Emeya 900 Sport, and the range-topping Emeya 900 Sport Carbon. Power figures range from 603bhp for the Emeya 600 variants to a formidable 905bhp for the Emeya 900. Both utilise dual-motor, four-wheel drive systems paired with a 102 kWh battery pack, with the flagship model benefiting from a two-speed transmission for improved acceleration and efficiency.
Equipment levels are generous across the board. Even the entry-level Emeya 600 includes adaptive air suspension with Continuous Damping Control, torque vectoring by brake, LED matrix headlights, a KEF Premium 15-speaker audio system, and a 29-inch head-up display. Interior appointments include a Jasper-themed cabin finished in LotusWear performance fabric, four-zone climate control, and a suite of driver assistance features.
Higher-spec models introduce larger alloy wheels, six-piston brakes, active aerodynamic elements including a rear spoiler and diffuser, and luxury touches such as ventilated massage seats, an intelligent glass roof, ambient lighting, and soft-close doors. The Emeya 900 Sport Carbon further distinguishes itself with extended exterior and interior carbon-fibre packages.
Performance remains at the heart of the Emeya's appeal. The hyper-GT accelerates from 0–100 km/h in just 2.78 seconds, placing it among the quickest cars in its segment. A driving range of more than 580km (WLTP) ensures that its capabilities extend beyond short bursts of speed, making it equally suited to long-distance touring. The chassis benefits from Lotus' decades of engineering expertise, offering a balance of agility and refinement that remains a hallmark of the brand.
The expanded Emeya range is positioned to offer buyers a broader choice in balancing performance, luxury, and value, reinforcing Lotus' ambition to redefine expectations in the premium EV market.

Being thankful has multiplier effect — Hafiz Hassan
JULY 25 — I took A-Level Economics 40 years ago. A topic that has stayed with me since then is the 'multiplier effect'. What is the multiplier effect in economics? The multiplier is the number of times larger the change in income is, compared to the change in net injections that caused it. The multiplier effect states that an initial injection of spending or investment (usually by the government) leads to increased consumption spending and so results in an increase in national income greater than the initial amount of spending. For example, if the government spends a one-off cash aid of RM100 for all Malaysians aged 18 and above, to be used to purchase necessities from over 4,100 outlets including hypermarkets such as Mydin, Lotus, Econsave, and 99 Speedmart, the multiplier effect works by creating a cycle of spending and income. When the cash aid is spent, it creates income for others. The cycle continues as the income generated from the initial spending is spent and re-spent throughout the economy, leading to a larger increase in output than the initial spending alone. The cash aid is one of two main types of multipliers in economics—that is, government spending multipliers. Government spending multipliers refer to the impact of changes in government spending on overall output. The multiplier effect can be a key driver of economic growth, as it can lead to increases in overall output, employment, and incomes. The size of the multiplier effect depends on a variety of factors, and its impact on economic growth will vary depending on the specific circumstances. But I did not pursue economics at tertiary level and I am not an economist. My two-cent is that the cash aid comes with the multiplier effect. Being thankful has the multiplier effect as well. The Quran says: 'And remember when your Lord proclaimed, 'If you are grateful, I will certainly give you more. But if you are ungrateful, surely My punishment is severe.' (Surah Ibrahim, verse 7). **This is the personal opinion of the writer or publication and does not necessarily represent the views of Malay Mail.
