Eletre 600

The Lotus Eletre 600 is a 5-seat SUV with all-wheel drive, on sale in the UK from £84,990. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 4.5 seconds, quicker than 79% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 308 miles (495 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 78% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 29th of 242 SUVs.

It uses around 2.8 mi/kWh (220 Wh/km), less efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 109 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 246 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 371 miles (597 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L). The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Its UK starting price works out at £276 per mile of real-world range, higher than the median for SUVs (£186 per mile).

Second-hand, a 2025 example is estimated at £48,400–£55,200, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2025 car should still manage about 301 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
