Happen to find yourself in London from now till the end of November? Open the Uber app, book an Uber Green ride, and you may just find yourself in the backseat of one of the most luxurious (and powerful) electric SUVs in the world today.
Lotus U.K. has announced that it is partnering with Uber to offer the Lotus Eletre as part of the latter's Uber Green fleet for a limited time. It is unclear exactly how many Eletres are joining the programme, with the two parties only revealing that "a fleet" of them will be made available.
The most powerful variant of the Eletre - the Eletre R - gets two electric motors that put out 905bhp and 985Nm of peak torque, sending the SUV from 0-100km/h in just 2.95 seconds
Unveiled globally back in early 2022, the Eletre marks the first SUV from Lotus, as well its first fully-electric series production car. The car has been noted for venturing away from the bare-bones ethos of earlier Lotuses, and bringing the firm into a new era of performance and luxury, especially with its ability to seat up to five comfortably.
In Singapore, the Eletre is sold in three variants - the standard Eletre, the Eletre S, and the range-topping Eletre R, whose dual motors produce 905bhp and close to 1,000Nm of torque, sending it to 100km/h from rest in just 2.95 seconds. Prices for the Eletre start from just under $500,000 without COE (correct as of time of publishing).
The limited-time addition of the Eletre to London's Uber Green fleet comes as the ride-hailing firm pushes for more rides to be emissions-free.
Uber states that nearly 30% of its miles in the city are now fully electric, with this new initiative now further supporting London's journey "toward a cleaner, greener future". Via the app, users can also track the emissions they've saved via their green rides using a special 'Emissions Saving' tool, launched earlier this year.
Concurrently, a special competition is also underway in the city to reward the rider who saves the most emissions by end-November by taking Uber Green trips: He or she stands to win Uber Green rides for a decade.
