The ICE era isn't over at Lotus as the company will reportedly over range-extended Super Hybrids

Lotus abandons electric-only plans for 2028, shifting focus to range-extended hybrids instead. These new range-extended vehicles promise up to 680 miles between fuel stops. Details on Lotus ’ ‘Super Hybrids’ remain unclear, but more info may come soon. In 2018, Lotus introduced their Vision80 plan which was designed to transform the company into an “all-electric global mobility provider” in just ten years.

With those disclaimers out of the way, Qingfeng reportedly said “I believe fuel vehicles still have a long lifecycle” and noted Lotus drivers travel an average of 18,641 miles annually. This means range is extremely important to customers and it appears some were turned off by the EV-only push.
