Breathtaking Performance

The steering wheel is trimmed with a soft robotic fabric that inflates to communicate with the driver. Analogue paddles enhance the "hands-on" experience of a pure sports car

Lotus has developed its own proprietary driver system called LOTUSWEAR™, which is an immersive system that aims to deliver a personalised experience to every occupant in the car, designed to evoke a sense of raw emotion and pure excitement – and further connect them to the road.

This features an adaptive soft and lightweight robotic textile material, seamlessly enabling the car to communicate with the driver and passengers and offer a more intuitive and comfortable in-car experience. It aims to do this through inflatable pods on the seating and steering wheel that will react in real time to offer more support, grip, and subtle prompts via personalised haptic feedback. For instance:

  • Pulses on the left and right sides of the wheel will indicate when the driver should make a turn
  • There are five drive modes: Range, Tour, Sport, Individual and Track, delivering comfort and enhancing the driver experience & dynamic ability, as well as constantly adapting to the driver’s surrounding environment. This aims to optimise efficiency, performance, and comfort in any environment
