Lotus Emira Launch

Hethel, the home of the Lotus in the UK, was ablaze with excitement this week as the launch of their Emira sports car was unveiled.

I was delighted to be asked to attend the launch (despite the rather soggy conditions!) for what was a very exciting evening – including a guest appearance from Jenson Button, who put Lotus’ last ever petrol fuelled sports car through its paces.

The event was a fantastic reminder of the science and innovation of what I call the Norfolk Research Triangle and I look forward to supporting Lotus as they now go to pursue electric sports car technologies – which will be vital as we make our way to a Greener, Cleaner, Healthier Net Zero future.
