High-Tech Lotus Evija Configurator Teased

The Lotus Evija configurator will utilize advanced gaming software and an ultra-powerful graphics processor.

Lotus today revealed a gallery and a short video teasing its touchscreen configurator designed especially for the upcoming all-electric hypercar Evija, scheduled for market launch later this year.

This extraordinary and unique two-seater (only 130 will ever be made) is required to offer deep personalization – “from striking exterior paint color combinations to highly detailed interior trim”. The company intends to visualize the bespoke specification from every angle, inside and out, using a special configurator, equipped with an ultra-powerful graphics processor to create “stunning high-definition ‘photo-realistic’ images and animations.”

“Thanks to an advanced imaging technique known as ray-tracing, they can even place their Evija into multiple environments around the world to see how localised sunlight levels will affect their choices. The final element is the creation of a fully personalised ‘360 degree fly-through’ film exclusive to each customer.”
