2026 Lotus Emira V6 SE Auto

This is a new Lotus Emira V6 SE with the automatic gearbox, the model year 2026 car at 10 delivery miles. It uses the supercharged 3.5-litre Toyota-derived V6, the last petrol-only Lotus engine, and sends power to the rear wheels through a torque-converter automatic. The V6 is the more characterful of the two Emira engine options. It has a distinctive supercharger whine and a free-revving top end, and it is aimed squarely at drivers who value engine feel over outright numbers.

The SE specification sits at the sporting end of the Emira range. It brings the larger wheels, the sharper chassis tune and a richer standard equipment list than the entry-level cars. The dealer's page does not list a colour or individual options, so check those details before enquiring. The car is a dealer-stock new vehicle with only delivery mileage and no previous owners.

The Emira is widely regarded as the best-handling car in its class, with hydraulically assisted steering that has become rare in this segment. The automatic car trades some of the manual's involvement for easier everyday use, while keeping the V6's character. It is offered by Lotus Silverstone, a main dealer.
