Typical sold price of a Lotus Emira ranges from $55,499 to $131,446, based on 1,026 sales tracked on Hypercars. 530 currently for sale.
The Lotus Emira marks the end of an era as the brand's final car powered by an internal combustion engine. It replaces the long-running Elise, Exige, and Evora, packaging Lotus's signature handling dynamics in a more refined and daily-drivable vehicle aimed squarely at competitors like the Porsche 718 Cayman.
The Emira's collectibility is rooted in its status as the last of its kind. It's offered with two distinct powertrains: a supercharged 3.5-liter Toyota V6 carried over from the Evora, or a 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder sourced from Mercedes-AMG. For enthusiasts, the V6 paired with the 6-speed manual transmission is the most desirable combination.
Early examples have hit the secondary market, with an average sale price around $89,000. Demand is strong for the initial "First Edition" cars, which came loaded with options. While the market is still establishing itself, the long-term value proposition for manual V6 models appears very positive.
Prices range from $51,000 for early models to $114,490 for sought-after, low-mileage examples.
1,026 Lotus Emira vehicles have been tracked across auctions and listings on Hypercars, with 530 currently live. Sold prices range from $1,620 to $324,990.
