Geely has completed the acquisition of Lotus, consolidating Lotus UK's Hethel factory and consultancy under Lotus Tech. This aligns British sports car expertise with Geely's global electric SUV and sedan programs, impacting the future of models like the Emira and the company's EV strategy.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Micromobility.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You need to rethink your EV product strategy around legacy sports brand assets now under new ownership. Geely’s consolidation opens doors for new EV development but also raises competition from a better-capitalised Lotus.
