🚗 Lotus Evija X Prototype Hypercar
⏲️ 6:24.047 Minutes
👨 Driver: Dirk Müller
🛣️ Track: Nordschleife
🏅 Category: Prototypes
All information on the official record drives: nuerburgring.de/info/nuerburgring/records
343 km/h on the straight with that wing is madness
@kristianferrari8764 use DRS bro
Think its top speed is also limited as well
@@vwork4452with DRS its gonna reach 356kph.
its just mechanical topspeed, it doesnt matter if he goes up or downhill or has head wind or not, its not gonna go faster. with this power the car could easily do 400+ if they let it
919 did 365
Appreciate the left foot braking! And the whole video layout.
This was from last year though, old foxhole
Wide, WIDEscreen view.
Unfortunately there is nothing else to appreciate
Hopefully next: Bugatti Bolide, Rimac Nevera X and then Porsche Mission X 😉
The left foot braking on that EVIJA X is simply terrific.
300 at the bridge is mental
0 to 60 on Evija X Hypercar is 2.38 seconds and a 341kph top speed.
@@purwantiallan5089 i saw the speedo thing say 345 on the dottinger straight though
Which bridge? The first coming up is over B257 road after rather slow Hocheichen, over 260 km/h indicated there. Then after slow Aremberg, already 180 under the Poststraße bridge, that is incredible. Regular cars go under 100 around the corner, and are only that fast further down in Fuchsröhre. Then, at the beginning of the Döttinger Höhe straight, Audi gantry with 300. Antoniusbuche bridge 329.
Thumbs up for the driver Dirk Müller.
Dirk Muller drove this Evija X Prototype EV? Wow. Thats really interesting.
@@purwantiallan5089 Drives a Ford Mustang in IMSA this year.
that acceleration is insane!
@@ChristophSeufertit is even rivalling the 919 actually.
I mean 500 hp AT EACH WHEEL with instant torque response at all times is gonna give some good acceleration for sure!
@@purwantiallan5089919 is a minute faster, so no
@@purwantiallan5089 with one minute more than the 919 ? lmao where ?
@@zriderx_corners...
Balls balls... BALLS!
And MORE LOTUS POWER BABY!
moin Mabix welch überraschung XD
His balls weights 1000kg, biggest balls on the planet :)
What astonishes me even more is that the porsche 919 Hybrid evo is even faster by a whole minute. that just completely blows my mind how it is physicly eve possible
It was unrestricted but had a restricted top speed and this is also pretty similar. Even with that big ass wing, this could easily hit 400+. But still, 919 was mental!
most amazing thing is the driver of 919 .. bro was flying thru the dimensions
Or the AMG one was only 10 seconds behind, on road tyres and a semi-damp track.
And the Porsche 956 is still around 10 seconds faster
Even if this had no limiters, the time would be maybe 2-3s better, no more than that.@@josh_who_what
Amazing accomplishment! But it makes me appreciate Stefan Bellof's lap even more... 6:11.1 in a Porsche 956 from '83.... Madness!
And with traffic at the track.
Crazy to think about. A laggy turbo 600+ horsepower beast of the 80s, with a 5-speed manual, no power steering and no ABS. The balls on Stefan to put down a lap like that with traffic. 40 years later it is still talked about regularly.
@@SteremyJeele Jesus... i always remember hearing of this record but the lack of assistance really puts it into perspective.
Stefan Bellof was one of the greatest drivers of all time
That is INSANEEEEEE
Insane and epic.😊
You would be faster😀
u are insane
This is insane, and now imagine 919 hybrid was over 1 minute faster...
@toweliethetowel8280
...it's done: 5:19:55...!
I still get mindblown watching that lap. It's cartoonishly fast
I was there when the 919 did the lap record :D it was insane!
@@mynameisschezuan weren’t there for long. Only took 5 mins!
@@Porsche1995 true
I'm not a merc fanboy or anything, but this makes the AMG One lap more impressive. It has a full interior, and lap in damp-looking conditions.
Imagine what the valkyrie could do...
@@Mixedup450 They really gotta get to that
They owe it to the engineers that built it to send it round a dry track in good conditions. Heck if you watch the lap there’s a section where’s there’s mud on circuit and he lifts off dropping speed from 250kph to 200kph when he could be flat out.
Sounds like stormy weather
I noticed that sound as well.😅
And squeaky door
Sounds so soulless
@@AbrahamLincolnSon Yet its an achievement. This is EV done right, unlike the Cybertruck
Die Beschleunigung ist echt heftig. Glaub da käme mir mein Frühstück wieder hoch xD
Speedometer like I CANT KEEEEEEP UPPPPPPPP
"I'm tired boss" meme
That pilot has b@lls of adamantium... 300 in the platz 🔥🔥 Fine driving and of course, Lotus doing it's thing
Take a look at porsche 919 record then
@@alessandromulas2713 I did right after... And yeah... Brutal 🤯🤯
the amazing thing with this car being electric is that it can accelerate like crazy and hit 343kmh. with. one. gear.
I mean... Well not a fair comp. but Regera can do that as well..
Rpm power brah😊
yeah but the battery energy wears out VERY fast. in the car screen you can see agreen bar which truogth the lap is wear out and in deep braking zone it fills (so i suppose is the battery indicator), 80% of that bar was drained at the end!
@@francescomartelli9226 Just some numbers for you.
From the news, it got 70-kWh battery pack.
So, you can pull the juice out 70 kW for 1 hour, or 140 kW for 30 min. and so on.
For this, it drains 80% = 56kWh in 6 min 24 sec.
So, it would be smth like 500kW of power on average the whole lap.
500kW is smth like hundreds of average houses power usage.
@@kraanialepsy thanks for the curiosity.
this car by a quick check has 1500kw+ of power (2000+hp) so the 500kw of avarage power makes sense since there is the regenarative braking and the circuit is not of cuorse taken flat out
Give how stripped out that thing is, with insane aero and slicks the fact it was only 6s quicker on a DRY track in comparison to the AMG ONE which did it on a damp track with parts of the track muddy and on Cup 2’s really speaks volumes of how good the AMG ONE is. AMG need to send it round once more to really show what it can do, they owe it to the engineers that built it.
Exactly. This lap is anything but impressive
@@r7cardosuarez806
AMG one is 2.5 million. This will be a lower budget car if available.
@@richy69ify it will actually be a similar price
11sec not 6 sec
@@richy69ify similar price and this isnt road legal.
This makes me appreciate how fast the VW ID R was. 😮
I mean the ID.R was literally 100 km/h slower at Döttinger Höhe and still it beat this. Just goes to show how much more important aero and lightness is over crude POWAAAHHH. Colin Chapman must be turning over in his grave...
But I guess that's what you get if you sell your soul to the Chinese.
@@MrSlowly63 okay Sinophobe.
@@IvstvnK4hgnte Not sure what exactly your problem is. I stated that Lotus is now a majority chinese-owned company and that their cars these days are quite a departure from their founder's philosophy. If you would like to argue otherwise, I shall be eagerly awaiting your arguments. Other than that, please spare me your unjustified allegations. Thanks.
@@MrSlowly63
Glad you said that ! I hate what lotus has become !
@@MrSlowly63 to be fair, with the current battery tech you can't really make the cars pretty light while also being super fast.
Maybe in 10-20 years we could have something that as powerful and light as a fuel-burning Elise but powered with electricity. Basically Gen 1 Tesla Roadster but 400kg lighter.
wait a minute lotus has a PROTOTYPE ELECTRIC TRACK CAR?!
That's Evija for you
Based on a Rimac Nevera afaik, yes.
@@BastianKHthe Evija X Prototype in terms of engine powerplant, uses the Rimac Nevera as the base powerplant.
@@purwantiallan5089Where did you get this information from?
@@stevendavis6157, nevermind, actually Evija doesn't use Rimac powertrain. Battery from Williams, motors from Integral Powertrain.
Absolutely amazing. The G's when acceleratiing are pure madness !!
That's incredibly fast, but Stefan Bellof was 13 seconds faster in 1983 😮💨 He is still the King of the Ring
that's 40 years ago 😮, i know because im 1983 born.
yeah that Porsche was a monster
@@TheCraigy83 Bellof's lap record lap in practice was on 28. Mai 1983. He also set fastest lap in race at 6:25,910, which is the real lap record.
Old Lotus'es focus on weight. Time is impressive but in the corners and braking IDR looks like on another level 👏✌
Cool, didn't know they still existed and now making fast vacuum cleaners!
yep.. fast vaccum cleaner..
Dear Lotus. Calm the hell down, even the demons are scared.
Nah, it's only the third fastest car around the ring
@@E9X330 Still, just looking at the POV look scary. Imagine 2k horsepower sent to the all wheels instantly.
it's 14sec faster than a Porsche 911 GT2 RS MR, but the Lotus has 1300HP more. And the VW ID.R is still 20sec ahead although the VW is limited to a top speed of 266 kph.
on a damp track, 4 laps in total including 2 sighting laps and I suspect not running full power because of the conditions, Evija X has a lot more in it than this time but they did what they could with the time and conditions they had and still set a record.
@@graemecollie9233 I don't want to say that this statement sounds "a bit like a fanboy's usual excuses," but it's pretty close ;-)
@@f.d.robben159 it's what the driver himself said smh in the exclusive jww video on doing this record. 😏
To me it looked like 5s or more was left on the table easily! It's also the fastest EVER lap for a vehicle on a production car chassis. 😎
@@f.d.robben159 It really doesn't. There is no way they ran with 1972hp and only managed to beat a GT2 RS MR on street tires by just 14s. There is no way they ran with 1972hp and managed no more than 343km/h on the straight. You'd need insane aero to create that much drag and that aero would mean much higher corner speeds. I suspect that they didn't run on full power, because the battery probably can't handle an entire lap of running at that power.
@@4literv6 production car chassis? How many of these cars in this spec will they ever sell: none!
I know EVs aren't as soulful, that this is a not-production-spec PR stunt, that we've all seen more than enough Nordschleife onboards over the years... but whatever. This is quite remarkable to watch and must feel truly surreal behind the wheel at full "throttle".
@@iannealcole You must be fun at parties, ngl .
@@iannealcole🤓
@@Antidepressiva1980 i mean he does have a point
The "whole EV's don't have soul" thing is B.S.
being only 11 seconds faster than road-going AMG-one on slick (!), with 2x the horsepower, likely more downforce and run being done on a dry track is far from remarkable.
the pilot its a CRAZY MF , respect my dude .. respect
respect to dirk müller, the alien
Hats off to both driver and car 👌
Ok, Lotus, you convinced me with your electric car move. Though, is the driver ok with the amount of whistling sound it creates? Anyway, goddamn that's fast.
No big deal if you're used to ICE race cars with straight cut gears - just as annoying as this sound. 😉
Well the actual Lotus EVs currently on sale a rather big, heavy, bloated luxury cars, the Eletre and Emeya, which many people hate and claim they betray Lotus's history of making lightweight sports cars (while going constantly broke). But rumors are this Evija will also be followed be (relatively...) lighter weight smaller electric coupe and sports sedan models, which I'm good with if Lotus does eventually put those more fun to drive cars on the market.
@@tren133Will available in 2027, the electric sport car
@@tren133people that know lotus history should know they dont just make lightweight sports cars, they just make the lightest cars in their class while being at least somewhat functional. Not a fan of how the SUV is designed, but like, its better than the eclat
To be fair, considering the Time Attack level aero, 2000 horsepower power train and the slick tyres, 6:24 is a bit disappointing
This is not driving ... That is flying ... 🛩
Boom
He took Bravery Corner at 200kph. That's about 125mph. To sustain that speed around that bend is terrifying.
The whole fuchsröhre part was mental. Warning big balls showed on the dash on the doettinger Hoehe.
Watching this was like a porsche 911 GT2 RS in x1.5 speed video, and that car is faaaaaast.
freaking insane , bloody hell . What a speed
Thanks for the 2 blue "G-Force-meter" !
der Sound erinnert mich irgendwie an meine Seifenkiste früher während der Abfahrt :D
Hört sich an als hätte ich bei Unwetter mein Fenster aufgelassen 😂
somehow this is much more terrifying without any engine sound. all you hear is SPEED!
335 kmph through foxhole? This is madness. Hope driver will get help to carry those balls.
Okay fine, I'll admit it. EV is scary.
That was amazing to watch! Incredible car and fantastic driver!
One day, the human brain will be overwhelmed by the power and speed of these new/next gen cars. One day we will have Tool Assisted Speedruns (TAS), like in Trackmania Nations Forever, because only AI will be able to cope with the ridiculously small amount of processing time left for our brains to execute each maneuver during a track record.
Is there any external footage?
6:01 211 Miles Per Hour done the Final Straight..... That's Cookin'!
grippy beauty
After watching this video I have a great big smile on my face.
Woah... thats beautiful!
Really clock that lap in a whoosh !
balls of steel and that car is oh my god lotus what have you done!!!
4:22 He nearly lost it right here.... FRIGHTENING Course
Nicely done driver... Well built Lotus
Imaging a future track day at the Nurburgring we’re everyone had electric cars like this! Too scary, too dangerous, too predictable and dare I say it, too bloody boring.
"Too scary, too dangerous, too predictable and dare I say it, too bloody boring."
This entire statement is an oxymoron. And you are the last 5 letters of that word.
@@PG-20 Good luck, good choice!
Electric cars are a contradiction unto themselves. So much energy to produce one then they sound like a fart in the wind
That Lotus could have reached 400 on the straight, but the balls of Muller are so massive that it only reached 345
Dirk Müller went absolut balistic with this one!!!
bro actually fly around that track! good job
4:22 that moment after hohe acht must have been so scary😂😂😂
Its just beat Marcedes AMG ONE for ALMOST 11 Sec😬 AMAZING 🔥
Yeah, on slicks and with not street legal aero parts 😂😂😂 why they not just drive with the street legal car? Because it has no chance against the AMG ONE 😅
I am scared as heck everytime the driver goes full throttle, the sensation of speed is insane
In den meisten Kurven gleich schnell, oder ein wenig schneller als der AMG One, und das mit mehr Aero und (denke mal) Slicks. Entweder isz die Leistung des Mercedes sehr beachtlich, oder der Lotus verschenkt irgendwo ein bißchen Potential.
Der Lotus ist halt nur ein E Auto.
Rimac Nevera, your turn.
Lotus did a top job designing this car
Why is it Electric?
Because the drivetrain would give you a crazy acceleration and also proving that hypercars can be nature friendly.
evija itself was an electric
Also, Lotus was bought by a chinese company, that, like many other chinese companies, specialize in EVs. The problem is that it's literally the opposite of the spirit of Lotus, which aims for ultra light, uncomfortable and dynamic gas cars, the new lotus makes luxury 5500lb/2700kg electric SUVs
@@faridrezayat8546 no car is nature friendly. Brainwashed much lol
It sounds like a spaceship
Still insane that stefan belloff did a 6:11 in 1983 😂
Was my first thought after this Lap XD
It wasn't a full lap of the Ring that his record was set on...
The track in 1983 was a whole lot different than the current layout... It was faster before
@@soundmoddinglawyer Whats the different?
@@KaypangAsli less turns, longer straights
Electric cars are so nice
And that with only one gear, wait until he learn he can upshift !
To be fair i would like to know the spec of this prototype, it's maybe not that far form the "stock" Evija ?
Listen to that wind howling! When was this done? The kerb after Fuchshöhe is the old one.
the date is shown at the start of the video ;)
Lotus gave their engineers a pile of cocaine to make this
and having 4 beers and sixteen shots of vodka whilst they're at it
I was there, this was crazy!
Insane engineering achievement, but engine sound is 50% of the fun of going fast...
Looking clean 🧼
This looks so fast, but then you realise the Porsche 919 did the lap in more that a minute quicker.
Totaly insane❤❤❤
If stormy weather was a hypercar
5:55 Bro hit the fast forward button in real life
Суровая реальность без привычных звуков двс😢😢
Non ce n'est presque pas humain, incroyable 😮 je pense que le pilote as effacé le mot peur du dictionnaire
Steady as a train !
The lack of engine sound... The rattling sound... No! 😅
Schnell aber nicht schnell genug. Der Akku ( Links im Bild) war nach der Runde nahezu leer. Lol 😜
Wenn man rechnen kann füllt man beim Verbrenner nur so viel Sprit ein wie man braucht. Warum sollten die bei einem E-Prototypen ne größere Batterie mitnehmen als die für ne Rekordrunde brauchen?
@@JURacing Das ist doch klar. In Deutschland muss jedes Auto spontan 1000km am Stück durchfahren können und muss dabei mindestens einen, besser zwei Kühlschränke transportieren können.
Weil der Akku über 700 kg wiegt. Es gibt kein E Auto das 2 Runden NS unter Vollast schafft.
pretty fast for a rc car.
If Colin Chapman was there, he'll probably say "good run, but we can still do better."
that is insane !!!!😍😍😍😍
Now that is some serious shit
Performace is performance. The future is here, and it sounds like a Dyson
Where do I get a Dyson that sounds like that? Because I want one
VW ID R only reached like 245km/h max and still was around 20 seconds faster. That shows how there's still potential to get much better times the next years
It also weighs something like 700 kg less than the Lotus, so I don't think the Evija will ever hit the cornering speeds the ID.R can achieve. It would be interesting to see if they can match the ID.R laptime though. Ultimately the Evija is eventually going to be sold in small numbers, so it can't just have a small 45 kWh battery like the ID.R, but needs a bigger 90 kWh battery (accounting for some of the weight difference) so it has decent range off the racetrack.
Well the idr uses slicks, so its way faster than the lotus. Its also a racecar and not street legal
@@janneshildebrandt1this Lotus also not street legal and uses slicks
I didn't try to argue which is better guys. Just that there's still a lot of potential to get even better times the next years.
Hammering down Fuchsröhre with 320 kph is nuts....
Jeeeesus. That thing just goes.
It survives the foxhole curb 😂
😮 people can drive!🙆🏼
Wow, just wow!
I bent two ribs watching this
the car may have more to give, but does the driver? Some already ludicrous speeds there.
Why did you angle the camera? Even being off center but faced straight out is better. I can't watch it cause it was turning my stomach.
345, incroyable, extraordinaire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OH. MY. GOD.
WTF!!!?? must be a fake video bcause this thing seems to teleport between corners, flying over bumps, but at exact same hight. Amazing. The future is awesome.
Yeah cool, now bring back the Elise!
The fact that a 2000 hp electric track car was 20 seconds slower than an 670 hp electric track car makes you wonder how or where they screwed up
massive weight difference
Looked a bit understeery in places so yes definitely more in there I think! that's some nutty performance for something that isn't a pure race machine. What tyres was it on?
It's a track only car on full slicks. I think the weight was a big issue. It's not light for a track only hypercar. That tends to be the side effect with all electric vehicles though.
Blue safery pin/keyring just lived its best life 😅
At Schwedenkreuz, this car has the same cornering speed as 992 GT3 RS (~240 km/h), a street legal car on street legal tires. So this electric prototype with ultra hardcore aero and god knows how much more tire performance does the same cornering speed. I can not see any achievement here. The laptime comes 100% from power and not from chassis and aero performance.
