Lotus delivered fewer than 7000 cars and posted a net loss of $750 million (£594m) in 2023 but says it remains on track to achieve its ambitious transformation objectives over the coming years.
In its first earnings report since going public in February, the company said it is making "steady progress" towards the aims of its Vision80 business strategy – under which it plans to crack 150,000 annual sales a year by 2028.
Last year, Lotus sold 6970 cars (for revenues of $679m), which is a record for the brand but still less than 5% of the volumes it plans to be achieving in just four years' time.
