2022 Porsche Taycan vs. 2022 Lotus Evija

When it comes to electric vehicles, the world is divided into two camps. There are those who love Tesla and those who hate it. The Lotus Evija is a car that might be able to change that. Let’s put the two of them side by side and see what happens.

Design & Style

• Exterior Design

The 2022 Porsche Taycan has a more aggressive look, with its large front grille and lower air intake. The Evija’s design doesn’t have as much personality or visual appeal.

The Taycan features excellent aerodynamics that help it go faster and handle better than the 2022 Lotus Evija.

• Interior Design

One of the biggest differences between the Taycan and the Evija is their interior designs. The Taycan’s interior boasts a much more luxurious look with its leather seats and wood trim, as well as a large touchscreen display that makes it easy to control everything from music to navigation. The Evija, on the other hand, has a more modern design with an open space for occupants inside and out (there’s no need for an “interior” in this case). You’ll also find plenty of room inside thanks to its spacious design—and unlike other electric vehicles that offer similar levels of comfort and space for passengers such as Tesla’s Model S sedan or Jaguar I-Pace crossover SUV, there aren’t any distractions here like dashboard displays that take away from your driving experience either!

Technology & Safety

In terms of safety, the 2022 Porsche Taycan has more active safety features than the 2022 Lotus Evija. It received five stars from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in rollover tests and four stars in frontal crash tests and side crash tests. In comparison, the 2022 Lotus Evija received two stars from NHTSA in rollover tests and five stars from NHTSA in frontal crash tests and side crash tests.

Performance

The 2022 Porsche Taycan has a 0-60 time of 2.5 seconds, while the 2022 Lotus Evija has a 0-60 time of 2.9 seconds. The 2022 Porsche Taycan can reach a top speed of 195 mph and has an average fuel consumption of 9 mpg city/16 mpg highway/11 mpg combined according to its manufacturer, while the 2022 Lotus Evija can reach a top speed of 170 mph and has an average fuel consumption of 18 mpg city/25 mpg highway with both vehicles having similar engine sizes in their respective models.

The Bottom Line

While the Lotus Evija is a great car in its own right, comparing it to the Porsche Taycan makes it clear that this electric vehicle is lacking. The Evija may be faster and more luxurious than its German counterpart, but it can’t match up to the Taycan’s superior technology or larger range of options.

If you’re looking for an electric vehicle with better performance than most cars on today’s market (as well as one that offers plenty of luxury), then consider buying a 2022 Porsche Taycan instead of a 2022 Lotus Evija.
