The Lotus Elise S1 has been reborn as an ultra-fast-charging EV with an advanced new battery that charges in six minutes ⚡

Nyobolt CEO Dr Sai Shivareddy said the firm is looking to develop charging innovations"that cannot wait". With the ever-increasing uptake in electric cars in the UK and around the world, he believes a solution is required that will"slash charging times from hours to a few minutes."

The technology has also been produced to alleviate some of the barriers to battery development, for example slow charge times, access to battery materials, and battery degradation issues. According to Callum's managing director, Nyobolt's tech offers a solution to these problems. The significant implications of the battery technology housed within this future-looking concept are reinforced by Callum’s substantial overhaul of the original Elise’s design.

Callum's creative lead, Aleck Jones, said: “Rather than take a resto-mod approach, the aim was to evolve the design and bring it up to date, while keeping that understated, everyman sportscar feel that was so well received in the Elise. We needed to ensure that we maintained the right attitude with the body, so it’s nose-down, taking that same aggressive stance.

“Nyobolt’s technology allows this car to tick all the boxes that made the original Elise such a desirable drivers’ car with a cult following, but it’s electric. These two things don’t usually come hand-in-hand due to weight and battery packaging constraints.
