Lotus RCR receives 3,800 orders in six days after launched in China

Lotus RCR was jointly launched by Chinese automaker Youngman Automobile Group and United Kingdom automaker Lotus on January 9 in Beijing. There are four options of the 1.6-liter RCR cars, which are priced between $17,800-20,500.

"We aimed to sell 30,000 units of RCRs this year," said Cui Wei, vice president of Youngman Auto, adding that the company will first import the completely built-up vehicles and later start assembling the completely-knocked-down or CKD kits.

The automaker also said it plans to launch 8 Lotus models with an engine size of between 1.6 litres and 3.0 litres, including sport car, sedan, SVU and MPV within the next four years. A little bit ambitious but the two partners are quite optimistic about the goal.
