Which country is the Lotus car from?
1 Answers
"Lotus" cars are divided into the British Lotus and China's Youngman Lotus. British Lotus is a famous British sports car brand, currently under Malaysia's Proton (Porton) Motors, and was introduced to China in 2011. Specific details are as follows: 1. Origin of the name: When Lotus first entered China, it faced issues with the Chinese name "Lotus" because there was already a Youngman Automobile Group's Lotus in China. After negotiations, Lotus adopted the transliterated name "Lutesi" in Chinese. 2. Lutesi: The founder of Lotus is Anthony Colin Bruce Chapman, and the ACBC in the Lotus logo stands for the initials of his name. Lotus is only translated as "Lutesi" in China-related contexts, while entities like the Lotus racing team are still referred to as the Lotus team.
