The foregoing

of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise be subject to the liabilities
of that section, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of LCAA under the Securities Act or the Exchange
Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filings. This Current Report will not be deemed an admission as to the materiality
of any of the information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibits 99.1.
As previously announced, on January 31,
2023, LCAA, Lotus Technology Inc., an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”
or “Lotus Tech”), Lotus Temp Limited, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the Cayman
Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lotus Tech (“Merger Sub 1”), and Lotus EV Limited, an exempted company limited
by shares incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lotus Tech (“Merger Sub 2”)
entered into the Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended and restated by the First Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger,
dated as of October 11, 2023 and as may be further amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger
Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, (i) Merger Sub 1 will merge with and into LCAA (the “First
Merger”), with LCAA surviving the First Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Lotus Tech (the surviving entity of the First
Merger, “Surviving Entity 1”), and (ii) immediately following the consummation of the First Merger, Surviving
Entity 1 will merge with and into Merger Sub 2 (the “Second Merger”, and together with the First Merger, collectively,

US$3,000,000 has elected to terminate such investment commitment.
Forward-Looking Statements
This current report (the “Current
Report”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are based on beliefs and assumptions
and on information currently available to LCAA and Lotus Tech.
All statements other than statements
of historical fact contained in this Current Report are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements
by the following words: “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,”
“intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,”
“project,” “potential,” “continue,” “ongoing,” “target,” “seek”
or the negative or plural of these words, or other similar expressions that are predictions or indicate future events or prospects, although
not all forward-looking statements contain these words. These statements are based upon estimates and forecasts and reflect the views,
assumptions, expectations, and opinions of LCAA and Lotus Tech, which involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual
results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking
statements. Any such estimates, assumptions, expectations, forecasts, views or opinions, whether or not identified in this Current Report,
should be regarded as preliminary and for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of
future results. Although each of LCAA and Lotus Tech believes that it has a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained
in this Current Report, each of LCAA and Lotus Tech caution you that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors
currently known and projections of the future, which are inherently uncertain. In addition, there are risks and uncertainties described
in the definitive proxy statement/prospectus in the registration statement on Form F-4 relating to the proposed transaction filed
by Lotus Tech with the SEC and other documents filed by LCAA or Lotus Tech from time to time with the SEC. These filings may identify
and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those expressed
or implied in the forward-looking statements. Neither LCAA nor Lotus Tech can assure you that the forward-looking statements in this Current
Report will prove to be accurate. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the ability
to complete the business combination due to the failure to obtain approval from LCAA shareholders or satisfy other closing conditions
in the Merger agreement, the occurrence of any event that could give rise to the termination of the Merger agreement, the ability to recognize
the anticipated benefits of the business combination, the amount of redemption requests made by LCAA public shareholders, costs related
to the transaction, the risk that the transaction disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation
of the transaction, the outcome of any potential litigation, government or regulatory proceedings and other risks and uncertainties, including
those included under the heading “Risk Factors” in the registration statement on Form F-4 filed by Lotus Tech with the
SEC and those included under the heading “Risk Factors” in the annual report on Form 10-K of LCAA and in its subsequent
quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and other filings with the SEC. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking
statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by LCAA or Lotus Tech, their respective directors,
officers or employees or any other person that LCAA or Lotus Tech will achieve their objectives and plans in any specified time frame,
or at all. The forward-looking statements in this Current Report represent the views of LCAA and Lotus Tech as of the date of this Current
Report. Subsequent events and developments may cause those views to change. However, while LCAA and Lotus Tech may update these forward-looking
statements in the future, LCAA and Lotus Tech specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, except to the extent required by applicable
law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing the views of LCAA and Lotus Tech as of any date
subsequent to the date of this Current Report. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.

Tech has filed a registration statement on Form F-4 with the SEC that includes a prospectus with respect to Lotus Tech’s securities

Exhibit 99.1
Lotus Tech and L Catterton Asia Acquisition
Corp Announce Closing of Business Combination
Lotus Tech’s American Depositary Shares to
Begin Trading on the Nasdaq on February 23, 2024 under Ticker Symbol “LOT”
New York and Singapore - February 20, 2024
– Lotus Technology Inc. (“Lotus Tech” or the “Company”), a leading global luxury electric vehicle maker,
and L Catterton Asia Acquisition Corp (“LCAA”) (NASDAQ: LCAA), a special purpose acquisition company formed
by affiliates of L Catterton, a leading global consumer-focused investment firm, announced today that their previously proposed
business combination is expected to be completed on February 22, 2024. The combined company will retain Lotus Tech's name as “Lotus
Technology Inc.” and its American Depositary Shares (ADS) will commence trading on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “LOT”
on February 23, 2024. The business combination was approved by LCAA shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting held
on February 2, 2024.
Integrating Lotus’s sports car DNA with a new generation of premium
lifestyle vehicles, Lotus Tech is committed to transforming the brand into an advanced, fully electric, intelligent, and sustainable luxury
mobility provider before its 80th anniversary in 2028. The Company has already set this ambitious plan in motion by launching
a leading product portfolio of high-performing battery electric vehicles (“BEVs”) ahead of other global luxury automakers.
These BEVs include Eletre, a new breed of all-electric hyper-SUV powered by Lotus’s proprietary 800-volt EPA, and Emeya, an all-electric
hyper-GT among the most advanced vehicles of its kind in the world. With both BEVs already on the roads and two more fully electric models
planned for launch over the next two years, Lotus Tech is on track to become the first traditional luxury automotive brand to achieve
a 100% electric product portfolio by 2027.
Since the transaction was announced, the Company has raised more than
US$880 million in pre-closing and private investment in public equity (“PIPE”) financing commitments from global investors,
existing shareholders, and strategic partners, representing one of the largest amounts of additional financings raised in connection with
a de-SPAC transaction since 2023.
“We are thrilled to announce our upcoming debut on the Nasdaq
as we complete our business combination with LCAA,” said Mr. Qingfeng Feng, Chief Executive Officer of Lotus Tech. “This
is a pivotal moment in our journey. We look forward to accelerating our growth as a listed company, leading the electric transformation
of the global luxury BEV market together with L Catterton."
“Our partnership with Lotus Tech has gotten stronger over time
and our respect for the mission it is on has only increased,” said Chinta Bhagat, Co-Chief Executive Officer of LCAA. “We
are excited about the road ahead as we continue building the definitive luxury electric vehicle brand together, leveraging our global
consumer insights and our strategic relationship with LVMH. Lotus Tech’s upcoming debut on the Nasdaq will be a key milestone in
its journey and we believe that the Company will have many more achievements to celebrate over the coming years.”
Lotus Tech will ring the Nasdaq opening bell in New York City on February 23,
2024 to commemorate the Company's public listing. A live stream of the event can be viewed at https://www.nasdaq.com/marketsite/bell-ringing-ceremony.
