Lift/elevator, get in/enter, get off/get out
Hello, everyone!
Could you, please, help me?
Which variants are correct and more common for you?
1) Let's take the elevator/lift.
Let's call the elevator/lift.
Let's ride the elevator/lift.
Is there is some difference between elevator and lift?
2) when the elevator has arrived:
Let's get in!
Let's enter it!
3) when the elevator has arrived at the wanted/needed floor:
Let's get off the elevator!
Let's get out of the elevator!
If there are some grammar mistakes, could you, please, also correct them?
Thank you very much!

QUESTION 1: Lift = British ... Elevator = American
QUESTION 2: I would say Let's get in. Enter is not wrong, but it is a bit formal for that scenario
QUESTION 3: For me, either.

Numbers two and three are unnecessary. We all know what to do when the elevator arrives.
Was this a test question? Very odd if it was.
