Lotus Evora, a certified head-turner
September 5, 2008
Car spies knew it as the Lotus “2+2 Eagle” project and know it’s called the Evora. It is the car that made news at the London Motor Show. This is Lotus’ latest offering after the Elise was launched in the 1990s. This is a mid-engine designed by Russell Carr, carrying a 3.4 Liter V-6 engine which is made by Toyota.
When it comes to Lotus, we want to know about the weight. Well, it isn’t no Elise, but weighs a decent 2970 lbs. The price is going to around 45,000 pounds, probably to compete with Jaguar’s XK. The engine produces 276 Hp and 252 Lb. Ft. of torque. It is fast with a 0-60 in 4.9 seconds and a top speed of 159 Mph.
It has great handling and features all modern bells and whistles like Bluetooth and iPod integration. And considering how drop dead gorgeous it is, I think it’s definitely worth the bargain.
