Lotus Evora S (2010) CAR review

Lotus Evora S (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 01 November 2010 16:31

This is the new Lotus Evora S, and with the help of a supercharger, its 3.5-litre V6 has been boosted from the standard Evora’s 276bhp and 252lb ft, to 345bhp and 295lb ft. Enough, Lotus hopes, to shake off criticism that the Evora just isn’t quick enough; it’s that car’s only real fault, so has the extra power turned the ...

Lotus Evora (2009): the new CAR review

Lotus Evora (2009): the new CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

So Lotus is rinsing out another Elise variant, eh? No, the Evora really is new, the first all-new Lotus for nearly 15 years in fact. It’s built to take on the likes of the Porsche Cayman and 911 and slots into the Lotus range above the Elise and below the forthcoming Esprit. You might have read our innovative, real-time test drive ...

Lotus 2-Eleven (2009) n/a CAR review

Lotus 2-Eleven (2009) n/a CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

The Government hates the car, and whether that’s true (or whether they just like taxing the motorist), there’s no getting away from the fact that life on the road can be pretty hard. So we need to escape, yet supercars are big and unpractical and out of the reach of almost all of us. Thus the track car came into ...

Lotus Eco Elise (2009) green CAR review

Lotus Eco Elise (2009) green CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

CAR's test of the Lotus Eco Elise has an inauspicious start. I slip into the driver's seat – with that swing-legs-in-haul-your-weight-around gymnastic routine familiar to generations of Elise owners – and thumb the start button. The first few hundreds yards confirm the Elise's rich DNA. Who doesn't love Hethel's back-to-basics purity? The tiny rim squirming in your palms, the wings' ...

Lotus 2-Eleven s/c (2008) CAR review

Lotus 2-Eleven s/c (2008) CAR review

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Nick Trott, 24 September 2008 09:00

The 2-Eleven is the most track-focused road car Lotus has ever built. And we’ve emphasised the ‘road car’ bit because despite the wings and splitters and launch control and racing stripes the Lotus 2-Eleven can be driven to the shops. There is a track-only version that does without lights, a horn, etc. but having driven the 2-Eleven comprehensively on the ...

Lotus Elise S (2006) CAR review

Lotus Elise S (2006) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Angus Fitton, 31 July 2006 05:04

I'm stumped. It looks exactly the same as the Elise R, so why's it here? When Rover died the entry level, K-Series-powered Elise went with it along with a loyal customer base that couldn't stretch to a whopping £29,945 (in basic trim) for the Toyota-powered 'R'. Meet the 'S', the new entry level Elise. It's £6000 cheaper than the 'R' ...
