Lotus Evora S 2+2 (2012) long-term test review

Lotus Evora S 2+2 (2012) long-term test review

Rated 4 out of 54

the CAR road test team, 17 May 2012 12:00

The key to unlocking our Lotus Evora S – 17 May 2012 As you’ll read about in the new June 2012 issue (out now) the entire CAR team recently decamped to north Wales for a few days of thrashing each others long-termers around secluded Snowdonian roads. We drove, we ate, we drank, the cars drank (Anthony’s RS3 more than most) and Greg Fountain ...

Lotus Exige S (2012) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Barry, 25 April 2012 00:01

Lotus stopped building the four-cylinder Exige a little while back, but the name returns with this, the new 2012 Exige S. It uses the old Exige’s basic tub and centre section, but combines it with new front bodywork and – the big news – a supercharged V6 from the Evora S that’s shrouded in all-new rear bodywork. What does the ...

Lotus Elise (2010) first drive CAR review

Lotus Elise (2010) first drive CAR review

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Ben Barry, 19 April 2010 09:24

You’ll struggle to spot the difference, but this is the third-generation 2010-spec Lotus Elise. The basic chassis, brakes and dimensions remain unchanged, but the styling is subtly tweaked (the headlights are the stand-out change, but many of the panels are gently finessed) and the base model now has a 1.6-litre Toyota-sourced engine located amidships and a six-speed gearbox to replace ...

Lotus Evora (2009): the new CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Chris Chilton, 12 May 2009 09:00

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 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

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' ...
