Lotus is pleased to announce a new collaborative partnership with CGI Finance to provide
financial services to Lotus dealers and retail finance to Lotus customers in France.
The partnership between Lotus Cars and CGI Finance, part of the Société Générale Group, will
enhance the wholesale financial offering for dealers in what is considered a hugely important
and influential market. It also marks an improved offering of financing and leasing products to customers in France, where there is strong demand for new models such as the new and highly
anticipated Evora 400, which recently made its French debut at the Salon Automobile de Lyon to
much acclaim.
Jean-Marc Gales, Chief Executive Officer for Group Lotus plc, stated, “We have 15 Lotus
dealers in France and they are very successful for Lotus. We are pleased to offer further support
to our dealer network with a complete range of financial products to improve the customer
offering. We are experiencing strong demand for new models such as the Evora 400 in the
French market and now with a new partnership with CGI Finance, we will be able to offer
customers in France more options to finance their next Lotus sports car.”
Dennis Verlinde, Head of Car Finance, CGI Finance said, “We have comprehensive experience
in the field of providing financial services for the premium automotive market in France. We will
undertake many activities in collaboration with Lotus as we further develop our financial products
for the future Lotus customer”
Since 1948, Lotus has been producing iconic, hand built, pure sports cars with benchmark
handling. Over the last two years, global sales figures have risen by 55% and the number of
dealers worldwide has increased from 138 in May 2014 to 202 currently. Lotus has focussed
efforts in France in recent years and has benefitted from a sales increase of 177% for the last
financial year. There are also plans to increase the number of dealerships in France by the end
of 2015, to further strengthen Lotus’ position in the market.
Those interested in more information regarding the finance offers available on Lotus cars in
France should contact their nearest dealer. The nearest dealer can be found by visiting
