The 2010 Model Year Lotus Evora
Range Specification and Pricing
(EU and Switzerland)
First deliveries of the eagerly anticipated Lotus Evora will be
made to customers in Europe in May 2009 following an
extensive and rapid development programme, enabling the
whole project to be completed in an extraordinary 27 months,
almost unprecedented in the motor industry.
The Lotus Evora Launch Edition
The first 450 cars will be built to a high level standard specification which
includes the following equipment:
· 2+2 seating configuration
· Tech Pack
· Premium Pack
· Sport Pack
· Hi-power silver cast alloy wheels
· Bi-Xenon Headlamps
· Alpine Imprint Audio System
· Reversing Camera
· Electric Powerfold Mirrors
The Launch Edition includes either Ardent Red or British Racing Green as
standard, and all other colours from the Lotus range are available as a cost
option.
Following on from these first 450 Lotus Evora Launch Edition sportscars,
customers will have the opportunity to spec to a more personal level – but of
course they will not be part of the select few who will be among the first to own
Britain’s latest sportscar and one of the most anticipated cars of the year,
complete with a unique Evora commemorative build plate in the cabin.
The Lotus Evora in Summary (please see the separate Evora press
information for more detail)
The Lotus Evora will enter the sportscar market as the only mid-engined 2+2 in
production. The new car is a more holistic offering than the Elise, Europa and
Exige models that have been so massively popular and iconic. The Lotus
Evora is designed for people who desire exotic sportscar characteristics of
stunning design, exclusivity, dramatic proportions and performance. However,
it offers real-world usability and a unique sense of occasion. Powered by a 3.5-
litre V6 producing 280 PS and 342 Nm of torque, the new car employs
innovative lightweight chassis technology to ensure all-round dynamic
performance, in keeping with the great Lotus tradition.
Straight line performance is spectacular, with the zero to 100 km/h sprint
taking place in just over 5 seconds with a top speed of over 260 km/h
(prototype figures). Economy and emissions figures are class leading with the
Official European Combined Cycle fuel economy being just 8.7 litres / 100 km
and the emissions being just 205 g / km CO2. The other fuel economy figures
are equally impressive with Official European Urban Cycle figures of 12.4 litres
/ 100 km and 6.5 litres / 100 km for the Official European Extra Urban Cycle.
Inside, the Lotus Evora cocoons occupants with sumptuous leather surfaces
juxtaposed with contemporary high-tech features. With driver focused
instrumentation the occupants sit in cockpit-esque surroundings. A beautifully
appointed dash boasts tactile details such as flush-mounted controls that glow
with blue LED haloes and a stylised speedometer and rev counter ensuring
that controls are both attractive and accessible. Styled in-house by Lotus
Design, the Evora’s sophisticated and attention-snaring lines brilliantly
disguise its ability to accommodate passengers in the rear of the cabin, giving
the car the external characteristics of a small, nimble sportscar belying its real
exterior and internal space. As well as being sold in a 2+2 configuration, the
car will also be available as a two-seater, the space in the rear being allocated
to luggage storage. Other derivatives are also planned for the long term future,
including a convertible and a version with automatic transmission.
The first production Lotus Evoras have already started down the assembly line
at Lotus’ high tech manufacturing facilities in Worcester UK (where the
advanced extruded and bonded aluminium chassis is made) and at the Lotus
Headquarters in Hethel UK. Build volumes are expected to ramp up steadily
over the next few months with a target of 34 Lotus Evoras being made each
week by July 2009. This manufacturing volume is in addition to the current
build volume for Lotus small car platform vehicles (Elise, Exige, Europa and 2-
Eleven) of 44 per week building to 55-60 per week in the run up to the northern
hemisphere summer.
For peace of mind, the Lotus Evora has a 3 year 100,000 km (60,000 miles)
whole vehicle warranty with an 8 years chassis perforation warranty for EU
markets.
