• New Lotus Evora 400 now available to drive at Hethel test track
• New Elise and Exige models added to Lotus Driving Academy
fleet
• New Evora and Exige Experience packages launched

 

The Lotus Driving Academy is pleased to announce the addition of the new, critically acclaimed
Evora 400 to its fleet. What’s more, the entire fleet is renewed, with five Elise 220 Cup, two Exige
S and one Exige S Club Racer model joining the new Evora 400 and now available to drive on
the famed Hethel test track at Lotus’ Norfolk HQ.
Jean-Marc Gales, Chief Executive Officer of Group Lotus plc, commented: “We are pleased to
offer potential customers and track driving enthusiasts the opportunity to drive the new Lotus
Evora 400 and our other high-performance models at our Hethel test track. Lotus prides itself on
offering benchmark handling and pure driving experience and the Evora 400, developed at
Hethel, is the latest proof of this concept. To drive the Evora 400 at the very track used
throughout the model development process is a truly unique and privileged opportunity and we
are delighted to be able to offer this experience to the public.”
The Lotus Driving Academy rewards passionate car enthusiasts – including the Lotus driver of
today and tomorrow – with an unforgettable driving experience. Those attending one of the Elise,
Exige and now Evora Experience can explore the performance of Lotus’ very latest sports cars
on a purpose-built test track facility, under the guidance of world-class instructors who are skilled
at teaching drivers how to get the best out of the car and themselves.
To coincide with the launch of the new fleet, the Lotus Driving Academy also launches two brand
new driving experiences, the Exige Experience and Evora Experience. These will run alongside
the hugely successful Elise Experience that has been part of the Lotus Driving Academy’s
programme for several years.
The first ever Evora Experience will take place on 30 October for six lucky customers who will be
among the first members of the public to drive the Evora 400 on the famous Hethel test track.
The Evora Experience costs £349 and includes a vehicle dynamics briefing, two 20 minute track
driving sessions, a Lotus factory tour and a tour of the motorsport facility.
The Exige Experience costs £299 and includes a vehicle dynamics briefing, two 20 minute track
driving sessions, a Lotus factory tour and a tour of the motorsport facility.

  • S3 Elise Brakes

    Since owning my Elise 240 Final Edition I've felt that the brakes weren't the best. Seemed to lack initial bite and lacked "feel" through the pedal. Over the past few weeks I've had 2 occasions when driving in the rain where I've gone to brake and found there to be very little there, had to press the pedal a few times and wondered whether I was going to stop in time - not a comfortable feeling. As I'd never been keen on the feel of the brakes I always planned to change the pads at some poin

    S1 Type 49 Elise Refresh

    And so the winter refresh of my S1 Elise started today. Hoping to take front clam of tomorrow. However of the 4 lower bolts that hold the lower rear to the chassis, 2 are spinning and 2 won't budge despite copious amounts of penetrative oil over the last few months. The Eagle eyed will spot my Dremel tool which I'm not looking forward to using to remove 4 bolt heads that have limited access. Currently on my list are replacing the driving lights brackets, shot blast and paint the tow post, n

    Lakes District

    Guys, I am planning a break in the lakes district for a chill drive taking in the views. I am wondering if anyone has driven all the popular passes in an S2 Exige? Any I should skip for sure? Cheers

    Newbie

    Firstly, I just thought I’d make a post to say thanks for letting me join, seems like a friendly forum. I don’t own an Elise currently, but ever since I had some passenger laps around donington park as a teenager a good 15 years ago I’ve always wanted one. Currently have an mr2 and want to stick with a Toyota engine, so I gather I’m looking at an S or 111r model? Hope to see some people at some meets soon.
