Lotus Releases Full Evora Details Including Standard Equipment and Options - LotusTalk

Administrator · 03-10-2009, 01:04 PM

Lotus has just released a long list of details on the upcoming Evora mid-engine 2+2 sportscar, with all the standard equipment and option packs available. This list is technically for Euro-spec models, however, the release clearly states, (and Lotus Cars USA PR Boss Kevin Smith confirmed) that the U.S.-spec model will be very close.

Powered by a 3.5-liter V6 engine that makes 276hp at 6400 rpm and 252 ft-lbs of torque at 4700 rpm, the Evora will hit 60 mph in just five seconds and go on to a top speed of 160 mph. Fuel economy is rated at 12.4 and 6.5 liters/100 km (city/highway) - which works out to 19/36 mpg. The combined rating is 8.7 liters/100 km or 27 mpg.

Standard equipment includes 18-inch front and 19-inch rear wheels with 225/40/18 and 255/35/19 tires. Cast wheels will be standard with forged models optional.

The brakes will be AP racing four-piston calipers with front 13.8-inch rotors and rear 13.1-inch rotors. ABS and electronic brake distribution will also be standard.

Did they give you a price? I didn't see one in the article or on the site.

There is not an official US pricing yet, but it won't be too far off of $70k.

And that's what I was told, so going on that possible pretense. Was guaranteed if there was a drastic variance, I could bow out. Right now I'm just hoping it lands here.

Talk about my dream car... in set up at-least. I think it's way overpriced and should be around 50k.

I'm officially on the second or third hand buyer list!
