Lotus Elan 2014 Future Car Review

A new Lotus Elan was propelled in Paris Auto Show, and for the first time, the model will not be available with a sunroof. This year, Hethel launched a bit of gauze, a motor roadster, which weighed little more than 1,700 pounds and run at 60 km / h in 7.1 seconds. It will prove to be one of the defining moments in motor sport history. The Elan was a great success, cash boosters needed in the Lotus coffers and used as reference for the modern sports car. A lot of the following products, both internally and externally. And the first generation Elan is widely much-admired as a master of Lotus, and one of the most gorgeous cars ever built.

In brief, the Lotus Elan, and we can assume that the revival of the name was not taken lightly. The success, if not an exact recreation is present: a car, which is presented in Paris is a £ 2,900, rear wheel drive coupe is due to, in the autumn of 2013. The power is in mid-mounted Toyota 4.0-liter V-6 from running at 7,800 rpm her, and uses forced induction, a word about that, to produce 444 hp and 343 Nm of torque.

Top speed is claimed at 193 km / h, and Lotus says 62 mph comes in 3.5 seconds. Two seats are standard, but as with the first Elan 2 +2 configuration will also be offered. A seven-speed transmission with double clutch gearbox is only available and a “push to pass” F1 hybrids of inspiration are elective. The cost is said to be around £ 75 000, what we hear is the approximate price in dollars.

Like the original, the Elan 14 sitting in the bottom half of the Lotus product range, which lies on a model lighter, cheaper and more targeted but less heavy faster and more expensive cars (Elite Paris announced, Spirit, and who remember the early Eterne high dollar as lotus flowers and Spirit Elite 1970 original). If nothing else, the corresponding is interesting; Lotus founder Colin Chapman used the first successful Elan and the ability to fund its growth, from luxury and drive Linkprofits through expensive deals with low volume. More lotus flowers are always a good thing, here’s hope this one lives up to its name.
