Lotus Evora 400 Hethel Edition
Latest Evora marks 50 years at Hethel, and there's more anniversary news coming...
Still, slightly unglamorous name aside, it appears an interesting addition to the Evora range. Mechanically identical to a standard 400, the Hethel Edition unsurprisingly trades on the Lotus heritage to mark it out. With input from Lotus Exclusive, it is offered in three iconic colour schemes: Essex Blue, Motorsport Black and Racing Green. Black or red leather is offered depending on the exterior colour (with Alcantara available too), but all Hethel Editions get forged silver wheels, contrasting brake calipers and the graphics set. There's a build plate inside as well, because what's a special edition without one of those?
"We are immensely proud" said CEO Jean-Marc Gales of the Hethel Edition. There are plans to celebrate Lotus's links to Norfolk throughout the rest of the year, but he also added that "more Lotus Hethel Anniversary news will be announced soon." Any guesses?
Until those are confirmed, the Hethel Edition is available with a list price of £75,500. A slight premium over the standard car, but presumably less than it would cost to create the same on your own through Lotus Exclusive. There will certainly be no missing any of them, especially if the black car comes with gold graphics... More Hethel anniversary news as soon as we have it!
why have a 400 with the inside like a dogs penis ! the 400 is a dead horse now the Sport 410 is here ! odd move.
Is there a market to even sell just one of these ?

Ah yes, 'troll', I believe.
It must be said that given that Porsche are making duller and duller cars these days ( stuff like the 911R don't count as they are not available to buy anyway ) it does seem that Lotus have a niche to grow into.
A new vanilla 911 is like a bloody Audi these days.
MrD, have you bought a dining table yet?
The guy doesn't even have a dining table in his tiny flat.
And Porsches are the ugliest car brand today.
Having said that this version of the Evora 400 does look st. Get rid of the stripes.
Thought it was common knowledge that *if* they do one it'll be built in China and aimed at the Asian markets.

I don't think they realise it is common knowledge yet
Edit: So it may well end up being a Rotus
