Factory-Approved Mansory Lotus Evora Due At Geneva
Yes, you read that right. Lotus has brought Mansory in to go to work on its Evora...
Well, um, probably not if you choose to do it with Mansory. But that's exactly what Lotus has done.
This is the Mansory-tweaked Evora, Lotus having teamed up with the German tuner to create a rather special concept for the Geneva show.
The strange thing is, considering Mansory's epic reputation for creating automotive monstrosities (you can see some of our 'favourites' at the bottom of this article), Mansory seems to have been impressively restrained. Dare we say we quite like it?
Lotus is keeping quiet on the exact details of its Geneva show 'star', but it is most definite that this is not a freshened-up version of the Evora.
We reckon Lotus and Mansory have missed a bit of a trick, though - if they're going to make Lotuses more expensive and heavier (as the Mansory additions almost certainly will), why not do it more extravagantly in the traditional Mansory mould? How about a bright-purple paint job on the Evora, or a gold-plated Elise?
In fact, this sounds like a call to arms for all the PH Photoshop-istas out there to create your own Mansory-ised Lotuses. So come on, show us (and Lotus) what you can do. You never know, Hethel might commission you to actually make it...

.The car looks alright as it is, I'll take one without the carbon bits. They made the big presentation of the new Lotus models in the next few years, and now they're making a current model look like those cars, weird.
Presumably this move must be because sales are way below what is needed and this development is not the answer. I fear for Lotus in this new era cost bracket.
