Lotus Elise TRUCK

[Lotus Lewis]

Sorry if re-post

but ive just came across this



Apparently encouraged by media response to their APX sport utility vehicle concept, which debuted at the Geneva Motor Show, Lotus has developed a unique ultralight sport truck.

Although owing much to the ground-breaking Chevy El Camino and Ford Ranchero�pickup/passenger car combinations, the Lotus concept has been updated for the carbon-fiber millenium to produce what must be the world's lightest truck.

With a nod to the U.S. target market, the Elise-based sport truck is powered by a lightweight American ultra-small-block engine, with supercharging by Lotus Engineering
