Lotus has been releasing teaser photos of a new Lotus Evora variant. It has wheel-arch cutouts for the front and rear wheel arches and an utterly enormous wing.

It remains to be seen whether it will be road legal, but it looks to be the Evora equivalent of the Exige 380 Cup. It's anyone's guess as to power output but 430bhp seems reasonable. There will be lots of carbon-fibre, as per the Sport 410 Evora.

Pictures and video on Twitter:

Here's a comparison that someone's done between the wheel arch vent 'teaser' photo and a standard Evora 400.

MrDemon (or whatever he calls himself this week) will be along to tell us that it's more expensive, slower, less exclusive and not as well built as whatever German borefest he's driving at the moment.

I bet it will be more expensive, but my guess is a 430 Cup. (or a crazy price GTE) And yes it's won't be as well built lol

The thing is the new 500BHP GT3 is 110k so it's a tough market to crack and I can only state facts.

Lotus need to supply some orders or fix some warranty cars, not keep bringing new stuff you cannot order ! or you can order but will never get !
They seem to have a parts shortage so what ever it is it needs to be a 2nd car as they won't be able to fix it when you take it back for some more glue !

I have been asking for a Sprint test drive for about 3 months, no cars, I know people who have ordered Exiges with Carbon parts no cars, again people ordered Evora 410's , no cars !!!

It's a brave mans choice Lotus these days.
F**k me you're tedious
