Revealed at the Paris Auto Show, the S version of the Evora, powered by a supercharged 3.5-Litre V6 created quite a buzz.
“It’s the next level of Evora experience. It communicates with you better; the suspension setting has been fine tuned for added power and control so it responds even more to direction. It’s an instinctual car, the experience is pure,” said Dany Bahar Lotus’ CEO.
The Evora S comes with a standard Sport Pack a featuring a ‘Sport’ button that allows the driver to control throttle response and activate the exhaust bypass valve. Pushing the button also raises the instantaneous rev limit and changes the dynamic stability control settings, totally changing the driving experience. Also standard are cross-drilled brakes for improved cooling, performance.
