Lotus has released a new limited run special of its Evora S sports car that pays homage to the brand’s Formula 1 team. As such, it is painted in the racing team’s colors with black bodywork and gold-painted stripes on the hood, the profile and the roof, as well as a gold-hued “Lotus” decal at the rear.
The Evora S special, of which only three units will be produced, also features gold-colored 19-inch front and 20-inch rear alloy wheels, while the interior sports plenty of suede upholstery with red stitching.
The limited edition is based on the normal Evora S, meaning it is powered by a supercharged version of Toyota’s 3.5-liter V6 delivering 350HP matched to a six-speed manual gearbox.
The three customers who will snag the limited edition model will have to shell out £69,950 (US$109,823) – or £7,500 (US$11,775) more than the non-F1-painted version.
We can’t help but wonder if that’s what Herr Kalbfellmeant by intending to “make the world notice our cars”.
