The Evora was a highly significant car for Lotus, launched in 2009 it was the first Lotus since the end of Esprit V8 production in 2003 to feature an engine of more than 4 cylinders. Styled more as a GT car, it offered a level of refinement and interior creature comforts just not seen in other Lotus’s of the time, and as such targeted other rivals….
….with decent luggage space both to the rear compartment and rear seat areas, and with genuine ease of use and overall refinement levels, these Evoras would make a fantastic companion for a long distance road trip, UK, Europe or otherwise. Their breadth of ability is surprisingly rounded for such a ‘junior’ exotic
The motor was Toyota’s 2GR-FE Quad-Cam unit of 3456 cc capacity and tweaked by Lotus to produce 280bhp. A beautifully smooth, revvy and musical engine, it is also majestically unstressed and offers supreme ease of maintenance for a sports car of this nature
With the usual attention that Lotus applies to all it’s cars, the Evora has a lightweight, bonded aluminium tub that offers supreme stiffness, massively powerful brakes, low centre of gravity, excellent weight balance, and delectably feelsome steering and balance. It’s a proper thoro’bred in all respects
This really is an exceptional example, and remains essentially true to it’s original factory specification other than for a later Kenwood infotainment system (replacing the original Alpine unit)
It drives wonderfully, tight with faultless dynamics in terms of it’s suspension, brakes, clutch, gearbox and drivetrain. Sounds fantastic, and goes very well indeed
In our view, whilst there are more powerful, and more expensive Evoras to be had, the 280bhp normally aspirated revvy unit in this car, with it’s manual (optional close ratio gearbox) 18″/19″ wheel combination, lightweight forged wheels and factory sports exhaust, just offers a fabulous balance, and these na Evoras have all the thrill, fun factor and dynamic ability of supercars 2 or 3 times the price
