Proud, beaming Lotus executives pulled the sheet from the new Lotus Evora 400 in front of a crowd of breathless spectators. And breathless they should be--this gorgeous new model, based on the classic 2+2 sports car Lotus Evora, is lighter, faster, and more powerful than ever before. It boasts a rise to 400 horsepower and 302 lb.-ft. of torque from a 2.5L supercharged V6 engine, and lapped Lotus' test track 6 seconds faster than its predecessor.
Drivers can also look forward to a cat-like, face-stretching acceleration: the new Lotus Evora 400, so named for its power output, can leap to 60 mph in just 4.1 seconds, and has a maximum top speed of right around 186 mph.
But words are words, and seeing is believing. Check out the official release at the motor show... and don't worry, there are close-up shots toward the end of the video so you get the full impact of this beautiful new supercar.
