Lotus Cars is a British manufacturer of sports and racing cars based at Hethel, Norfolk, England. The company is famous for designing and building landmark race and production automobiles of extremely light weight and possessing legendary handling characteristics.
There have been many Lotus cars come and go, below are just few: The Lotus
Carlton (1990-1992) was a tuned version of the standard Vauxhall saloon (designated Lotus 104). Lotus
Excel (1985-1992). Lotus
Eclat (1975-1982) was a fastback version of the Elite. The rear roof line of the Elite was sloped down into a sporty fastback. Lotus
Elite Describes two cars, one an ultra-light two-seater coupé produced from 1957 to 1962, one an angular 3 door hatch with a back bone chassis produced from 1974 to 1982. Lotus
Elan - Two generations of Elan were produced, both extremely innovative for their time. The first, in the 1960s, was a small light roadster that made use of the Lotus-trademark steel backbone frame, coupled with a fibre glass body. This car was the design inspiration for the 1990 Mazda MX-5 / Miata. The second Elan was an innovative front-drive sports-convertible. Lotus
Europa - 1966-1975 mid-engine sports car, the first affordable mid-engined road car ever produced. Lotus Elan - The second Elan, released in 1989, was a technical tour de force but one that also defied Lotus' 'performance through light weight' tradition, to its detriment. The idea of a front-drive Lotus, powered by a turbo-charged engine, was a brave concept and its cornering performance was undeniable. But the handling was negatively compared to the original Elan by some Lotus loyalists and its relatively high price (vs., e.g., the Mazda MX-5) meant that it was not a sales success. Lotus
Espirit - A mid-engined sports car, launched in the early 1970s. The Esprit shocked many at its launch; its geometric, laser-cut lines seemed far more futuristic than anything on the road -- or on the cinema screen, for that matter (the car prominently featured in the 1977 Bond film The Spy Who Loved Me and briefly in For Your Eyes Only; later versions of the Esprit featured in the 1990 film Pretty Woman and in Basic Instinct). The styling was by Italian designer Giorgetto Giugiaro. The Esprit started with a light, high-strung 4-cylinder design, which went through several iterations of turbo-charging and electronic upgrades, before finally being replaced by a highly-advanced V8. The last Lotus
Esprit rolled off the production line on 20 February 2004, after 28 years in production. A total of 10,675 Esprits were built since production began in 1976.
