The new Lotus Evora 400 is the most powerful production Lotus ever, a superior machine to the previous model in every aspect. Over two thirds of the Evora 400 is new, including its supercharged and charge-cooled mid-mounted 3.5-litre V6 engine. Power has been increased to 400bhp, while torque has also been increased to 410Nm.

A completely new aluminium chassis and significantly revised lightweight composite body means the new model is 42kg lighter than the previous model. The new Evora 400 is also ergonomically more refined, with easier cabin entry and exit, enhancing everyday usability.

Dynamically more capable, lighter and faster, with revised spring and damper settings and a Limited Slip Differential (LSD), the new Evora 400 offers a more involving, sharper and more focused driving experience compared with the outgoing model.
