Background.

Introduced as a more refined and practical alternative to the track-focused Elise and Exige, the Evora combined the marque’s trademark lightweight handling with improved comfort and usability and was designed to compete with benchmarks like the Porsche Cayman.

Powered by a Toyota-sourced, 3.5-litre V6 (2GR-FE) enhanced by bespoke Lotus software, and offering 276bhp, 0-60 in 4.9 seconds (IPS) and 162mph, the Evora delivered strong performance alongside legendary Toyota reliability.
