UK-based automotive stalwart Lotus has unveiled its latest and greatest luxury supercar in the form of the Lotus Evora GT410 Sport, a high-performance vehicle that is designed to make Lotus enthusiasts forget about the impressive Evora Sport 410.
Much of the performance upgrades available with the Evorta GT410 Sport have to do with its ultra-lightweight construction, which makes ample use of carbon fiber as well as intelligent engineering such as a shrunk rear wing for reduced downforce.
This combination of intelligent material use and thoughtful structural design allow this luxury supercar to combine the best merits of a lightweight body and a heavy supercharged engine, a fine example of comprehensive automotive engineering designed to please car enthusiasts with a need for speed. This is a vehicle that squarely targets the high end of the already exclusive high-performance supercar segment.
