Elise (England, 2015)

The Elise takes a historic place in the Lotus line-up. While the design aesthetics of this version still resemble the lines of older versions, the styling and practicality have been revised. With a 2.0 litre inline 4 pressure charged engine delivering up to 320 PS, the Elise 2015 should reach 0-100kph in under 4.5 seconds.

The Elise is regarded as the brands entry-level car. Therefore, it is made to embody the characteristic Lotus driving experience and inherits the cheeky charm of its predecessors, its performance at lightweight and easy handling.

At the Paris Motor Show 2010 Lotus unveiled five new models, the Eterne, the Esprit, the Elise, Elite and the Elan, that were to reach the market over a time span of five years. The Elise is predicted to launch in 2015.
