Lotus is going to release a record of Nürburgring

Company Lotus is going during next two years to release "the fastest road car" of the Northern loop of Nürburgring. This was announced by the head of the British brand Jean-Marc Jale. The manufacturer is planing to build a successor to the 2-Eleven Speedster track, presented in 2007. The novelty will have completely different design and more powerful engine. Extreme sport car, the mass of which will not exceed 900 kilos will have 3.5-liter with 406 horsepower V6 engine. Jale also noted that "Lotus" so far does not intend to exploit their own power units. "Why do we need to create our own units, spending on this fabulous tool? We can buy the V6 motors from Toyota, -explained the head of "Lotus".
During the next two years, the Brits are going to release an open-hood version of the sports coupe Evora, as well as to update the Exige family. The model will receive a number of stylistic changes and procure 406-strong "six" 3.5.
The same engine will have the new modification of Evora, which will debut in early March at the Geneva Motor Show. Sports car can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.1 seconds and its top speed is electronically limited at 300 kilometers per hour.
