Lotus 2-Eleven
Okay. So you’re a well-heeled track day enthusiast, and your Elise just isn’t cutting it anymore. What’s a Lotus lover to do?
Well, Colin Chapman’s boys will soon be able to outfit you with a new 2-Eleven. This 1,477-pound flyweight promises lively performance, what with its 252 brake-horsepower engine.
Initially available only in “Launch Edition” specification (tri-color Lotus Sport paint scheme and related decals), buyers will have to choose from two different versions. Road Going, which is street legal (under the UK’s Single-Vehicle Approval provision), includes necessities like lighting, a single-plane rear wing, and a catalytic converter. The Track Only model adds enhanced aerodynamic fitments (carbon fiber wing, more aggressive front splitter, and so on), along with brake lights and rear indicators, and an FIA-approved race seat.
What price track day glory? £39,995 (around $78,500US).
