Bearing the same engine and supercharger as the new Elise SC, the 2008 Lotus Exige S produces 218 HP and 156 lb ft of torque from a high revving 1.8 liter Toyota built 2ZZ engine. The engine displays impressive flexibility making the car more relaxed yet instantly responsive - with exceptional acceleration throughout the RPM range.
The Exige S blazes to 60 MPH in a mere 4.1 seconds and whizzes past 100 MPH in just 11 seconds. Precise steering, outstanding suspension, gripping Yokohama tires and 100 pounds of downforce at 100 MPH, gives the Exige the kind of handling that made Lotus legendary.
This combination of unbelievable performance and incredible handling elevates the 2008 Exige S to a whole new level.
