Performance never looked better

It’s the era of Emira and the Emira 420 Sport is leading the narrative.

“With the Emira 420 Sport we have built on the supercar design to create a more dynamic and overtly sporty look. We shrink-wrap the surfaces over the mechanical components. This creates a visually compelling package that delivers real aerodynamic improvements.”

Russell Carr | Director of Design

MAJESTIC X AERODYNAMIC

Highlights are the more aggressive front splitter, front air intakes, front wheel arch vents, extended side sills, side intakes and louvred tailgate. Giving the car a design you can’t resist and performance you can’t compare.

AERODYNAMIC X PERFORMANCE

Aero enhancements deliver a 30% increase in exhaust valve cooling airflow, 15% increase in airflow to outboard radiators, improved cooling and an increased downforce of +25kg — while maintaining the Emira’s standard drag level.

Looking for an additional edge on the track? The number plate and brake duct blanking panel are removable — increasing radiator inflow and front brake cooling.

TANGELO ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK

Say hello to Tangelo Orange —the premier paint of the Emira 420 Sport. A flaming manifestation of the car’s character and capabilities and continuation of our history of vibrant and bespoke Lotus colourways, like Exige Orange.

With a presence as demanding as its performance, this Emira is designed to captivate.

CRAFTED CUSTOMISATION
