Camillus Knives Usn Navy Issue

Lotus Parigi 2010: LEAK

LAST UPDATE: 9.30 h.17: 15
22:58 pm the night before the fateful September 30: the first confirmation from those who come to the salon is already entered. The car will be totally new to the Lotus stand FIVE .

New Elise: No, not the redesign presented in February, but a completely new model! (4-cylinder, 320 hp, 1095 kg)
Elite : already seen last week, the concept of 2 +2 coupe / convertible.
Elan : very bad (and stylistically very Lambo) Sport 2 +2, can substitute for the future of Evora and rival of the 911 (4.0 V6 400 hp, 1295 kg)
Eternal : four doors, stylistically very similar to Elite
Esprit : return, highly anticipated, the historic supercar. In the 458 viewfinder Italy, the price will be stratospheric (5.0 V8, 620 hp, 1450 kg, 330 km / h, 0-100 in 3.4 seconds)

All models feature a clean style, very clear with the past. Forget the soft lines and retro Elise S1, Donato Coco has revolutionized everything (for better and, alas, even worse). See you soon, more updates soon!

UPDATE 1: Here is a picture of the stand by a user of Seloc : in the foreground the new Elise (!), Then the Elite, Elan (yellow) and the Esprit ...


UPDATE 2: here is the new Galla .. er, Elan! It seems very successful ...


UPDATE 3 : ecco il posteriore della Esprit, finalmente! La foto è abbastanza pessima, difficile giudicare bene da ora, ma pare essere molto molto cattiva...


UPDATE 4 : si svela la coupè quattro porte Eterne; non sono un grande fan della categoria, ma il risultato sembra davvero gradevole (altro che Panamera...)


UPDATE 5 : nuove foto della Esprit. Prima impressione: bella e cattivissima, ma stilisticamente poteva essere differenziata maggiormente dalla Elan (l'anteriore sembra quasi un copia-incolla).


6 UPDATE: This should be the new Elise. A partial disappointment to be honest ... the family feeling with the other concept is very clear but it appears to be the worst managed of the lot. Not to mention that if the technical data are true, we are talking about 320 hp and 1095 kg .. that there is dangerously alongside the band dominated by Boxster/TT/Z4. The roof on this concept seems to be glass and fixed, but surely the Elise will be a plaque as the current and likely will have a hard-top in addition to the traditional classic canvas roof. The latter I do not mind, there is also some reference to the S2, but the front with that face and eyes from AIS to China told me recently ...


UPDATE 7: other photos of the stand with the concept. Esprit in the foreground, then Elan, Elite, Elise.


8 UPDATE: A short video of the car at the VIP presentation took place last night. Only three hours to end the embargo and the official press conference.



9 UPDATE: The live press conference has just ended. I'm already writing a post con le mie impressioni sui vari modelli, nell'attesa delle foto ufficiali...

Lotus Parigi 2010 : Elite Concept


Anche se in questo momento, alle ore 10 del 20 settembre, non c'è ancora traccia di un comunicato ufficiale, sbucano grazie ad Automobilemag e ai forum d'oltremanica le foto e i dettagli della prima delle novità tanto sbandierate da Lotus nelle ultime settimane. Si tratta di una grossa 2+2 coupè-cabriolet, anche se non è chiaro se la versione di serie, prevista per il 2014, sfrutterà l'opportunità del tetto rigido retraibile. La Elite Concept si presenta con uno stile fortemente innovativo per la casa di Hethel, a tratti un po' Mazda, a bit 'Tesla, very Aston, but also a little' Ferrari. The result, which arises from the pencil of the former Ferrari driver Donato Coco seems to be well managed, particularly through the front very aggressive and dynamic profile sculpted taut lines. The latter leaves me personally quite a few 'doubtful ...


should be hiding under the skin instead of the 5.0 V8 of the Lexus IS-F, mid-front mounted, and equipped with a compressor capable of delivering 540 hp, 620 or even in a "S" . Integrated in the transmission there are two electric motors and a KERS (probably optional on the production car), and to complement the current high-tech change will only be available in automatic version with paddles on the steering wheel. The weight should read instead many kg in 1750, but not too bad considering the features that are absolutely important. More than anything there is to get used to the expected price of more than € 130 thousand ...


In the coming days other updates are coming soon, hopefully before the new Esprit . In that regard, an image appeared on the web, but there are high chances that it is a fake, even if well done. Why not publish it and wait for an official statement (or almost).

UPDATE 11:15 am
E 'came the press release confirms that virtually everything written above. Lotus Forums ( Clicky ) has published together with the high-resolution photos.

Does Apex Fat Burn 1 Work

Addio 2ZZ-GE, benvenute Evora S e IPS


On 27 August 2010 is a significant date for Lotus Cars Ltd. today leave the factory the latest Elise / Exige with Toyota's 1.8 VVTL-i, otherwise known as 2ZZ-GE . At the presentation in Geneva in 2004, were not few people turn up their nose to the presence of a Toyota engine under the hood of the newly 111R, and some critics did not fail during the test drive because of its answer a bit 'bland below 6000 rpm. The 2ZZ from 192 hp and 180 Nm, designed in collaboration with Yamaha (motorcycle manufacturer's influence is evident both in how the power output and torque as well, from a certain point of view, the sounds of the same engine) was placed and still stands in sharp contrast to his predecessor 1.8 Rover K Series, considered by many purists still the real engine for the Elise though marred by the fragility of the head gasket, Lively and fragile the Rover, but less emotional Bulletproof Toyota. The turning point came in 2005 with the presentation of Exige 240R, a limited edition of 50 pieces: the 2ZZ, paired for the first time a lobe Eaton M62 supercharger and an intercooler, it reaches the threshold of 243 horsepower and 236 Nm of torque. But the biggest change you have in the delivery: power and torque are now distributed more evenly throughout the rev scale, with the peak reached above 8000 rpm. In 2006, the compressor sees the light for the first time in the new edition is not limited Exige S, which helps the 2ZZ to provide more than 220 horses. The Exige S is a success and soon eclipsed sales of the aspirated variant, which will be dropped in 2008, when it comes to the Elise SC . SC on the supercharged Toyota engine loses the intercooler because of space in the engine compartment of the Elise, but the values \u200b\u200bof performance remain the same. The highest point in the career of 1.8 is reached in the same year with the renewed Exige Cup 260-hp. In late 2009 the first rumors: The 2ZZ is a Euro 4 engine and from 2011 all cars must be approved in Europe 5 Euro. The home of Hethel has neither the budget nor (probably) the desire to modify the engine to make it conform to standards, Toyota bosses have no intention of making investments on an engine that has died for them in 2006 with the release of production of Celica (sigh!) and MR2. The end of the 2ZZ is announced. In February, presents the new Elise with 06.01 Euro 5 engine, which replaces the 1ZZ-FE, the younger brother of the 2ZZ mounted the entry level Elise S. A few days ago the news, farewell 2ZZ, which means immediate halt to the production of R Elise, Elise SC, Exige S, Exige Cup 260 and 2-Eleven. In other words are ordered only Elise S 1.6 and Evora. The future? In a little over a month at the Paris show will know everything. A Exige R with 280 hp V6 is rumored for years now ... it's the right time?


Meanwhile in Paris, today were presented with two versions of the Evora coaches: the S Evora and Evora IPS. The first (pictured above) is the most awaited version of spicy from standard 280 hp: a compressor brings the power of 350 hp and weight (alas) to 1430 Kg purists and critics turn up their nose in front of this fact: it is true, is not a car lighter, but is perfectly in line with the increased competition (see 911). Sure, some chiletto less would just like ...


IPS instead stands for Intelligent Precision Shift , in other words it is a version with 6-speed automatic transmission (in the photo above is a summary of paddles), especially appealing to customers overseas and in the Middle East. A new feature that was announced two years ago to the presentation of Evora. Now
looks forward to Paris and now some new Esprit ... hoping that the New Era much heralded by the Lotus does not prove a loud and embarrassing crap ...
