LOTUS 60

This new version of the Evora, called the GT430, is the most powerful car that Lotus has ever built.

It’s powered by a substantially tweaked version of the Toyota-sourced 3.5-litre turbo V6 which, as the name suggests, produces 430bhp. The 1,258kg sports car (heavy for a Lotus but still relatively light) does 0-60mph in 3.7sec and has a top speed of 190mph, at which it is producing 250kg of downforce.

Unfortunately the Evora GT430 is also one of the most expensive Lotuses ever made with an on-the-road price of £112,500. Only 60 cars will be built for the whole world.
