Lotus Evora Sport 410 Arrives in the US Next Summer, Will Pack High Performance

View

The British based manufacturer Lotus has recently announced the arrival of the all-new Evora Sport 410 in the United States, starting next summer, with just a bunch of 150 vehicles available, with prices to be revealed somewhere next year.

The Lotus Evora Sport 410 was first previewed at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show, last March, with the carmaker announcing its arrival in the US with a lot of exquisite features and lightweight styling bits, which will make it extremely high-performance.

Lotus is well-known for building extremely lightweight sports cars, and the Sport 410 is no exception. The car`s components are built from lightweight components like carbon fiber composites. Thanks to that, the sports car will be around 70 kg lighter, reaching an overall 1,270 kg. The model can be also equipped with an optional titanium exhaust system which also sheds off around 10 kg.

As for the car`s performance, the carmaker has fitted a 3.5-liter supercharged V6 engine, which develops 10 horsepower more than the Evora 400. We are looking here at an overall of 410 horsepower, available at 7,000 rpm, and 410 Nm of torque, available at just 3,500 rpm.

This makes the Lotus Evora Sport 410 extremely fast when sprinting from 0 to 100 km/h, the sports car taking just 3.9 seconds, a mind-blowing figure achieved with a six-speed automatic transmission. Equipped with the six-speed manual, the model is 0.1 slower. Even so, it is around 0.2 seconds faster than the Evora 400.

Also very impressive, the Sport 410 comes with a top speed of 305 km/h in the manual and 285 km/h in the automatic transmission.
