Lotus Evora
Replacing the ordinary Evora, the 400 is lighter and more powerful by comparison. Its Toyota-made 3.5-litre V6 engine generates 400 horsepower (hence the name). In a car that weighs barely 1,400 kilos, that's a lot of power! It can be equipped with a manual or automatic transmission with 6 speeds in both cases. According to Lotus, it can go from 0-100 km/h in 4.2 seconds. Most Evora 400s are two-seaters, but there’s a 2+2 version as well.
