Need to Know: Lotus Elise

Consumer | about 1 year ago

The Lotus Elise has been offering lightweight fun for fourteen years, with very little modifications. Now though, Lotus have changed the car’s engine from a 1.8 to a smaller 1.6, making it the most economical Elise ever at a staggering 46mpg. Vicki finds out if the new, eco-friendly Elise has lost any of the car’s sparkle on the road by conducting some high speed testing.

Need to Know: Lotus Elise is tagged with Lotus, elise and blowtorch. Select a tag (Lotus, for example) to find everything on FiveFWD about the subject.
