211-2012 Lotus Exige Sporty Stylish Concept

The original Lotus Exige (NA or naturally aspirated Exige) was launched in 2000 and had a 1.8 L Rover K Series engine in VHPD (Very High Performance Derivative) tune. It produced 177 bhp (132 kW; 179 PS) in standard form and 192 bhp (143 kW; 195 PS) in the "track spec" version. The Lotus Exige is a two-door, two-seat sports car made by Lotus Cars. It is essentially a coupé version of the Lotus Elise, a mid-engined roadster in production since 1996.

The Series 2 Lotus Exige was introduced. It features a 1.8 L 16-valve DOHC Toyota/Yamaha engine that produces 190 bhp (142 kW; 193 PS) with the Toyota engine designation of 2ZZ-GE. Compared to the Series 2 Elise, it has a front splitter, fibreglass hardtop roof with roof scoop, rear engine cover, and rear spoiler. The sole purpose of these aerodynamic additions to the base Elise is to create more downforce (almost 100 lb (45 kg) of downforce at 100 mph (160 km/h) in the Exige versus 13 lb (5.9 kg) at 100 mph (160 km/h) in the Elise).

At the exterior, the Lotus Exige S type 72 features black and gold Lotus Type 72 color scheme, unique black and gold light weight wheels and is finished with hand-painted gold Type 72 and Exige S logos.

The new 2011 Lotus Exige gains a composite rear wing, first seen on the Exige GT3 road car concept. This new wing is 7.1 inches wider, is mounted 1.8 inches higher and 2.4 inches further back compared to the previous model year.Not only is the wing's size and location different, but it is also mounted to the body via end plates which increases stiffness and increases airflow over the wing - all told, it maintains an impressive 93 pounds of downforce at 100 mph.

Powering the 2011 Lotus Exige S is a supercharged and air-to-air intercooled version of the same Toyota-sourced 1.8 liter inline-four used in the Elise. As the name suggests, the Exige S240 version produces 240 horsepower at 8,000 rpm along with 170 lb-ft at 5,500 rpm. It features Toyota's variable valve timing and lift system. The only transmission is a six-speed close-ratio manual, sending power to the nearby rear wheels. The Exige S240 weighs in at just under 2,100 lbs, and returns 20 mpg in the EPA's city cycle and 26 mpg on the highway. The Exige S240 sprints from zero-to-60 in just 4.1 seconds, and finishes the race to 100 in just ten seconds.
