The Lotus Evora is a sports car produced by the British company Lotus.[1] The car, which was developed under the project name Project Eagle, was launched on 22 July 2008 at the British International Motor Show.[4] The Evora S was launched in 2010 with a supercharged 3.5-litre V6. A facelifted and more powerful Evora 400 model was unveiled at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show,[5] followed by another more powerful variant, the Evora GT430, which was unveiled in 2017.[6]

The Lotus Evora is based on the first all-new vehicle platform from Lotus Cars since the introduction of the Lotus Elise in 1995 (the Exige and the 2006 Europa S are both derivatives of the Elise).[7][8] The Evora was planned to be the first of three vehicles to be built on the same platform.[9] The sales target was 2,000 cars per year, with prices between £45,000 and just over £50,000,[1] and sales in America scheduled from the beginning of 2010.
