Lotus Evora GT410 Sport hits 60 mph in 3.9-seconds

Lotus has unveiled a new car that will be making its way to the US. The car is called the Lotus Evora GT410 Sport. The car is offered in a two-seater configuration or a 2+2 and can be had with an automatic or manual transmission. The car draws from the Evora GT430 with advanced aero.

The GT410 has composite front and rear body panels but sheds some of the high downforce elements that the GT430 offers or a sleeker and subtler style. The GT410 Sport has 50% more downforce than the Evora Sport 410.

The car is light, which is expected from Lotus, with a dry weight of 1,256kg when fitted with the optional titanium exhaust and Lotus-tuned Ohlins TTX aluminum 2-way adjustable dampers. The engine is a supercharged 3.5L 6-cylinder unit with integrated water-to-air charge cooler. It makes 410hp and 420 Nm of torque.

That much power can push the car to 60mph in 3.9 seconds in the automatic and 4.0 seconds for the manual. The car is fitted with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires in 235/35 R19 front and 285/30 R20 rear.

The standard sports suspension is Eibach ultra-light, low-sideload springs, and Bilstein sport dampers. A no-cost option will add a touring suspension with non-adjustable dampers and Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires. The Evora GT410 Sport can be ordered now in Europe and Asian markets and will land this summer in the US and China.
