Lotus Exige Cup 380: Supercars Killer Gets Angrier
Only 60 of them will be produced and you’d better hurry up, because an Exige like this has never been seen. Starting from its further refined aerodynamic allowing you to make the most of a power/weight ratio worthy of a supercar, thanks to a rear spoiler capable of generating up to 200kg of downforce, through the extensive use of carbon fiber, weaving a few grams away from the already anorexic weight that stops the needle at 1,057kg. The Cup 380 is then able to take from 0 to 100 per hour in just 3.6 seconds and reach about 282 kph of top speed, without taking into account that thanks to more rigid suspension and wider rear tires, when you’ll deal with corners, you can go flat out as if you never thought it was possible with a road legal car. Pushing it the well-known 3.5 supercharged V6, that here can deliver 375hp at 6.700rpm and 410Nm of torque at 5.000 revs.
Among the details that make it special we find a carbon panel that covers the engine bay, a single piece that saves about 6 kilos and a half, while in the cabin we have the classic spartan cockpit so dear to each Hethel car but thanks to alcantara and painted details, everything acquires a more exclusive flavor. You need about € 106,000 to take home one of the only 60 pieces that will be produced as coupe only and then the hunt for supercars will become your favorite hobby.
