Very Angry Elise
Some recipes do not need to be changed, and Lotus has no intention of betraying its own trademark, that mantra that has made it famous and beloved in the world, and so respected by driving purists. The Elise Cup 250 just unveiled is the most powerful Elise ever produced, but do not even think for a second that has put on some weight, since the addition of 26 horses to the powerful 4-cylinder supercharged engine has been achieved without moving the needle scales the wrong way. Quite the contrary, in fact it also weighs less, thanks to a careful lightening work for some mechanical parts. Here is how the Cup 250 will then be able to take from 0 to 100 in just 3.9 seconds and to offer even more extreme performance than the already excellent Cup 220, with which it shares chassis and supension. Then you have more powerful brakes, new ultralight rims, a manual 6-speed gearbox and a bit of ABS (racing type): a package that will make it a real lethal weapon for any supercar.
