The Lotus Emira has the looks, but does an ageing powertrain and 1486kg kerb weight hamper thrills?
. In profile it’s low, lithe and hunkered down in the right places, and from the rear there’s a three-quarter supercar vibe going on in how the curves flow over the rear haunches and wrap around the rear of the car. Only the comparatively plain looking front hints at a car punching above its price point.It’s no less impressive inside, either, and not only because changes to the extruded aluminium chassis have improved ingress and egress – that’s no longer a topic of conversation.
Three chassis options are available for the Emira, with the Dynamic Pack offering Tour or Sport settings, the latter featuring stiffer spring and damper rates and also available with a limited-slip differential. Both feature fixed rates for springs and dampers, with the switch in driver modes adjusting throttle and steering response only, the latter hydraulic but now power assisted.
