  • The New Lotus Europa S - ‘Business Class by Lotus’
    E S Lotus Cars 06 December 2005 NEWS RELEASE Page 1 of 2 A The New Lotus Europa S - ‘Business Class by Lotus’ The new Lotus Europa S, a Grand Tourer (GT) inspired two-seater will provide Lotus customers E with a spectacular sportscar with significantly enhanced levels of touring and cruising capability. It will provide drivers with higher levels of practicality and refinement to complement the simplicity of the Lotus Elise and Exige models. L The Lotus Europa S follows the core Lotus philosophy of performance through light weight enabling this refined and very high performing GT car to weigh just 995 kg. This low weight has been obtained through the clever use of advanced and high tech materials including an extruded E and bonded aluminium chassis, composite body panels and a very advanced composite energy absorbing front crash structure. When compared to the award winning Lotus Elise, the Europa S has a larger boot / luggage R compartment and easier cabin access, resulting from lower chassis sides and a higher roof line. Coupled with luxuries such as full leather interior, driver and passenger airbags and carpets all as standard, Lotus has created a “Business Class” driving experience. However, the Europa S is not a derivative of the Elise or the Exige and has been allocated a S separate Lotus type number of Type 121 - the Elise and Exige are both Type 111. The new mid-engined coupe will deliver high levels of performance from a high torque (263 Nm or 194 lbft at 4200 rpm) 2.0-litre turbo engine producing 149 kW (200 hp or 203 PS) at 5400rpm.

Jackie readily agreed and suggested we use the ‘elite’ British Racing Drivers Club clubhouse at Silverstone. We sold out immediately..110 Lotus enthusiast guests at £25 each to include food and a very modest £500 (normally £2000) clubhouse hire. This covered costs and I reasoned this would allow more money to be spent on raffle tickets and our auction! We then settled in to a 90 minute interview with slideshow (thanks Lawrence!) detailing Jackie’s amazingly varied career in motorsport…….. his fractious relationship with Colin Chapman when he was parachuted into Team Lotus in 1968 after the untimely death of Jim Clark…. spells with McLaren F1 and the seemingly unreliable BRM F1 team…..
