An Overview of the Supercharged Lotus Evora GT
The Lotus Evora GT is a supercharged vehicle with a premium price tag that is every car enthusiast’s dream. The vehicle is exhilarating to drive on a racetrack and just as fun when winding city roads. Production of the Evora GT was discontinued in 2021. However, during its reign, the luxury sport checked all the right boxes where performance, connectivity, interiors, and safety were concerned. If you’re looking to buy one, here are the details.
Engine, performance, and transmission
The Evora GT is equipped with a supercharged 3.5-liter V6 engine. The car also features a 6-speed transmission and a rear-wheel drive setup.
Interior technology
For the time the vehicle was in production, we can safely say that the Lotus Evora GT came with exceptional technological features. The front featured a 7-inch touchscreen compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Drivers could also travel roads with confidence with the built-in navigation system. You can connect your smartphone to a USB to play your favorite music, listen to the radio, podcasts, and more. You can also connect your device wirelessly to its Bluetooth system. While the speaker setup inside the car is good enough, you can opt for an amplifier and a subwoofer for a more premium audio experience.
Interiors and cargo space
The Lotus Evora GT’s compact design can hold only two or four occupants based on the seating setup you pick. But let’s not forget the vehicle is a coupe, so being able to fit four passengers is pretty impressive. The dashboard combines physical switchgear with a modern-looking instrument cluster that amps up the overall look of the vehicle. As for the rest of the interiors, the cabin is made with faux suede materials with aggressive styled Sparco carbon-fiber seats as standard. You can also customize the other interior of the automobile with Lotus’s Exclusive program. The program allows you to pick exclusive paint schemes and premium leather upholstery to enhance interiors. For a compact vehicle, you get ample storage under the rear hatch and interior storage that is strategically placed. All in all, the interior of the Lotus Evora GT does pretty well when compared to other competitors in its segment.
Safety features
The Lotus Evora GT comes with a standard set of safety features, which can give driver’s the desired peace of mind. The car comes with front and side-impact airbags as standard. There’s also a camera for reversing that turns on automatically when you shift the car into reverse gear. The car also features rear parking sensors so that you are aware of any hidden obstacles when reversing. An Electronic Stability Program is also equipped in the Evora GT. This system can stabilize the car automatically by adjusting the power output to the rear wheels. It can also manage traction, which can lower the odds of losing vehicle control.
Price
If you’re looking for a Lotus Evora GT, the good news is you might be able to pick it up from a third-party seller. The base price of the vehicle is about $99,000, which comes with all the standard features. Alternatively, if you’re willing to shell out more for the other available accessories and features, the Evora’s price can rise to more than $130,000.
