According to preliminary data, the device will not become a separate model, but it will be crossover in "Evora" modeling. The car will get increased ground clearance and the protective lining on the body. Design is done in the style of the entire updated collection of Evora. The upgraded sports car Lotus Evora, in addition to improvements in design, will have more powerful engines with supercharging, and will also be faster and easier in drive.
