Lotus used the Geneva Motor Show to splash the Evora GTE’s body with carbon fiber, with the result being the Evora GTE F1 Limited Edition, a vehicle that was presented by Kimi Raikkonen.
The standard Evora GTE, if we can call it this way, already makes extensive use of the special material and now Lotus allows us to see this. The vehicle is basically dressed in Lotus’s traditional F1 livery. In addition to that, it also comes with a “10” logo, with this being the number used by Raikkonen’s Lotus F1 team mate, Romain Grosjean.

The use of the carbon fiber for the Evora GTE has brought the weight down by 200 lbs, which means that the vehicle’s dynamics have been improved in all areas. At the center of the car, we have a supercharged 3.5-liter V6 unit that produces 444 hp. Thus, we can imagine that the vehicle offers a stunning level of agility.
