Lotus Elise shows at Geneva that there is facelift with no aesthetic merit, but aerodynamic and they announced a very temperate new engine.
In the spirit of the formation of a uniform brand, Lotus sacrifices the specific of Elise model passing it through a facelift to bring it to the Lotus Evora aesthetic common denominator. By renouncing to the spoiler and optical characteristic blocks by implanting some of the Evora, they managed to make a roadster that looked at the front it looks like a Chinese copy of the Ferrari California.
But, those from Lotus know better what they came up with this facelift, not just aesthetic considerations of uniformity being considered, but that the new front part is more aerodynamic by reducing the body's cx with 4%. So eventually we should admire they gor managing to squeeze a bit of sportsmanship even from the most trivial changes.
