Typically, niche vehicles are either sports cars or have a sports-oriented character. It is a sector where visual impact, strong performance and driver enjoyment combine to create a product with enormous appeal.
And when it comes to creating niche sports cars, Lotus is in an enviable position - the platforms of our own products can
quickly and cost-effectively become the underpinnings for our clients' vehicles.
The Elise platform has proven its flexibility as the basis for a wide range of sports cars, all of which are superb to drive and are recognised leaders in their sector.
The product advantages of vehicles based on such a successful platform are numerous: it allows class-leading driving dynamics, the integration of conventional or alternative powertrains and it provides strong proportions for visually captivating exterior design.
The most crucial benefits of the Elise platform are that its technology, quality and commercial viability are all proven and its engineering design and manufacturing investment are already in place. Only modest further expenditure is required to create new, exciting and clearly positioned products manufactured to the highest quality standards.
The added advantage here is the speed with which a client can get high-quality, extremely desirable, brand-enhancing products into the showroom.
The next generation platforms that are the basis for future Lotus products are currently under development. Again, industry-leading driving dynamics and a low-investment philosophy are at the heart of their design. They will provide the perfect foundation for clients to design and manufacture their own breathtaking sports cars.
