Lotus, Renault and Virgin F1 teams change names for 2012

The battle, as you may recall, involves two outfits - neither of them directly owned by Lotus. One is based in Malaysia and licensed the name from Lotus' parent company, Proton, before subsequently "acquiring" the name from a third party that laid claim to it. The issue was further complicated when Lotus itself teamed with the Renault F1 team, resulting in two squads called Lotus-Renault.

The two operations have now reached a compromise. The green-and-yellow Malaysian outfit known until now as Team Lotus be named Caterham in 2012, while the Renault team will be cleared to use the Lotus name.

The Evolving Evora
The Lotus Evora get the umpteenth twist in the form of a new show car, which can be seen these days at the Geneva Motor Show. It is the only model, as the Lotus Evora Hybrid Concept 414E is also presented these days, but unlike the latter, which emphasizes the technological aspect, the Lotus Evora Carbon Concept in question this time is more focused on aesthetic aspects.
Its main innovations are a composite body in white pearl effect which contrasts with the various elements of carbon fiber as the roof or the rear diffuser, details not only serve to embellish your design, but also lowers weight. The interior also gets a carbon fiber treatment, with many facts and details in this material and upholstered in leather and Alcantara, seeking to emphasize the luxury and sportiness of the British model.

Enduro Evora – GT Concept Car is the evolved version of GT4 endurance podium Evora. This Enduro has been designed by Lotus Motorsport under the expert eyes of leading designer Nicola Scimeca.

Lotus to come out with new supercar in Paris Auto Show.

Lotus has officially confirmed that it will show a concept for an upmarket supercar at the Paris motor show in September.



Lotus has been working for at least three years on various iterations of an Esprit replacement.

Lotus spokesmen are hazy about future product, but agree that the new concept is an accurate guide to their future intentions for production models.


In the latest company statements, its new show car will be “perhaps even more” than a replacement for the mid-engined Esprit supercar — which it pointedly reminds us was first unveiled as a Giugiaro-designed concept at the Paris show exactly 35 years ago.
