This is 2013 Lotus Elan, slated for a summer 2013 debut, is a closed car powered by a pressure-charged 450-horsepower 4.0-liter V6. This is the third-generation car to use the Elan name. Like the Esprit, it's optionally available as a hybrid.
This third Elan, slated for a summer 2013 debut, is a closed car powered by a pressure-charged 450-horsepower 4.0-liter V6 with a seven-speed transmission, making it a very different animal from its predecessors, a fact that keen Lotus fans — and there are many — may struggle with. They may also regret its near-cookie-cutter resemblance to the new Lotus Esprit and the smaller Elise.
