Lotus Evora Carbon Concept makes motor show debut


Evora Carbon Concept

The 80th Geneva Motor Show is now open to the press and sitting smack dab in the middle of the Lotus booth is one extra special Evora. The company, known for their mantra of “adding lightness,” have added a healthy dose of carbon fiber to create this Evora Carbon Concept.

Lotus’ motorsport pedigree is said to be the inspiration for this particular special, with its exposed carbon fiber accented roof, nose, tail and sills, and a more aggressive carbon diffuser. The striking white concept car is finished in “an advanced water based pearlesent paint” that combine nicely to create that great Stormtrooper look.

The interior of the Evora Carbon Concept gets some carbon fiber of its own, along with perforated black leather and generous swathes of gray alcantara covering the footwell, dashboard and roof.

Other changes from the standard Evora include diamond cut forged 19” alloy wheels front and rear, shod with Pirelli P-Zero Corsa tyres (235/35 wide front and 285/30 wide rear).

No word on whether or not the Evora Carbon Concept will see production, but we’re going to go ahead and say it probably will, or at least parts of it will.
