Does look very nice, be interesting to see first hand, I've always loved Lotus cars, but when I discovered how hard it was to get in/out the Elise, I never considered one.
This does look like it could be a big step up from the Elise though with regards to be able to use it as a daily rather than a only weekend toy. The pricing is a bit vague at the moment, they're saying from under £60k, so seems a bit of a bargain, but I wonder how much the V6 will be, as it get's less tempting if it's V8 F-Type sort of money or more.

Looks immense and based on the outgoing Evora and I loved mine. The interior was the biggest issue and if they have addressed that then superb. It certainly looks like a nice cabin. 400hp is disappointing and I bet the car with the v6 which will likely be the more powerful car will be closer to 80k when optioned up. There is definitely scope to improve the power. Also, the gearbox was a bit of a pig as well so I hope they improved that.
Yes saw it in the news yesterday, would have certainly considered it if it was a few months earlier.

It’s very “ super car esk “ , however I feel the rear haunches, sloping roof line and gloss black side sills
are a direct copy from the F type coupe. The proportions are not as nice as well, with a rather hooked nosed short bonnet.
The engines are not new, the 2ltr is out of the merc’s hot hatch , and the V6 is a Toyota, mind you it’s a looker and nice car starting at approx 60k, but the V6
With toys is bound to be up nearer the 80K price range, thus entering the P450 V8 price. I know which one I’d have that higher end price

Looks are 'ok'. Am trying not to be told that what to think by the reviewers. Sides look a bit busy and overall not massively new or different. But yep, ok. Perhaps a grey/metallic one would be even more ok.
As for perfromance wouold need to drive it.
As somebody said, the £60k min price might turn out to not exist when you count options and whatever turns out to be the best engine.

manual v6 would be the way to go to my mind, not a farty AMG turbo. To that end would be an interesting drive, a few people from the XKR forum (US based) had the Evora and spoke highly of them
