Lotus Emira: the Sub-$100k Sports Car We've Been Waiting For? - TheSmokingTire

Like those AMAZING shots? We got them with the Insta360 X3! https://store.insta360.com/product/x3...

The new Lotus Emira is a beautifully restyled, analog driving machine that takes the best of what we liked from the last-generation Evora and improves on it, with new body work, a new, polished interior, and increased comfort and usability. The powertrain, however, mostly carries over from the previous eleven years of Evora. Does the new car really feel "new?" is it enough of an update to pull customers away from Caymans and Corvettes? Is it the best drivers car you can get for under $100k? These questions and more answered in today's video!

Lotus Cars, NA provided the vehicle, insurance, and a tank of fuel for this review.

Suspension update: Before we filmed this we asked if there was a difference in hardware between the Sport and Touring trims. We were m told there was not; it was just alignment and tires, which is why we said as such.

We have found out that information was incorrect. The springs on sport are stiffer (than Touring) and the shocks have more compression, along with the alignment and tire choice.
