Powered by a 2.2 litre turbocharged inline-four engine, it produced around 215 horsepower, delivering a 0-60mph time of approximately 5.4 seconds.

The wedge-shaped design, penned by Giorgetto Giugiaro and later refined by Peter Stevens, gave it a timeless appeal. A pop culture icon, it was famously featured in James Bond films. The 1988 model marked the evolution of Lotus' philosophy—performance through lightness and precision.Launched in 1975 this iconic sportscar is celebrating its 50th anniversary.
