Notes
The Lotus Exige V6 Cup is a track-focused variant of the Exige series, powered by a supercharged 3.5-liter Toyota 2GR-FE V6 engine producing 345 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. The lightweight aluminum chassis and composite body panels keep dry weight around 1,080 kg, delivering exceptional power-to-weight ratio. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a close-ratio six-speed manual gearbox.
Track-specific features include adjustable Öhlins TTX dampers, aggressive aerodynamic package with front splitter, rear diffuser, and adjustable rear wing generating significant downforce. The Cup variant includes lightweight forged wheels, AP Racing brakes with four-piston calipers, and competition-oriented interior with stripped amenities. The mid-engine layout and double wishbone suspension front and rear provide precise handling characteristics favored by track day enthusiasts and club racers.
