The Elise - passionately different - unmistakably Lotus. Lotus's mission was to deliver a new breed. Lighter, quicker, sleeker. To bring a new era of exhilaration, energy and expression. Along with a complete range of options, to give the true individual the ultimate in style and choice. Naturally, Elise features the latest thinking in styling, aerodynamics and ride, yet it is a true Lotus. Its ultra-light design is intended to meet all world-wide requirements for safety, comfort and emission and noise control.
