British sports and racing car manufacturer, Lotus has released the new Evora GT410 Sport ahead of its 70th anniversary celebration, and the sports car is available as a two seater or 2+2 configurations, with manual or automatic transmissions option. This new GT-class coupe draws its inspiration from Evora GT430 and refines it further to deliver an even more desirable car by adding greater advanced aerodynamics and redesigning the car with new composite front and rear body panels.

The new Evora GT410 Sport features yellow brake calipers and steering wheel, dashboard, door panels, transmission tunnel, centre console and instrument binnacle are all trimmed in black AlcantaraĀ®, complemented by contrast twin colour stitching in its interior.

The new Evora GT410 Sport takes the lessons learnt from the development of the GT430 to deliver something outstanding and highly capable,” said Group Lotus plc’s CEO, Jean-Marc Gales said during the recent launch event for the new Evora GT410 Sport.

The body style is designed to be sporty and sleek as well as lightweight about 1,297 kg. Powering the heart of the engine is a 3.5-liter supercharged Toyota-derived V6, producing 410 horsepower and 420 Nm of torque, and generating up to 96kg of downforce, which is 50 percent more than the Evora Sport 410. In addition, 0-60 mph takes just 3.9 seconds with the semi-auto or four seconds with the manual gearbox, however top speed with the automaticĀ ‘box is 171mph, which is 19mph slower than the manual’s 190mph top speed.
