Lotus Exige Overview

The Exige's incredible handling is made possible by a bonded extruded aluminum chassis, four-wheel-independent suspension, Eibach coil springs, Bilstein gas shock absorbers, AP Racing/Brembo brakes, multi-spoke alloy wheels, and Yokohama performance tires. The Exige S and Club Racer are powered by a supercharged 220 hp 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine with a six-speed manual transmission. The S 240 uses the same supercharged 1.8-liter four-cylinder, but power is bumped up to 240 horsepower. The available Touring Pack includes full leather seats, upgraded stereo system with iPod? connector, stowage net, additional sound insulation and full carpet set. The optional Track Pack provides adjustable Bilstein shocks with remote front reservoirs. A limited-slip differential is also available. The limited-edition Club Racer is featured in blue exterior with contrasting black center tri-stripes, Microfibre seats and door panels, uprated 4-piston AP front calipers and pads, an Alpine sound system, and fog lamps.

For 2008, upgrades to the Lotus Exige include a new instrument display with a high-definition LCD message panel and a new integrated ignition key design. The S 240 and the S Club Racer are new for 2008.
