2012 Lotus Evora Coupe

Summary

Provided by NADAguides.com

A rear engine sports car, the Lotus Evora is a lightweight coupe with 2+2 seating. The standard Evora is powered by a 3.5-liter V6 engine that produces 276 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque while the S trim level adds a supercharger, boosting power up to 345 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque. RWD is paired to a 6-speed manual or optional 6-speed automatic transmission, enabling an EPA estimated 18 mpg city and 26 mpg highway. Features include bi-xenon headlamps, rear spoiler, free flowing exhaust, 20-inch wheels, steering wheel mounted controls, leather paneling/trim, heated seats, reversing camera, hands-free phone capabilities, and Suedetex seats. Safety is comprised of anti-lock braking (ABS), stability control, advanced airbags, and tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). The Evora is backed by a 3-year/36,000-mile warranty.

Benefits of Driving a 2012 Lotus Evora Coupe

Lotus has long made powerful, lightweight sports cars that are as fun to drive as they are affordable. With a price tag around $75,000, the Evora could be a zippy little daily driver, with the capability to hold its own on the occasional track day. The EPA rates the Evora at 17 mpg city and 27 mpg highway. The Evora has been more rigorously tested than any other Lotus before it and comes with a 3-year/60,000-mile warranty.

What's new for 2012?

The Lotus Evora is mostly unchanged for 2012. The biggest news is the availability of Lotus's Intelligent Precision Shift automatic on the more powerful S models towards the end of the year. Featuring six forward gears, the IPS automatic was previously only available on the base Evora.

Model Strengths

  • Excellent handling and performance
  • sports car with 2+2 seating
  • distinctive styling and exclusivity

Model Review

The rear-wheel drive Lotus Evora has a mid-mounted aluminum 3.5L V6 engine with dual overhead cams that churns out 276 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque. The Toyota-sourced engine is mated to a 6-speed manual transmission, with an optional close-ratio gearbox also available. Published numbers for the Evora give it a top speed of 162 mph, a 0-60 mph time of 4.9 seconds and a quarter-mile time of 12.5 seconds. An even higher performance S version is available, which bumps horsepower to 345 and torque to 295 lb-ft via a supercharger and active exhaust. The optional IPS transmission features a 6-speed automatic with paddle shifters, allowing the driver to switch between three modes: manual paddle shift, sport paddle shift and fully automatic.

Original Warranty  help
Original Warranty
An original warranty is the warranty associated with a vehicle when it is brand new. In addition to the original warranty, select items, like tires, are typically covered by respective manufacturers. Also, an act of Federal law sometimes provides protection for certain components, like emissions equipment.
The original warranty is often broken down into multiple sections, including:
Basic Warranty:
Typically covers everything except for parts that wear out through normal use of the vehicle. Examples of non-covered items are brake pads, wiper blades and filters.
Drivetrain Warranty:
This warranty covers items the basic warranty does not protect. Wear and tear items such as hoses will not be covered, but key items like the engine, transmission, drive axles and driveshaft often will be.
Roadside Assistance:
The level of service differs greatly with this warranty, but many manufacturers offer a toll-free number that helps provide assistance in case you run out of gas, get a flat tire or lock your keys in the car.
Corrosion Warranty:
This warranty focuses on protecting you from holes caused by rust or corrosion in your vehicle's sheet metal.
Please check the owner's manual, visit a local dealership or look at the manufacturer's website to learn more about the specifics of the warranties that apply to a vehicle.
