The Lotus is not interested to invest in advertising, rather prefer to focus on motor racing and so, in addition to F1 and sports car races for the covered wheels, is also to debut in the world of rallies with a special version of the Exige. The car will be visible during the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show, Lotus, and will as usual, rear-wheel drive.
Still do not know where the championship race, but it is clear that its membership class will be dedicated to the GT. To approve the car, it will produce 300 copies before the launch expected within the month of January 2012, but there are already rumors that announce and suggest a more extensive production.
On the other hand, the world of rally is not a secret for Claudio Berro, who is now head of sports projects Lotus, who ran as a navigator and was Italian champion in 1981 and 1982 Group 2. But the commitments of the Lotus could extend to the endurance races, which could debut in 2013 with a prototype LMP2 class equipped with a 4.8-liter V8 that is also placed in the next road sports.
