Hand-crafted in small numbers at the Lotus factory in Hethel, England, the 2007 Elise makes excellent use of its award-winning epoxy-bonded aluminum chassis and finely-tuned independent suspension. This offers the driver outstanding road feel, accuracy of steering and delivers performance numbers found in cars costing several times as much.
The 190 horsepower engine has received a new engine management system that improves response through an electronic throttle. The new system has also reduced fuel consumption and emissions while maintaining the high specific output needed to propel the Elise to 60 mph in under 5 seconds. The pedal assembly has also been tuned for improved pedal feel.
