Lotus has upgraded its Exige S yet again for 2008, introducing a range of new features including a new performance pack boosting peak power to 232hp (179kW) at 8,000rpm from last year’s 220hp (163kW) output. This is the same output as the limited edition Sport 240, brought about by a Magnuson/Eaton M62 supercharger, faster flowing injectors, plus a higher torque clutch system and an upsized roof scoop.
This hike in power, together with an increase in torque from the standard 215Nm to 230Nm at 5,500rpm, helps rocket the updated Exige S from 0-100km/h in 4.16 seconds, 0-160km/h in 9.9 seconds and a top speed of 245km/h – just 0.2 seconds and 4km/h off the track focused 2-Eleven. Fuel consumption remains at 9.1L per 100km.
