The British automaker Lotus is well known by the sports cars it produces. Usually very light on weight and with fine handling characteristics, these cars are especially good for track days and motorsports. And now, all Need For Speed: World players can enjoy a new feather weight in the game. After the Elise, the Exige Cup 260 and the Evora, it is now time for the [b]Lotus Europa S[/b] to join the car list.



Powered by 2.0-liter turbocharged GM Ecotec engine capable of developing 200 hp @5400 rpm, the Europa S can reach a top speed of 230 km/h, and it goes from zero to 100 km/h in 5.5 seconds, mainly due to its low weight: just 995 kilograms. The aluminium chassis with composite body panels sure helped to reduce the weight. Still, this two-seat rear engined sports car was not stripped of things such as air conditioning, sound system or leather interior.
