Lotus to come out with new supercar in Paris Auto Show.

Lotus has officially confirmed that it will show a concept for an upmarket supercar at the Paris motor show in September.



Lotus has been working for at least three years on various iterations of an Esprit replacement.

Lotus spokesmen are hazy about future product, but agree that the new concept is an accurate guide to their future intentions for production models.


In the latest company statements, its new show car will be �perhaps even more� than a replacement for the mid-engined Esprit supercar � which it pointedly reminds us was first unveiled as a Giugiaro-designed concept at the Paris show exactly 35 years ago.
