Prices for Lotus cars in Australia are being slashed off in a staggering price cut that should make it attractive to Australian customers in the country. As a result of the Aussie governments, decision to reduce import duties, Lotus Cars of Australia announced price reductions across the board where customers can save up to AU$18,500. The price cuts involve a number of current Lotus models including the 2011 Elise, including the Elise R, Elise SC, Exige S, and Cup 260, will be given a price cut of AU$10,000 for all base units. Likewise, the price tag for the Lotus Evora will also be cut by the same amount. A bigger price cut will also be given to the Lotus 2-Eleven, whose prices will be slashed by over AU$18,500. Lotus Cars Australia Managing Director John Startari attributes the price reduction to the Australian government’s decision to reduce the country’s import duties. "The government’s import duty reduction at the start of 2010 has offered some assistance, whilst favorable foreign exchange rates have been a further catalyst to these announced price changes," he explains. .
15 comments: Lotus Australia to cut car prices by over AU$18,500 Honestly, I really don’t like the interior of the Lotus..I can’t see any elegance in there. It is somewhat similar with Honda Civic. However, talking about the performance of their car,
I would say that its a bog winner especially the Evora!
 The car itself is primitive and one of the closest production car apart from any car.
As a racecar it was legalized. I bet you can get a lot of “terms” in this luxurious car.
And because of that I love this car!
 I currently drive a hard-top convertible and can say the difference between this and a coupe is 30 years. That is to say, the htc handles like my 30 year old coupe. When the top is up, there is more body roll and the suspension can feel a little more springy than need be.
 I think this car looks a lot better than the Ferrari California, which seems like its closest competitor. It weighs less compared to 3825 lbs the Ferrari, costs less, and makes 611 horsepower compared to 460 hp in the Ferrari.
 They mention a hard-top version. I agree, given the performance nature of the car, I would also prefer a coupe. Not only because it is less weighty, but more stable and more well-nature.
 But then again, this is just a concept so it’s not set in stone yet. Changes could still be made, or even another vehicle released simultaneously that stays true to the idea of simple and light.
 That is a 3D render of a concept, not the production model. Look at that rear glass. Unless Lotus has a Tardis in the trunk it ain’t gonna fit. Ferrari couldn’t do it with the California.
 Nice compilation of videos. I like the car shots that are taken at night time, they are pretty cool. Well, even though they weren’t on their best, or they weren’t going fast, seeing them on the streets is still a great feed.
 That’s great! Because everyone can save money. Aside from this, Lotus cars are well known in the country of australia and I think many people living in australia will be surprised.
