A proper British Sports car has no roof. So now that Lotus has launched the production version of the Evora at the Geneva Motor show and has even announced European pricing, it’s time to do some model variations.
We’ve been hearing rumors of an Evora convertible for a while now, and it still seems to be on track for 2011. The open top version will likely employ a similar fabric roof to the Elise, which would make for more of a targa roof than a full convertible.
Although the chassis was designed to function without a roof, its going to take a few years to introduce the fabric-top model because Lotus first has to roll out the hard top for the world’s markets. European deliveries will begin in May, and the U.S. will have to wait until 2010.
Once that’s complete, Lotus will likely add an Evora SC model to the lineup. This will take the toyota-sourced 3.5-liter V6 from 276 hp to a supercharged 400 hp.
