Offering 217 hp and 250 Nm of torque, the 1.8-litre supercharged, chargecooled four-cylinder has been tuned to deliver stunning real-world performance and class-leading efficiency. 0-60 mph is now despatched in 4.2 seconds, thanks to a power-to-weight ratio of up to 257 hp per ton. CO2 emissions are extremely low for the performance on offer at just 173 g/km. Stopping power is provided by AP Racing twin-piston calipers up front and Brembo single-piston calipers at the rear. Every Elise benefits from double wishbone suspension at all four corners and a sophisticated Lotus Dynamic Performance Management (Lotus DPM) system with user selectable driving modes (Drive, Sport and Off). Hethel’s acoustic engineers have transformed the aural appeal of the Elise too with a new exhaust system fitted as standard. Delivering an exciting soundtrack at all speeds, it makes the Elise Sport 220 the best-sounding Elise yet.
