The Lotus Exige S 240 and 260 perhaps best represent the company’s dedication to extreme performance through light weight.

Relatively speaking, the Lotus Exige engine size to overall weight ratio makes the sports car one of the most powerful production cars in the world. This muscular build provides the Exige models the lively nature Lotus sports cars are known for.

And though the animalistic power well caters to track enthusiasts, the Exige’s cat-like agility translates just as well to backroads and motorways. Whether you pick the Exige S 240 or the 260, you’re ensured a unique and titillating driving experience.

The Lotus Exige S 240 can rocket you from zero to 60mph in a scant 4.1 seconds, topping out at 150mph, all while still delivering a relatively fuel-sipping 26 miles per gallon on the highway.

The Exige S 260 adds a bit of horsepower while also strategically lightening the already low curb weight further, delivering a zero to 60 time of 4 seconds while topping out at 150mph.

Both Exige models provide owners unparalleled Lotus handling, allowing an advantage on the track and excitement when simply driving from Point A to Point B.
