  • Lotus debuting 350 hp Exige GT3 Down Under

    Filed under: Motorsports , Coupes , Lotus , Australia Click above for a high-res gallery of the Lotus Exige GT3. Aussie racing fans are in for a treat during the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix this weekend, where the updated Lotus Exige GT3 will make its official debut. The revised racer is still packing the same supercharged 1.8-liter mill from the road-going Exige S, but it's been tweaked to created almost 350 hp and 224 lb.-ft. of torque (we're guessing through the use of a liquid-to-air intercooler and around 16 pounds of boost heaved into the built motor). Additionally, Lotus has revised the aero bits to increase downforce and reduce drag through the use of a lengthened nose (3 cm), a widened track (10 cm) and a rear section stretched by some 8 cm. Angelo Lazaris will be piloting the GT3 this weekend during the third round of the GT Championship. Lotus' full press release is posted after the jump and you can check out the gallery of the Lotus Exige GT3 concept below. Gallery...
