A History Of Lotus Eile Cars And Model Guide Part 2
In accord with founder Colin Chapman's saying "Simplify, then add lightness," Lotus cars are built lightweight to achieve great performance. In its production form, the 1996 Lotus Elise weighed 725 kg (1,600 lb).
The Series 1 Elise was able to accelerate 0-60 mph (97 km/h) in 5.8 seconds despite its relatively low power output of 118 bhp (88 kW; 120 PS). Braking, cornering, and fuel consumption are also improved by the car's reduced weight.
Series 1 was designed by Julian Thomson, then head of design at Lotus, and Richard Rackham, Lotus's chief engineer.
