The Lotus Evora Rolls Into Canada

The latest edition to the English carmaker’s family will be sold in Canada, beginning in the first quarter of 2010.

More civilized than the little Elise, the Lotus Evora will also be more luxurious and spacious, with 2 extra seats in the back.  The car’s power will come from a 3.5-litre Toyota V6 engine (as in the Camry) that puts out 276 horsepower.  The Evora moves from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.1, and boasts a top speed of 261 km/h.

Roughly 150 of the Evoras should make their way to Canada each year, with a price tag of $70 000.  The price makes the car very comparable to the Porsche Cayman.
