The Lotus Europa S follows the core Lotus philosophy of performance
The Lotus Europa S follows the core Lotus philosophy of performance
through light weight enabling this refined and very high performing GT car
to weigh just 995 kg. This low weight has been obtained through the clever
use of advanced and high tech materials including an extruded and bonded
aluminium chassis, composite body panels and a very advanced composite
energy absorbing front crash structure.
When compared to the award winning Lotus Elise, the Europa S has a
larger boot / luggage compartment and easier cabin access, resulting from
lower chassis sides and a higher roof line. Coupled with luxuries such as
full leather interior, driver and passenger airbags and carpets all as
standard, Lotus has created a �Business Class� driving experience.
However, the Europa S is not a derivative of the Elise or the Exige
and has been allocated a separate Lotus type number of Type 121 - the Elise
and Exige are both Type 111.
The new mid-engined coupe will deliver high levels of performance
from a high torque (263 Nm or 194 lbft at 4200 rpm) 2.0-litre turbo engine
producing 149 kW (200 hp or 203 PS) at 5400rpm. The Lotus Europa S achieves
around 90% of its maximum torque at only 2000 rpm to give �super car� levels
of acceleration from low engine speeds, propelling the car from 0 -96 km/h
(60 mph) in around 5.5 seconds, and 160 km/h (100 mph) in around 14 seconds.
Maximum speed is approximately 225 km/h (140 mph). Being a Lotus, the Europa
S has a phenomenal power to weight ratio of 201 hp / tonne (204 PS / tonne
The new Lotus Europa S, a Grand Tourer (GT) inspired two-seater will
The new Lotus Europa S, a Grand Tourer (GT) inspired two-seater will
provide Lotus customers with a spectacular sportscar with significantly
enhanced levels of touring and cruising capability. It will provide drivers
with higher levels of practicality and refinement to complement the
simplicity of the Lotus Elise and Exige models.

2005 Yamaha Virago 250
Bigger is not always better. Case in point, the Virago 250: a smaller, lightweight cruiser packed with big-bike amenities. In fact, it’s one of the only 250cc cruisers with the hot-blooded rumble of a genuine V-twin engine, which leaves us with one simple truth: The only thing more beautiful than the way the Virago looks is the way it works.
Meet the Virago 250, a feature-packed, lightweight cruiser.
The Virago 250 is a quarter-liter mount that the magazine press dubbed, affectionately, a "kick-butt little cruiser." We have been saying that for years, and so have the multitudes of motorcyclists who've discovered the joy of cruising aboard one.
