"Can one sportscar have it all? The Evora comes awfully close to perfection, offering famous Lotus handling and performance in a refined, modern package. Lotus’ lightweight manta is on display in the Evora’s lightweight bonded aluminum skeleton, a high-tech way to achieve the telepathic driver feedback Lotus has always been known for. It’s also more livable than Lotus’ smaller offering, making it a high-performance sportscar that you don’t have to be a contortionist to squeeze into. Not that the Evora’s gone soft; forward motivation is briskly provided by a refined V6 sourced from Toyota, recalibrated for high performance and making a healthy 276 horsepower. The sophistication extends to the styling, which is sophisticated and restrained, while at the same time looking fast without resorting to lots of boy-racer bobbles and add-ons. And don’t forget that the sleek lines are wrapped around both a mid-mounted engine and a pair of rear seats, accomplishing the incredibly difficult task of being a useable 2+2 that looks fantastic. You really can have it all with an Evora."—Official description[1]
The 2009 Lotus Evora is a British sports car by Lotus that appears in Forza Motorsport 3 and Forza Motorsport 4.

Synopsis[]
The Lotus Evora was revealed in July 2008. The name is derived from the words Evolution, VOgue, and auRA. It was built with an aim of being a more practical road car that would appeal to the mainstream. It's currently the only Lotus model with a 2+2 configuration, although it's also offered in a two-seater configuration, referred to as the "Plus Zero" option. It was powered by a Toyota sourced 3.5l N/A V6.
In 2010, the Lotus Evora S was revealed with a supercharged version of the 3.5l V6 and a new exhaust. It was replaced by the Lotus Evora 400 in 2015. More variants of the Evora appeared: the Lotus Evora Sport 410 in 2016, the limited production Evora GT430 in 2017 and the Lotus Evora GT410 Sport and GT430 Sport later in 2017.
