Lotus Evora 400 Launched: A Detailed Review

Lotus Evora 400 Launched: A Detailed Review

Kuala Lumpur: After making a global debut at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show, Lotus Evora 400 is finally here in Malaysia at the Lotus showroom in Jalan Damansara. Earlier in August 2015, Lotus Cars Malaysia gave a glimpse of this car on its official Facebook page. Later in September, it was confirmed that Evora 400 has left its factory and is on its way to respective dealers. After such a long wait, Malaysians would finally be able to get up close and personal with this sports car. Going by the recent trend, one can make out that the outlook for Lotus in Malaysia has been changing year by year. Last year, Lotus Elise Great Britain and Lotus Elise 220 Cup were also launched in Malaysia. This hints towards expansion plans of Lotus Cars Malaysia with the expectation of break even sales or even some profit in current year.
