The Lotus Esprit is a British sports car that was produced by Lotus Cars from 1976 to 2004. It was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro and is widely regarded as one of the most iconic sports cars of the 20th century.
The Esprit was powered by a range of engines over the years, including a 2.0-liter inline-four, a 2.2-liter inline-four, and a 3.5-liter V8. It also featured advanced suspension and braking systems, with four-wheel independent suspension and disc brakes on all four wheels.
The Lotus Esprit was known for its exceptional handling and performance, with a top speed of up to 175 mph and acceleration from 0 to 60 mph in as little as 4.7 seconds. Its aerodynamic fiberglass body and mid-engine layout made it a popular choice among sports car enthusiasts of the time.
The Esprit was also featured in a number of popular films and TV shows, including the James Bond film "The Spy Who Loved Me," where it famously transforms into a submarine. Its unique design and exceptional performance make it a sought-after classic car today
