This 400-hp beast is a symphony of power and precision that doesn’t hold back. Lotus Emira

But while the virtues of simplicity and minimized mass are well understood in the context of motorsport, they tend to be less appreciated in the street-car realm, where usability—despite what anyone might claim—almost always takes precedence over outright performance prowess.

As far as the interior is concerned, high-quality materials are paired with a fit and finish that’s on an entirely new level for Lotus.A peek in the cabin reveals more good news. The Evora’s utilitarian design and aftermarket-spec technology has been tossed in favor of an interior befitting a six-figure sports car. High-quality materials are paired with a fit and finish that’s on an entirely new level for Lotus, while the 12.3-inch digital-gauge cluster and 10.

All Emiras are outfitted with fixed dampers, regardless of specification, and considering the fact that this particular example boasts the Sport package—which includes a stiffer suspension tune and ultra-sticky Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 rubber—I expected a fairly abusive ride on the streets and highways of central Los Angeles. But aside from some road noise and an occasional tendency to tramline along grooves in the road , the Emira requires very few apologies as a potential daily driver.

Of course, it should come as no surprise that the Emira reveals its greatest strengths out in the canyons, where the perfectly weighed hydraulic steering rack responds instantly to inputs without feeling darty, and it communicates genuinely useful information through the steering wheel. In addition, body control is excellent, despite the inability to stiffen the chassis beyond its default setting, and the level of mechanical grip available is stunning.
