Though Lotus has been making the same car for roughly three decades now, it’s hard not to appreciate the raw look of the 2005 Exige, even today.
This Lotus Exige Is A 750-horsepower Hill Climb Conqueror
This 1700-pound Lotus Exige-shaped race car is among the fastest hillclimb cars in South Africa, having set a record-blazing run up the Knysna Simola Hillclimb course in late 2017. The car was once a road legal Lotus, but every component in the car has been modified in the pursuit of ever-faster sprint times. The…
The Lotus Exige 380 Is A Little Lighter, A Little Faster And A Lot More Expensive
The 2017 Lotus Exige 380 is a shot straight down Main Street of the company’s known ethos: more power and less weight than the last car. Specifically, this little monster has been dialed to 375 horsepower and 2,424 pounds. But I still think the exposed-linkage stick shift is the coolest feature.
Lotus Wants To Bring The Next Lotus Elise And Exige To The United States
Brothers, sisters, rejoice! The wail of a new Lotus Elise and a new Lotus Exige are both on the horizon! Listen closely, listen carefully, and then listen a lot – a whole big lot – more longer. Keep listening. And listening. For years. Because the Lotus CEO said that while we are getting two new Lotii to replace the…
The Lotus Exige Sport 350: Plaid Seats And A Sexy Manual? Sold

Lotus Exige S Club Racer: So Hardcore I'm Amazed It Has Seats
The Lotus Elise just celebrated its 20th birthday by losing a bunch of weight. Happy birthday, Elise! But Lotus wasn’t done there. They’ve also hauled out an even more hardcore version of the Elise’s already-hardcore Exige. Meet the Exige S Club Racer.
But What About A Lotus Exige As A Snow Car?
Sure sure, a five-liter Caprice makes an excellent snow car. But maybe that thing is a little too civilized and sane. What about a Lotus?
Getting In And Out Of A Lotus Is A Lot Harder Than You Think
You may think we're joking when we talk about how hard it is to get in and out of small, mid-engine, two-seater sports cars with high window sills. The truth of the matter is, it really is pretty much impossible without an amputation along the way. And it's usually a head that has to come off.
The Lotus Exige S Makes Other Sports Cars Seem Half-Assed
To me, the Lotus Exige has always been kind of like Michael Jackson in the "Bad" video. You know how other sports cars act like they're so pure and hardcore? The Exige has always been here to tell them "You ain't BAD! You ain't NOTHIN'!"
These Are The Purist's Supercars
If you think about it, it's pretty clear that they don't make supercars for the hardcore fanatics. What the companies responsible for creating our dreamcars have in mind today are Chinese millionaires, Russian playboys, and some emission, noise and pedestrian safety regulations. Maybe some retired dentists as well.
The Lotus Exige V6 Cup Race Car Will Be Available In The U.S.
The Exige S is yesterday's news. Lotus will launch a lighter, track-ready version at this weekend's Lotus Festival at Brands Hatch, which is occurring simultaneously with Pebble Beach and Woodward for some reason.

The Ronin Exige, aka the self-proclaimed 'World's Fastest Lotus', is a supercharged and turbocharged 680-horsepower monster. But yesterday morning it was put into the wall of California's 101. Now the owner claims it wasn't his fault — or the car's.
Lotus has lost its Frankfurting mind
Lotus just pubbed a post and video teasing what may be a facelifted 2012 Lotus Exige on its media site. The headline of the post? "The Lotus Fight: What The F...rankfurt?" It's making us continue to wonder "What The F-" as well.
Lotus mourns death of fun with Matte Black final Exige
It's the end of an era — the last of the Lotus "comeback cars." Lotus will reveal the Exige Matte Black Final Edition – an exclusive bit for North America — at the Pebble Beach car-o-thon next week.

Nothing But a Lotus Exige And a Winding Road

Auto Europe: The Happiest Place On Earth
There's a dealership along Woodward, halfway between 14 and 15 Mile roads, it's called Auto Europe and among their currently-offered nameplates: Noble, Austin Healey, Mini, Jaguar, Porsche, Lotus and Ferrari. It's like a candy store for car nuts.
This Is Why People Think Lotus Drivers Are Asshats
What's the bigger crime here? Blocking two handicapped spots and the entry path or doing it for Potbelly's and Starbucks? Florida plates are not coincidental. Shame too, nobody wants to key a Lotus Exige. Asshat. (Thanks for the tip James!)
