About the 2012 Lotus Exige S V6

The S V6 transformed the Exige from lightweight purist to supercar slayer, cramming Toyota's 3.5-liter supercharged V6 into the familiar chassis. With 345 horsepower on tap, this was the first Exige to truly challenge exotic cars on pure performance while maintaining the brand's handling DNA. The V6's torque delivery made the car more accessible to a broader range of drivers without diluting the core experience. Russell Carr's design accommodated the larger engine with functional cooling vents and aerodynamic refinements. The S V6 represents a pivotal moment in Lotus history, proof that the company could scale up performance without losing its identity. As the foundation for all subsequent V6-powered Exiges, these models have strong collector appeal, offering supercar performance at a fraction of the cost while remaining true to Lotus principles.
