Dani Bahar boasts: the Esprit will be a "purer" car than the Ferrari 458 Italia or McLaren MP4-12C

Little by little, Dani Bahar is “letting his hair down“, especially in his latest statements made in an exclusive interview granted to the guys at Autocar. Among his latest remarks, we must pay special attention to those that point directly at direct rivals such as the Ferrari 458 Italia or the McLaren MP4-12C

Before getting to the truly curious part, I would like to tell you about the small step back that Dani Bahar has just taken and which, while initially he wanted to abandon that small market in which Lotus has focused for many years, we have now learned that the small Exige and the 2Eleven will have successors in the short term, something that will undoubtedly please all the brand’s fans.

Because of this, for now one thing must be very clear: Lotus will continue to offer the vehicles that until now had made it famous among its followers. On the other hand, the company remains willing to radically change its market, and because of this the CEO of the Hethel company took care to clarify the future of the Esprit, a vehicle that will be “purer” than its equivalents from Ferrari or McLaren.

According to the latest statements, the Esprit will be a sensation-driven supercar, something that, according to Dani Bahar, its future direct rivals have left behind along the way. We will see how all this turns out once Lotus puts its cards on the table.
