Lotus have announced they will build a limted run of less than a hundred cars. First customer cars are expected in 2005. The will use the K-series from the Elise 135R. The car features a wider track (2½" front and rear) and a wheelbase stretched by 3". To counteract the extra length which is mainly at the front of the car, the car has inboard suspension at the front. Wider 17" and 18" wheels are used helping both the look of the car and the grip. The construction methods employed mean that the bodywork over the wheels can be removed simply, leaving a car for track days, which looks remarkable like the 340R.
