Lotus 3-Eleven 2015 - 2019

The Lotus 3-Eleven is an ultra-lightweight British roadster designed to deliver a streamlined and dynamic driving experience, embodying the minimalist philosophy of the Norwich-based brand. Launched in 2011 as a spiritual evolution of the legendary Seven and Super Seven, this model embodies Lotus's endless quest to combine extreme lightness and accessible performance, with a featherweight approaching 700 kilograms. The Lotus 3-Eleven story is built around a radical proposition: return to the very essence of motorsport by eliminating all superfluity, offering a minimalist cockpit, optional carbon fiber bodywork and direct, uncompromising mechanics. The Lotus 3-Eleven model has experienced several generations and variants, including the Series 1 and Series 2, each refining aerodynamics and chassis responsiveness to improve circuit and road performance. With a supercharged 3.5-liter engine delivering over 400 horsepower, the 3-Eleven rivals vehicles far heavier and positions itself as a thoughtful alternative to brands such as Ariel Atom or BAC Mono. Throughout Lotus 3-Eleven generations, the brand has perfected aerodynamic geometry, refined suspensions and optimized transmission to deliver a versatile machine, capable of dominating a track as well as tackling winding roads. A true manifesto of returning to fundamentals, this car remains an unmistakable reference for purists seeking authentic automotive sensation without artifice.
