As a true small high powered race car, the Exige from Lotus is closely tied to it’s smaller sister, the Elise. The difference lies in it’s rigid roof and it’s slightly more powerful motor, with 30 extra horsepower, which is not negligeable, considering the already more than favourable weight/power ratio of this vehicle. Of course, the Exige is more at home on a racetrack than on the highway, where the compromise between comfort and the practical aspect are mostly felt..
