The all-electric Lotus Evija hypercar made its dynamic public debut at Goodwood SpeedWeek at the weekend.  The Evija was in action on the historic race track and was taking part in a variety of high-octane activities, including the Supercar Run.

Three pre-production examples of the Evija supported SpeedWeek, one complete in a vibrant Lotus Solaris Yellow finish and two prototypes wrapped in stunning black and gold, recalling iconic Lotus liveries of the past.

The prototypes also featured a stylised image of the famous West Sussex circuit, accompanied by the words Lotus x Goodwood: Creating History since 1948 – acknowledging the year of the very first Lotus car and the first motorsport event at Goodwood.

Gavan Kershaw, director of vehicle attributes, Lotus, said: “We’re having a great time demonstrating the Evija here at Goodwood.  Bringing the cars to an event like this is a welcome break from the hundreds of hours spent on proving grounds, where there’s a huge amount of open space and long straights to test the car’s performance limits. Goodwood is a fast and flowing circuit with numerous undulations in the surface, and so is a fantastic test and demonstration for the Evija as it’s the type of environment where many owners will use the car.”
