Featherweight Luxury Supercars

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Lotus Evora GT410 Sport is Designed For Low Weight & High Speed

— January 15, 2018 — Autos
UK-based automotive stalwart Lotus has unveiled its latest and greatest luxury supercar in the form of the Lotus Evora GT410 Sport, a high-performance vehicle that is designed to make Lotus enthusiasts forget about the impressive Evora Sport 410.

Much of the performance upgrades available with the Evorta GT410 Sport have to do with its ultra-lightweight construction, which makes ample use of carbon fiber as well as intelligent engineering such as a shrunk rear wing for reduced downforce.

This combination of intelligent material use and thoughtful structural design allow this luxury supercar to combine the best merits of a lightweight body and a heavy supercharged engine, a fine example of comprehensive automotive engineering designed to please car enthusiasts with a need for speed. This is a vehicle that squarely targets the high end of the already exclusive high-performance supercar segment.
Trend Themes
1. Carbon Fiber Construction - The use of carbon fiber in automotive construction presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for manufacturers to create high-performance vehicles with reduced weight and improved fuel efficiency.
2. Shrunk Rear Wings - Intelligent structural design, such as shrunk rear wings, is a trend that presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for manufacturers to reduce downforce and improve aerodynamics without sacrificing performance.
3. Lightweight Body and Heavy Engine Combo - The combination of a lightweight body and heavy supercharged engine, as seen in the Lotus Evora GT410 Sport, is a trend that presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for manufacturers to create high-performance vehicles that deliver both speed and efficiency.
Industry Implications
1. Automotive Manufacturing - The automotive manufacturing industry can capitalize on trends in carbon fiber construction, shrunk rear wings, and lightweight body and heavy engine combos to create luxury supercars that appeal to enthusiasts seeking high performance and improved fuel efficiency.
2. Carbon Fiber Manufacturing - The carbon fiber manufacturing industry can capitalize on the trend towards carbon fiber construction in automotive manufacturing by developing new materials and methods to improve performance, reduce weight, and expand the use of carbon fiber in cars.
3. Aerospace Manufacturing - The aerospace manufacturing industry can capitalize on trends in lightweight construction and intelligent structural design to improve aerodynamics and fuel efficiency in aircraft with minimal impact on performance.
