British sports car maker Lotus has confirmed plans to unveil a heavily revised version of its Evora at the Geneva Motor Show next March.
Lotus CEO Jean-Marc Gales revealed the news in an interview with Autocar. Specific details weren’t discussed, but the new Evora will boast about 15 percent more power and be stripped of some weight. The car will also feature enhanced styling both inside and out.

The new Evora is expected to be U.S.-legal. The last-generation of the car was sold under a temporary exemption, which expired for the new model year.
In addition to the update, Lotus is also planning a high-performance Cup version of the new Evora. That model will shed even more weight and could arrive with a few more ponies under the hood.
Though farther off, Lotus is still eying a sporty crossover model that could help boost the company’s annual sales from today’s 2,000 units to around 10,000 units.
