: Lotus Exige Scura Special Edition Goes to Tokyo : PartSmartSA November 29, 2009, 05:50:44 PM The Lotus Exige Scura or the Exige Stealth Special Edition (for the Japanese) is being readied for a Tokyo debut and as per the company officials it will be a stunning vehicle which will offer an adrenaline fueled experience — something we can’t fight with. The name ‘Scura’ means dark in Italian, and it’s not hard to understand why the name was chosen as it has been finished with a matte black paint with high gloss ‘Phantom Black’ triple stripes.
The Exige Scura is a little monster with a dynamic design that will be built in a limited edition of only 35 units which will be sold across the world so you can be rest assured of the exclusivity factor. Under the hood will be a supercharged 1.8-litre engine with VVTL-I which sports 260hp and 236Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm. The engine would be assisted by a 6-speed manual gearbox helping the Exige Scura to reach 100km/h in 4.1 seconds on its way to a max speed of 245km/h. As far as the economy is concerned the Scura furnishes a combined fuel consumption figure of 8.5 litres per 100km |
