Lotus Elise SC
Overview
The 2009 Elise SC's pure handling and extraordinary performance is like driving a street-legal race car. This multi-award-winning roadster has been given a serious power boost with a specially designed M45 Eaton rotor pack non-intercooled supercharger. The resulting performance is an astonishing 0-60 in 4.4 seconds and 0-100 in 10.7 seconds.
In keeping with its role as a supremely fast road car - rather than an extreme track machine - the Elise's throttle response is very progressive yet very direct, creating a measured and refined driving experience. And the fuel economy is an impressive 26 MPG highway.
The 2009 Elise SC is engineering proof that progress is unstoppable.
