It's just a Photoshop mockup I assume? Lotus were supposed to be going for the premium-sportscar market I thought, £50k+

Its supposed to be based on the IFR Aspid.

I did ask on Blatchat but no responses about what actually happened to them:

If Lotus build that they've lost the plot. They would have as much chance selling that as they would taking sales away from Ferrari if they do as rumoured and build a £100k plus car. They should stick to doing what they are good at building Elise/ Exige type cars or maybe design a 7 competitor from scratch. Look at their recent new models. How many Evoras or Europas has anyone seen? I haven't seen one.
