In November 1972, the Lotus Esprit concept car was introduced at the Turin Auto Show.

In November 1993, The official word is given to designers at Hethel. They have 27 months to come up with the V8 engine for the next gen Esprit. The Lotus 918 is the result.

If you check out my site from time to time, I have some Lotus related ephemerids that pop up in the lower left under the Lotus News column.

Happy Lotusing
