When it comes to hybrid and/or electric cars, these cars are not always the first one's consumers immediately flock to you--mostly because they don't believe that these cars are actually cars at all but instead just generic versions of an average vehicle. However, when the Lotus Evora 414E comes into the picture, this car is enough to convince any skeptic that hybrid cars are not in any way generic, sub-par vehicles. Packed with two electric motors that independently drive each rear wheel with a single-sped transmission integrated into a common housing, it's no wonder you would choose a hybrid dealer for this car over any Greenville Ford dealer or Indiana Chevrolet dealer.
With each motor providing 204 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque to each wheel allows excellent torque vectoring for enhanced performance, low speed maneuverability, and parking ease. Not only does torque steering improve these features, it also helps high-speed, straight-line travel. Now you may not think about all of these great things when your hybrid sports car is accelerating from 0-60 mph in under 4 seconds, but they are happening all within a single speed that simulates a 7-speed paddle, quick-shift gear change with a dual clutch transmission.
Not only does this car drive, and look like a conventional sports car--it also sounds like one! This is a great make-up for it not being one. Packed with all of the great features of being a hybrid and also mimicking your favorite brand of sports cars can quite possibly be enough for the consumer market that demands quality and more. So don't keep on waiting and ogling this car on it's picture and video--figure out how you can get one today!
