Lotus has officially released the 2016 Exige Sport 350 Roadster.<\/p>\n

The new Exige officially took its bow at the Geneva Motor Show, but we now have the full details of the car thanks to the official statement from Lotus. <\/p>\n

The Exige Sport 350 Roadster follows in the footsteps of the coupe variant of the car and follows Lotus’ design philosophy of lightweight, moderate horsepower cars.<\/p>\n

Power for the Exige 350 Roadster is provided by a supercharged 3.5-liter V6 engine that produces 345 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission which Lotus claims has been heavily revised over previous gearboxes. <\/p>\n

Thanks to its lightweight construction and 345 horsepower the Exige Sport 350 will hit 60 mph from standstill in just 3.7 seconds on the way to a top speed of 150 mph. <\/p>\n\r\n
