The Japanese motor sports version of the K20A 2.0 litre Honda engine, together with a close ratio 6-speed gear box and lsd, form the basis of our successful "Elise 220R" concept.
The Honda engine already reaches approx 90% of the maximum torque at 3000 rpm and convinces through its spectacular power development up to just under 9000 rpm. It builds a perfect unit in combination with the close ratio 6-speed gear box.
The forged pistons, perfectly balanced short engine and light steel fly wheel of the Japanese motor sports version guarantee high power output and torque even in its daily use.
The specific fitting requirements in the Lotus Elise, combined with a modified induction and exhaust system, necessitate the use of a freely programmable ECU. The high durability and constant performance of the concept are achieved through special motor mounts made from durable alloy, an innovative engine torque mount, drive shafts manufactured from Chrome Vanadium steel and special drivebearings.
The Stack display system, which has been well tested on the race track and is permissible on the road, displays rev up to 10000 rpm and informs the driver of the engine temperature and pressure.
Unfortunatelly the JDM spec engines are not longer availeable as new. we use engines with low mileage of max 5000km
The concept is equally suitable for everyday use on the road as well as on the race track
Of 175 tested vehicles by the "Auto Bild Test & Tuning" the Elise 220R achieved the eighth place, even ahead of cars such as the Ferrari 360-Evoluzione or the Lamborghini Gallardo.
