Questions

Is the Lotus Emira 2.0 365 or the Lotus Emira 3.5 V6 400 faster?
The Lotus Emira 3.5 V6 400. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 12.11 s to the Lotus Emira 2.0 365's 12.26 s, a margin of 0.15 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 3.72 s against 3.93 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Lotus Emira 2.0 365 0-60 time?
The Lotus Emira 2.0 365 reaches 60 mph in 3.93 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 12.26 s at 116.2 mph.
What is the Lotus Emira 3.5 V6 400 0-60 time?
The Lotus Emira 3.5 V6 400 reaches 60 mph in 3.72 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 12.11 s at 117.0 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Lotus Emira 2.0 365 trips the lights at 116.2 mph and the Lotus Emira 3.5 V6 400 at 117.0 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 2 of 2 for the Lotus Emira 2.0 365 and 2 of 2 for the Lotus Emira 3.5 V6 400. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
