Lotus Evora 400 prices announced

With deliveries due to begin this coming August, Lotus has revealed that the new Evora 400 will cost from £72,000 in the UK. By comparison the Porsche Cayman GT4 - arguably its closest rival - is slightly cheaper at £64,451.

Included in the Evora’s specification are a 400 bhp (298 kW / 406 PS) supercharged 3.5 litre V6 engine, a six-speed manual gearbox, a Torsen limited-slip differential and AP Racing composite brake discs.

Tyre pressure monitoring, heated front seats, automatic air conditioning, satellite navigation, rear parking sensors and a reversing camera also appear on the extensive standard equipment list.

There isn’t a plethora of options, but those that are available could rapidly increase the invoice amount. Among them are a six-speed automatic transmission (£2,000), cruise control (£300), metallic paint (£900) and leather or Alcantara upholstery packages (£2,500 each).

Starting prices for other key markets have been confirmed too:

· United States: $89,900 (plus local sales taxes)

· Japan: ¥13,200,000
· China: CN¥1,318,000

Alfa MiTo TwinAir arrives

Carbon dioxide emissions are only 98 g/km, a level that brings numerous benefits for UK drivers including zero road tax, a full discount on the London Congestion Charge and qualification for the lowest company car benefit-in-kind rate. Fuel economy is also decent and, according to the official figures, a TwinAir-powered MiTo will manage 67.3 mpg (4.2 l/100km) on the combined cycle. Impressive maybe, but still some way off the 78.5 mpg (3.6 l/100km) of the existing 1.3 JTDM-2 diesel MiTo. However, any
