Lotus Eco Elise: just as sporty, but even greener
The Lotus Eco Elise is a greener version of the regular Elise. However, it's not about reducing emissions. Rather than modifying the engine, Lotus engineers decided to replace several key materials by renewable, environmentally-friendly ones, including hemp, eco wool and sisal. These materials have been carefully analyzed in order to make sure that they effectively mitigate the Elise's impact on Mother Nature.
