Commence bombing run

Lotus has officially unveiled the limited edition Exige Scura (aka Dark Stealth) in Tokyo.

Featuring a matte black paint scheme with high gloss ‘Phantom Black' stripes, the Stealth looks ready to pound the road into submission.  Elsewhere, the black theme continues as the front splitter, side scoops, and rear spoiler are constructed out of carbon fiber.

Power comes from a supercharged 1.8-liter engine with 191 kW (260 hp) and 236 Nm (174 lb-ft) of torque. Backed up by a six-speed manual transmission, the Stealth accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 4.1 seconds before topping out at 245 km/h (152 mph). Despite this epic performance, the engine only consumes 8.5L/100km (26.7 mpg US) while emitting 199 grams of CO2 per kilometer.

Production will be limited to 35 units. Pricing starts at £45,000 in the UK, €60,000 in Germany, €61,885 in Italy, and €61,200 in France.
