* * * * * I am no expert, however think they have to take more time for a adapted routing of the exhaust and the ECU programming for the autobox steering. I do not think they will lower the 400 hp, this would be a disaster, therefore they need more time to solve this problem. I believe that they...

* * * * * Rather simple I fear: The V6 manual emissions for the Emira with it's 400hp are up to the new allowed limits. The V6 auto in the Evora had higher emission as the manual......... This fact will today for the Emira auto a decisive hurdle, difficult to overcome. The undermentioned...

* * * * * For the Evora the CO2 emissions of the automatic's were higher as the speed box....... The undermentioned figures probably give an indication for the reason why the Emira V6 is limited to only 400 hp (due to CO2 emission limitations ?)..... EVORA 400...

* * * * * Posted July 25, 2021................ Snorkel...: So, any thoughts about heat management of this turbo engine? TomE........: Russell Carr said heat management was a key design challenge and I think they're well aware of the heat-related issues and limitations on Evora, particularly...

* * * * * I think that full tuning of the AMG i4 will turn out as wishful thinking / restricted because the present set up in the Emira is / was already problematic and limited due to limits on heat dissipation

* * * * * I do not agree, however also believe that the actual i4 problems are more severe than we "know" now and much bigger and more elaborate as initially expected by Lotus. I also fear that the cooperation with the German AMG supplier is not so flexible as necessary and expected by Lotus and...

* * * * * Could be a general Toyota problem with availability of / and or Toyota needs automatic gear boxes themselves due to excessive increases of Toyota delivery times of several models. Possibly extra severe now for Lotus if they did not reserve sufficient auto's because initial V6-auto...

* * * * * Is The Mercedes-AMG M139 Engine Future-proof? Probably Not This high specific-output plan from Mercedes could backfire. The idea was chosen to reduce the environmental impact. However, there’s a possibility that the M139 could be killed sooner than you think. At the moment for...
