Here's an interesting perspective on the Emira vs Elise. The size difference is rather large!

Wow! That's a bit like original BMC Mini vs BMW Mini! (Or 70s 911 vs 2021...) I'd be really interested to see the emira and the McLaren MP4-12c side by side for comparison; I'm guessing the Lotus might be similar width, slightly taller and slightly shorter?

That would be cool to a McLaren MP4 or 570s side by side. They are very close in specs:

---
2014 McLaren MP4-12C: Dimensions: 178″ L x 75″ W x 47″ H

2021 McLaren 570s: Dimensions: 178″ L x 76″ W x 47″ H

2022 Lotus Emira Dimensions: 173.7" L x 74.6" x W 48.2" H

Ah, great info Supersix, thank you! So the Emira is indeed a similar width, slightly taller and slightly shorter than the MP4-12C.
