2013 Lotus Evora S to Get Automatic


For the first time since the introduction of the supercharged Evora S, buyers will have the option of choosing between the standard six-speed manual transmission and Lotus’s Intelligent Precision Shift six-speed automatic.

The IPS six-speed transmission can be operated in four settings: a fully automatic mode; a manual mode with gear changes selected by steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters; a fully automatic sport mode that increases throttle response, quickens shift times, holds gears longer, and raises the thresholds for stability control and electronic aids; and a manual sport mode that gives the driver full control over the transmission using the paddle shifters. 

Although the automatic is new to the Evora S, it’s been available on naturally aspirated Evoras since 2012. The automatic Evora S will be available beginning this October.
