Lotus Cars is a British car company that manufactures racing and sports cars. Recently, Lotus Cars released the new 2012 Exige with a new 3.5-liter V6 engine.

Since December 2010, the European market has not seen any Exige models on sale due to the falling out of its 1.8-liter V4 engine at the emissions tests. The car industry believes that Lotus Cars CEO, Dany Bahar, is currently improving the Lotus’ present line up before the 2013 models, starting with the much awaited Esprit model, roll in.

The redesigned front of the 2012 Exige is so evident. According to Donato Coco, head of Lotus’ design, the overall layout of the current Lotus models appear to be “too weak.” Coco aims to give the new models a bolder, meaner look through the inspirations he got from the new sports cars featured on the Paris’ motor show last year.

Bahar said in a statement that the Exige, Evora, and Elise models will all get over 150 enhancements including tweaks in the quality of the cars’ interiors.

Enthusiasts and car experts alike agree that the inclusion of a V6 engine to the Evora and Exige models will open new opportunities for Lotus with its sports coupe models. The new V6 engine comes with two power output options, 276bhp and 345bhp, along with an automatic transmission.

We are still waiting for official word when and where the brand new 2012 Lotus Exige with its V6 engine will make its first official debut to the automotive world.

There have been a lot of talk about a Porsche concept car model that will rival the 3-door Range Rover Evoque. Now that we have seen the recently leaked renderings of the rumored Porsche model, things just got more interesting.

According to sources, the Porsche Cajun will be patterned after the Audi Q5 SUV and is expected to debut two years from now. There’s also talk that a 3-door coupe model of Cajun is already in production.

Based on the leaked design renderings, the Cajun coupe reeks strongly of the Porsche 911 model. The raised ride height shown in the Cajun rendering suggests that the 3-door coupe version will definitely look distinguished from the 5-door version. The Cajun’s interior will get some snazzy climate control features, an instrument pack, and an auxiliary gear switch to set it apart from the Audi Q5 SUV.

Under the hood, the Cajun will ride with Audi engines that have been fine-tuned to fit a Porsche in a four-wheel drive platform. The engine would most probably be a V-4 or V-6 in both petrol and diesel.
The Porsche Cajun will be the German automaker’s fifth product lineup. The new model is expected to help Porsche reach the target annual sales of 150,000 cars. The production of the Porsche Cajun in the Leipzig facility will create more jobs in their facility located in Germany, a total of 1000 jobs at the most. At present, the Volkswagen facility in Hannover district is in charge of the Panamera body’s construction and paint finish.
