That’s why the Evora is so much larger—21.9 inches longer, with a 10.9-inch stretch in the wheelbase—putting it on par with more mainstream sports cars such as Porsche’s 911 and Cayman. Roughly five inches shorter than a 911, the Evora still houses a similarly sized (i.e., tiny) back seat, which is optional and seems adequate for little people and children up to 10 years old.
In front, even this six-foot-five-inch driver—Lotus’s claimed design target—had to slide the seat forward a couple of inches from its most rearward position, and the amply padded, leather Recaro seats were comfortable throughout a 250-mile drive. Easing entry and exit are narrower doorsills and a seating position that is 2.6 inches higher than the Elise’s. But the footwell is still narrow enough to require a miniature dead pedal.
