British carmaker Lotus has revealed what could be the ultimate track car ever made. The F1 inspired single seat race-car called Lotus Exos T125 will be available to super-rich private buyers who can take it out for a spin on race tracks around the world. The T125 is not road legal and can be driven on the track only.
The Lotus T125 is powered by a 631bhp Cosworth V8 racing engine which redlines at a dizzying 10,300rpm and is said to offer near GP2 levels of performance. The car weighs just 650kg which gives it a tremendously high power-weight ratio.
In its home market it will cost a whopping £650,000 (Rs. 4.8 crore) and will be Lotus’s “halo model” much like Ferrari’s 599XX. Only 25 T125s will ever be built and bookings are open now with deliveries set to begin by April 2011. Who says money can’t buy happiness?
