All 3 Lotus Exige Generations
Each generation deals in its rarity tier’s alloy with its engine disc, lead specs, and first spotter record. Click into any generation for full trims and market figures.
Series 3 was a different animal: Lotus swapped the Exige's four-cylinder for a supercharged V6, making it the biggest-engined car in the Elise/Exige family.
Lotus's front splitter, hardtop and rear wing turned the Series 2 Exige into a real downforce machine — almost 45 kg of it at 100 mph, versus just 5.9 kg on the Elise it was built from.
Only 604 Series 1 Exiges were ever built, and Lotus then left the nameplate dormant for three full years before the Series 2 arrived in 2004.
